Does HRT Help You Lose Belly Fat?- Day 64

The Body Recomposition Revolution | Fat Loss and Strength for Women 35+

Show Notes

Does HRT help with weight loss, belly fat or muscle gain during perimenopause and menopause? And what’s the difference between estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, patches, pills and pellets? In Day 64 of the Body Recomposition Revolution, we break down the treatment options women hear about constantly but rarely get explained simply. We cover estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, HRT, patches vs. pills, testosterone pellets and non-hormonal options, plus why progesterone is generally needed with systemic estrogen if you have a uterus. And because this is a body recomposition podcast, we answer the big question: Will HRT actually help you lose belly fat, build muscle or look more toned? HRT is not a weight-loss treatment. But treating disruptive symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats may help you sleep, recover, train and feel better, which can make the habits that change your body easier to maintain.
