Are you curious about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and how it may ease your menopause symptoms? Ever felt confused or overwhelmed by the opposing information out there about HRT, but feel like it may be an option to consider?
Join us for an educational and empowering workshop designed to explore HRT as a possible option for your health journey.
In this workshop, you’ll discover the science behind HRT, as well as its benefits and side effects. You will hear a first-hand experience of someone who has undergone a HRT journey, and will be able to see samples of HRT options, like estrogen patches, creams, etc.
What to Expect:
- The Science Behind HRT: Learn about the history of HRT, from early studies to where we are now. We’ll break down the research, de-bunk false information, and explore how this therapy works in the body.
- Benefits & Side Effects: Discover the benefits of HRT (better sleep, energy boost, hot flash relief, and more) while also covering potential side effects so you can make an informed decision.
- Real-life stories and examples: Receive first-hand experience of HRT from Emily Coccia, owner of Ms. Moxie’s Moon Shop and HRT user. Emily will share her own personal journey with HRT and how she’s implemented it into her daily routine, what’s changed for the better, and what she’s learned along the way. Plus, get a chance to see actual samples and ways to apply hormones.
- Q&A and Community Support: Engage in an interactive Q&A session with our facilitators and fellow participants to address any lingering questions or concerns. Connect with like-minded individuals who are also on their journey with menopause and hormonal health.
Bonus Perk: Enjoy 10% off EVERYTHING in the shop before and after the event.
Come curious and leave feeling well-informed about HRT and if it's right for you!
