I hate when only the word progestins is used. It’s meaningless. Doesn’t tell you if it’s bio identical or the other stuff. Two different substances yet are often lumped together as one.

No one in medicine are bothering with hormone replacement therapy for Woman 😊 There is easygoing clinically prescribed hormones for trans generation 😊 to choose their medicated preferred option for gender . Hormone therapy. Women are not as profitable in the business world especially when older. Its all about profit 📈

I’m so confused! I have text book menopause symptoms, all of which are ruining my quality of life, especially the constant irritability, swearing and shouting all the time for the slightest thing! Doctor says I’m not suitable for HRT due to a long history of endometriosis and fibroids and a lump removed from my breast, (HPV found in the lump). I have put a complaint in as I have been dismissed without a blood test and told to take anti depressants instead. I desperately need HRT to get some normality back. Last period was 7 months ago and I’m 51. Is it really the end of the road for me? Can’t believe I’ve just been written off like this. I’m willing to take my chances with the risk factors. Side note - I was put on blood pressure meds around the time of my last period . Any opinion would be appreciated, I just don’t understand the nuances of these hormone videos, I have no idea where I fit! 😫☘️

I’ve just started hrt.. been on it for a week now and 61 yrs of age.. had bleeding this week besides bloating and all the symptoms of a period. The bleeding not heavy but feeling a little uncomfortable with the symptoms. Is it wise to take both ESTROGEL and Protesterone at the same time or can I take it at different times in the day. Also how long would I need to be bleeding to know whether I need to go back to my doctor. 😊

Started on Estradiol patches 3 weeks ago and while I'm still fatigued, I SUDDENLY got a sex-drive. WTH? that's not what I was wanting but...hey, it's kinda cool.

Progesterone has been the absolute worst for me. I’m 56 years old & was out on HRT both Estrogen & micro Progesterone. Gained water weight the 12 days out of the month when I was on Progesterone & severe GERD everyday because of the Estrogen. Finally stopped taking HRT after 2 years of misery & no more extreme bloating, no more GERD, no more weight gain.

My doc wouldn't prescribe it. I don't have heart risk. She was only going to give me HRT if I had hot flashes. I'm 8 years in to menopase (58). One of the docs told me that they don't prescribe it after 10 years, I said, I'm not 10 years, I'm 7 (this was a couple years ago). This same woman told me not to look in the mirror when I complained about weight and my inablity to suddenly not able to get rid of it. She sent me to another doctor in the practice. This is advertised as a mid-life center, which is laughable.

I'm grateful to you for this helpful video. I'm 63 now and I have been suffering from both low T for more than 35 years. Now I realize that I've been treating Thyroid quite wrongly: all this time I only took T4 medications and never did a T3 examen during my whole life. Though suffering with all low testosterone symptons for almost a decade, only recently I have my sexual hormones tested. I'm shocked that all this years going to medical doctors, cardiologists, urologists and endocrinologists, no one thought that my thyroid issues were related to my testosterone problems. In the beging of the year, my endocrinologist said I was developing insuline resistance and even though she only requested T4 and TSH examens. I'm really upset with medical doctors.

I felt like a million bucks on prempro, prescribed by my gyno. It's what convinced me that my body needed hormones. But the naturopath i found for other issues insisted i switch to compounded, sublingual hrt because prempro was dangerous for all women. The bioidentical hrt works well but nothing like that prempro. I guess something that made me feel like a million bucks was too good to be true.
@persnickety369 5 күн бұрын
I was able to find a provider for compounded hrt. But they act odd when I request some testosterone, too. Why is that? You'd think i was asking for a controlled substance. They finally gave me a little, tiny bit to be added to my compounded hrt. Not enough to notice much difference though. Women need some testosterone, too.

