Manage episode 512296317 series 3664235
Feeling flat, foggy, or low on energy? It might not be you, it could be your hormones.
In this episode, we unpack testosterone optimization with practical insights and real-world experience. Discover why “normal” lab results often leave you feeling anything but, how free T and SHBG tell the real story, and the safest ways to use pellets, injections, or creams.
We dive into fertility-friendly options, safe hormone replacement, resistance training, nutrition, sleep, and sequencing hormones before medications like GLP‑1s to protect lean mass and energy. Plus, learn how recovery peptides and conservative strategies for women can improve mood, muscle, bone health, and libido without chasing extremes.
This episode is your roadmap to feeling high-functioning again.
