There’s a powerful cultural shift happening around hormone enrichment for women. What was once seen merely as a “treatment to get through menopause” is now being recognized for what it truly is: a foundational tool for long-term vitality. We now understand that the aging process accelerates as sex hormones decline—and that decline begins as early as our 30s.
The modern perspective reframes hormone replacement not as a last resort, but as a proactive, regenerative approach to health</a >. Balanced hormones have the power to slow aging, support cellular renewal, prevent disease, and help us live fully, vibrantly, and intentionally as we age.
“Hormones aren’t just about managing symptoms—they’re about unlocking the energy, clarity, and resilience that help us feel like ourselves again.”</b >
— Dr. Sarah Daccarett, MD
Women deserve more than just symptom relief. We deserve to feel strong, clear, and confident in our bodies at every stage of life. And for many of us, restoring our hormones is the first step in reclaiming that right.
Why can’t current traditional formulations of HRT achieve this for women? What is the difference with Inner Balance’s modern approach?
HRT was designed decades ago for women who were no longer having a period (either menopausal or postmenopausal) and were designed to only help with debilitating symptoms like hot flashes or vaginal dryness. Traditional formulations like patches and pills aren’t capable of achieving whole body enrichment and they also have a lot of side effects.
A modern approach, like Inner Balance</a >, uses improved formulations to achieve a whole-body enrichment treatment for women. It is designed to help women with their periods, for younger women. Traditional formulations do not work for women under the age of 50 – most still have symptoms since they are not effective.</i ></b >
You are not broken. It could just be that your formulation of HRT isn’t designed for you. You are also not too young to start, too sensitive, or overreacting. What you’re experiencing is not a personal failing—it’s biology. And the beautiful truth is: it is something we can fix. When your hormones are enriched and aligned, your body remembers how to thrive. You begin to feel energized, clear-headed, emotionally grounded, and fully you again. Visualizing the potential outcomes of HRT can be inspiring. Here are real stories from women who have experienced transformative changes in their health and lives.
Every day, I encounter women who are searching for this, but don’t know the power of hormones and the impact they have on our health and wellbeing. These women also try everything else before hormones. It’s only after they have tried herbs, supplements, procedures, and everything else, do they seek help with hormones. Then they receive conflicting advice and face many challenges of hormonal enrichment and balancing. They give up hope of ever feeling better. I get it – it can be overwhelming, but the path to optimal health is within reach. The benefits of HRT are never ending. Here are 12 common signs that you may need it.
Hormone balance is the foundation to health, wellness & aging well.
Many women report the following benefits after starting HRT:
- Lighter, shorter, less painful periods – experience freedom from pain</a >.
- Enhanced Mental Clarity – say goodbye to brain fog</a >.
- Increased Energy – embrace each day with vigor.
- Emotional Stability – experience balanced moods.
- Restful Sleep – enjoy rejuvenating nights</a >.
- Revitalized Libido – rediscover intimacy</a >.
- Weight Management – achieve a healthier body composition</a >.
- Hydrated skin & hair – feel empowered and self-assured</a >.
- Metabolic fitness – start seeing results from diet & exercise</a >.
- PCOS resolution – get your period back and balance your testosterone
- Postpartum support – depression, anxiety & insomnia are not normal
- Endometriosis symptom resolution – treat heavy periods, pain, inflammation & bloating

Reduced Heavy Bleeding and Pain
“I was told birth control was my only option.” –Serena T.
Before: Serena suffered from debilitating periods—heavy bleeding, intense cramping, bloating and exhaustion. Her periods lasted over a week, with intense PMS leading up to them. Bleeding through a super absorbent tampon and pad every hour was normal for her. Doctors told her most of her adult life that it was normal. She had IV iron to replace iron stores at one point, and her constant fatigue was starting to become overwhelming.
After Inner Balance:
“Within weeks my bleeding became lighter and my cramping disappeared. My mood is so much better as well. I also noticed my sleep being more consistent. It’s only been 2 months and I can’t wait to see how things continue to get better.”
Why Inner Balance works:
The real driver of heavy, painful bleeding, inflammation and bloating and even PMS is hormonal imbalance. Specifically, low progesterone and progesterone resistance. There’s also a powerful metabolite of progesterone called DHP—dihydroprogesterone. DHP binds to uterine receptors longer and stronger than progesterone itself. It’s an anti-inflammatory powerhouse. It stabilizes the endometrial lining</a >. It also calms your immune system.
But here’s the thing: progestin—the synthetic version used in birth control—does not convert to DHP. It’s not real progesterone. So It doesn’t behave like real progesterone in the body. In fact, it often makes things worse. Worse yet, we’re constantly exposed to hormone-disrupting chemicals—plastics, fragrances, pesticides—that bind to the estrogen receptor and prevent our own estrogen from binding – throwing our natural balance off even more. The real problem? Most women today are deficient in progesterone—and even if you supplement with it, if your body can’t convert it to DHP, it won’t help much. That is why oral and topical progesterone are not as effective! Read about other signs of low progesterone here.
Resolving Endometriosis Symptoms
“I was told my only option was surgery and I suffered for years.” –Camila B.
