We’ll uncover the restorative potential of hormone replacement therapy and how it can reignite libido.

- Concerns about clitoral enlargement after receiving hormone pellets, its impact on sexual pleasure, and potential remedies.
- Inquiry about using BIEST cream for vaginal dryness and whether applying it to the outer labia yields similar effects without increasing the risk of yeast infections.
- Questioning whether vaginal intercourse should be pleasurable, considering a history of ovarian cysts, endometriosis, fibroid tumors, and adenomyosis, along with experiences of pain and bleeding with an IUD in place.
- What are the optimal hormone levels for weight loss and frequency of bloodwork?
- Discussion on experiences with different BHRT methods (troches vs. patches) and concerns about elevated estrone levels.
