What if your low energy, brain fog, or poor sleep had more to do with your hormones than you realize?
In this episode, I sat down with Patricia Zamora, a nurse practitioner who helps men improve their health through hormone balance. We talked about how to raise testosterone naturally, when TRT might be a good option, and why some men still don’t feel great even if their lab numbers look normal.
Patricia shared why cardio is key for overall health, especially if you're on testosterone. We also covered how medications like Clomid and Enclomiphene work, and why many regular doctors aren’t fully trained in hormone therapy.
We wrapped up with simple habits that can make a big difference, like walking more and slowing down with breathing or mindfulness. If you’ve been feeling off and want to get back to feeling like yourself, this episode is a great place to start.
Key Takeaways:
-
TRT Isn’t Always the First Step.
-
Most doctors aren’t trained in hormone therapy. Don’t assume your GP is an expert.
-
