Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy!

In this episode, he dives deep into the powerful potential, and the necessary precautions, of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in women. He shares why this once-taboo treatment is gaining traction, how it may reduce the risk of breast cancer by up to 50%, and why lab testing and clinical nuance are absolutely non-negotiable. Dr. McCarthy also addresses medical betrayal, the rise of influencer-driven misinformation, and what it means to receive care rooted in science, safety, and trust. If you've ever been confused, dismissed, or overwhelmed by hormone therapy conversations, this one’s for you.

🧬 Topics covered:

TRT’s anti-proliferative effects on breast tissue

The importance of lab work and metabolite monitoring DHT, estradiol, and aromatization explained

The ethical issues around "lab-free" prescribing

Why nuance matters more than ever in women’s hormone care
