The hardest part of midlife isn’t aging.
It’s realizing how many years you spent shrinking yourself.
Why does it take so long to realize this?

In my 20s, I wanted to be liked.
In my 30s, I wanted to be respected.
In my 40s and 50s? I just want peace…& I’m no longer apologizing for it.

Perimenopause came in like, “Let’s torture her with 67 symptoms.”
HRT said, “Get up. We’re not doing that today.”

Before HRT: I was convinced everyone was annoying.
After HRT: …okay, some of them still are, but now I don’t plot their demise.

Part 4: After my biopsy came back normal, I restarted HRT… but my symptoms STILL exploded. Low doses didn’t help, testosterone was refused, and I felt myself slipping again. Finding Midi Health changed everything. The right dose = I finally felt like me again. 💛

When I stopped the pill in early 2024, everything fell apart...but ultimately made sense. Brutal hot flashes, spotting, then months off hormones while waiting for a biopsy. My symptoms exploded, & I didn’t even recognize myself. No one connected the dots so I had to.

Cleared at my 6-week hysterectomy post-op today! 💛
After 3 months, an ER visit, surgery, and incredible care from Dr. Marie-Claire Leaf and Hoag/OCWMG, I’m feeling grateful, relieved, and ready to return to normal life.
Every woman deserves care like this. 💖

I thought gluten was my answer… but it was only one tiny piece.
After going off the pill, everything spiraled, heavy bleeding, ER visits, chest pain, coughing, migraines, all while doctors said “you’re fine.”
I wasn’t. No one mentioned perimenopause.

At 41, I had migraines, crying spells, & anger I didn’t understand. I was given hormones without education & spent years blaming “gluten accidents” for my pain. I now know it was perimenopause. Sharing more soon so no one feels alone...stay tuned!💛

Women do produce testosterone, and replacing what we lose in peri/menopause makes a huge difference. With the right clinician and dosing, I finally felt like myself again. 💖

After my hysterectomy, I learned I had adenomyosis, something I’d never even heard of. Years of pain finally made sense. We need more research, education, and awareness in women’s health so others don’t suffer without answers. 💖

Two days post-hysterectomy, & my heart is full.
Grateful for all the love & support:
for the kind messages,
for my friend Janelle sending dinner,
for my BFF April’s cozy purple linen PJs,
for my family taking care of me, the pups, & the house
for finally learning to receive help with an open heart

Surgery went well! ❤️ I’m home, resting, and surrounded by love (and pups on full-time snuggle duty 🐾).
Didn’t sleep much, but staying on top of meds every 3 hours was my silver lining 😅
Feeling sore, grateful, and hopeful that each day gets a little easier. 💕

Two years ago, I was googling symptoms at 2am
Brain fog. Mood swings. Doctors with no answers.
I felt alone & broken💔

-You don’t have to figure it out alone
-When women come together, everything changes