Before: Camila had stage III endometriosis. She’d already had one surgery and still struggled with pain, bloating, and inflammation. She felt dismissed by traditional care and was continuously told that her only options were birth control or surgery. Her symptoms started when she was young and she was told that she was overreacting – that all women have painful periods.
After Inner Balance:
“When I started natural progesterone & estradiol therapy with Inner Balance, it was like my whole body exhaled. The pain became manageable within weeks and 6 months in, my pain is completely gone. I haven’t had a flare since I started. For the first time in years, I don’t feel like my body is fighting me. I feel like my body is a safe place.</b >”
Why Inner Balance works:
Birth control, IUDs, or surgery doesn’t treat the root cause, which is low progesterone – specifically low progesterone and progesterone resistance. There’s a powerful metabolite of progesterone called DHP—dihydroprogesterone. DHP binds to uterine receptors longer and stronger than progesterone itself. It’s anti-inflammatory. It stabilizes the endometrial lining. It also calms your immune system. Now, you might’ve heard that endometriosis is caused by “too much estrogen.” But that’s not entirely true. Estrogen is actually an essential, anti-inflammatory hormone—when it’s balanced by adequate progesterone. Read more about the myths of estrogen dominance here.
The real problem? Most women today are deficient in progesterone—and even if you supplement with it, if your body can’t convert it to DHP, it won’t help much. You need both estrogen and progesterone, in balance, in the right form, and delivered in a way your body can actually use. Which is why Inner Balance works and traditional HRT doesn’t.
Bloating, weight gain, hair loss, facial hair & excess testosterone (AKA: Polycystic ovarian syndrome)
“My Cycles Came Back and So Did My Hair” –Natalie R.
Before: Natalie had absent periods, persistent acne, and thinning hair—classic signs of PCOS. She was told to lose weight and fix her insulin resistance because that was the root cause. She was prescribed the pill, then spironolactone, then metformin, but nothing addressed the root issue. Her LH was elevated and so was her testosterone.
After Inner Balance:
“After starting, my cycles came back after just 5 months. My skin cleared over 6 months and I finally started losing weight after 10 months. At first I had severe bloating from the treatment, but after a supplement recommendation from the Inner Balance team, my bloating eventually got better. My LH is normal now, my testosterone is still high, but much much lower. I can’t wait to continue to heal the right way.
Why Inner Balance works:
PCOS is a metabolic imbalance caused by excess testosterone. What causes the ovaries to make too much testosterone? A hormone is released by the brain in the absence of progesterone called luteinizing hormone, or LH. Treatment of PCOS involves lowering LH and this will lower the production of testosterone. It is difficult to lose weight first and expect LH to lower. Restoring hormone balance in women is what treats insulin resistance, weight gain, bloating, and hair loss. Watch more stories.
Resolving Postpartum Symptoms
“I never felt normal again after my second baby.” –Rachel T.
Before: After her second baby, Rachel experienced severe depression, anxiety, irritability, hair loss, and bone-deep fatigue. Everyone told her it was “normal postpartum exhaustion,” but deep down she knew something wasn’t right. After a year of trying everything else, she tried Inner Balance.
After Inner Balance:
“Just two weeks after the starting dose,it felt like someone turned the lights back on. I was laughing again, bonding more deeply with my baby, and even had energy to cook and walk again. This wasn’t just healing—it was awakening.” I felt even stronger and slept even better after raising the dose with Inner Balance after a few months.
Why Inner Balance works:
Postpartum hormone crashes are real. A lot of women don’t regain what they used to make. . Supporting women enriching their hormones naturally can make the difference between barely surviving and truly thriving in motherhood. Watch more stories</a >.
Reclaiming Energy & Vitality
“I Haven’t Felt This Good in Years” –Kristi K.
Before: Kristi felt perpetually fatigued, yet couldn’t sleep at night. She was dieting and exercising with no change in her weight. She felt distant from her partner and intimacy was the last thing on her mind. She was also losing motivation in her creativity for her job that she use to love.
After Inner Balance: “I really feel like this has been a gift to my health. I was on other HRT and it didn’t make me feel this way. I really feel like I have found the secret.”
Why Inner Balance works:
Inner Balance is a whole-body hormone enrichment that restores all 3 hormones in the right ratio. Using only one effective product, means less side effects and a lot less work, time and money. When you restore appropriately, you get your life back – you don’t just treat symptoms. Lean more about how Inner Balance restores libido, sensitivity and satisfaction</a >.
Enhanced sleep, skin, hair & libido
“I am sleeping through the night, my mood is stable and my hair is growing” –Debbie D.
Before: Debbie struggled with insomnia, weight gain</a >, anxiety and hair loss. She tried everything. She was told repeatedly that she had estrogen dominance and was perimenopausal but the treatment was to lower estrogen and she needed to wait until her period stopped before starting estrogen.
After Inner Balance: “I am sleeping great and even though it wasn’t my primary concern, my skin and hair look amazing</a >. I spent years trying to lower my estrogen and never felt right. Once I started estrogen and progesterone, I immediately noticed the difference and wished I would have started earlier.
