0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the You're Not Broken podcast today. This is a recorded lecture that I gave on how to prescribe hormone therapy. So it's about an hour of a lecture and then I do some Q&A at the end. So that'll seem a little more disjointed because I'm kind of chopping from from question to question. But lots of things about the different doses, the different routes, what is a contraindication,
0:22.5	what's not a contraindication, and tips and tricks for hormone therapy. So if you are a
0:28.7	prescriber or you just want a little in more depth, take a listen to this podcast. And I hope that
0:34.6	at least you'll find one or two things that you didn't know and you can share it
0:39.1	with other people. So thanks so much for coming to the You're Not Broken podcast. The second book,
0:45.4	The Menopause Moment, Hormones, Science and Mindset for Optimal Longevity is now available for
0:51.5	pre-order on both Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The book comes out
0:55.0	September 16th. And if you want to join me in person in Sedona in October, I have two spots left.
1:01.3	We're going to talk all things, hormones, sex med, social media, whatever you as a prescriber
1:06.4	want to know. And if you are not a prescriber, you just want to know more about all those things.
1:11.1	Come on along. We had two non-prescribers at our first retreat last year in 2024, and it was super
1:17.3	fun to have them. So only two slots left. That's Sedona. That's October. Check out the website
1:22.3	or my email for more information on that. I love you so much. And without further ado, a longer podcast today
1:28.9	talking all about hormone prescribing. Enjoy. Welcome to the You Are Not Broken podcast. I'm your host,
1:36.5	Dr. Kelly Casperson, a board certified jurologist, thought leader, and conversation starter on
1:42.4	midlife living, hormones, and sexuality.
1:45.7	Enjoy the show.
1:46.7	Thank you, everybody, for being here.
1:48.5	I wish, I can't see all of you, but I, Heather told me, I'm like, Heather, I can't tell
1:53.4	people how to prescribe hormones if they're still afraid of hormones.
1:56.0	And she assured me that you guys have had a lecture understanding the kerfuffle to call it very kindly
2:03.0	of the 2002 WHOI. But I can't do, I literally can't say let's start giving hormones without