What if it's not a matter of the allopregnenalone "rejecting or accepting" GABA receptors? What if, according to a small number of hormone practitioners, it's a matter of the metabolite "irritating" GABA receptors because the dose is too small and higher doses of progesterone is necessary in order to "soak" the GABA receptors with allopregnenalone? Have you experienced any patients being able to overcome the negative, paradoxical symptoms of oral progesterone by taking larger doses of progesterone? There seems to be lot of success with this protocol in clinical practice but no studies to support it that I am aware of.
@SimpleHormones 5 күн бұрын
@jackiedalseme3138 That's a great point. YES! I HAVE heard from several hormone optimization providers who use HIGHER doses of progesterone in patients with progesterone intolerance. This is counter intuitive . . . you'd think those women need less of something that makes them feel bad (progesterone). But there are situations where MORE is better. It's a bit risky and maybe difficult to get women to agree to, but has been effective for some of them.

Bio identical replacement is a no brainer for younger women. I want to hear about older women, say late 60s, who start to take it. It’s so wrong that a whole generation missed their run due to misinformation of an old and faulty study (WHI) and lazy doctors who don’t understand female pain. See a HRT specialist not a GP.

@MissG909 That's what a lot of women tell me about their experience with progesterone. Progesterone is a game changer for sleep and mood for the vast majority (up to 90%) of women. It's good to keep in mind that women watching and commenting on this video are "self-selecting." Many more women commenting here are likely to have some level of progesterone intolerance, which is why they watched in the first place. Not as many women with positive experiences taking progesterone are going to watch this particular video.

Look if the doctor will not give them to you there are online menopause clinics where you have a consult with an online doctor (all legit) and they mail the prescription to you monthly. Or, as in my case i live in Costa Rica and i can buy them over the counter without a prescription. They do not have many options here...no patch...but i buy gel and micronized progesterone pills....it is working very well. Sleeping like a baby and my hair has stopped falling out! Good luck....take your life back. Also of course the experts that simply hormones is recommending. Take care

@SimpleHormones 5 күн бұрын
@nellie... Glad you liked it! Health insurance MAY cover hormone replacement therapy in some circumstances. It will usually cover commercially manufactured estradiol and progesterone, although many women find that there's just not enough flexibility with those and they do better on compounded HRT that has much more customizability.

@SimpleHormones 5 күн бұрын
@nellie... Looks like you've seen my "Breakthrough HRT Study" video that explains how many menopause symptoms DO NOT go away. Some of them, particularly vaginal and urinary symptoms, get MUCH WORSE over time. What also does not go away are the increased health risks that come from having inadequate hormone levels. Osteoporosis and heart disease are the biggest and first to show up.

@SimpleHormones 5 күн бұрын
@Karikk72 and @minao8942 Great questions! I would say first that HRT isn't "magic" at all. Getting your hormones optimized by replacing estradiol and progesterone is a process. It definitely takes some time to get your levels increased and stabilized. Expect some ups and downs for the first several WEEKS and don't plan to see amazing results within days. Women just starting on HRT can experience multiple side effects but the key is to hang in there and give the process and your body some time to work. Breast tenderness, vaginal bleeding, headaches, nausea, constipation, bloating, and other side effects are normal . . . if a bit uncomfortable. They're also extremely likely to go away or at least become a lot less noticeable once your provider gets your doses right and your body adjusts to those doses.

@@SimpleHormones but is it possible to be allergic to HRT? A few years ago I tried some DHEA suppositories and my lady part swelled up immensely! I could barely wipe after I peed it hurt so bad. This Sunday I attempted HRT again with a low dose estradiol patch 0.25, and medoxxyprogesterone (I literally just saw your video on that), 4 days in and again, my labia swelled up to the point where it was hurting to wipe. I also saw mucus substance after I peed. Not only that, but the first night taking the medroxyprogesterone, my hot flashes were so much more intense and yes I was pretty bloated. Dr I get that we have to go through side effects but this was unbearable. Years ago I dabbled in DHEA compounding pills but I do not recall if it had the same effect as I had some other health issues that needed my attention so I stopped. My gyno is completely oblivious to HRT and was a complete disappointment. Is it possible I’m allergic to HRT or do I need to try another method?? Please help I do not know who to turn to anymore.
