Thanks for the video! Do you have video about perimenopause? Lot of info regarding menopause but not enough for perimenopause. Thanks so much!

@DrKateLyzengaDean 7 ай бұрын

You're welcome! For most women, T starts to drop before menopause (during perimenopause), so much of the same info applies. Are you looking for more general perimenopausal information re: other hormones?

@@DrKateLyzengaDean yes. I believe I’m in the beginning stage of peri but I also having regular pms symptoms. Thanks again!

I have all the symptoms and I just know I'm low T.. I've suspected it for a few years.. this just confirms what I have suspected. The younger you are? .. nah.. I at 60 years old should be where I feel the best, I have lost all vitality, I swear I'm going to get this fixed!

Is there an alternative to the Dutch test? Is us way out of my budget.

I don't know of an alternative that gets you even close to the level of detail and actionable data as the DUTCH Complete - but it's an investment!

Could the low testosterone be caused by relationships where their partner puts them down, makes them feel small? I know that a social "victory" elevates testosteron in the victor and lowers it in the loser. Is that what can be going on in women? Besides the pill?

That's an interesting point! I don't know of any research studies about this specific situation, but it wouldn't surprise me if relationship stress could contribute to lower testosterone.

Is pg/ml the same as ng/ml?? My total testosterone was 1.45 nmol/L .... so that is 0.41 ng/mL ... or 41.82 ng/dL. I'm confused, it came up as normal on my blood test. The free androgen index was only 0.73, which is near the bottom of normal range, and SHBG elevated at 200 nmol/L. I have symptoms of low testosterone and just started testosterone cream. I didn't want to try and wait for the SHBG to normalize because I'm desperate to improve my symptoms. The SHBG was probably elevated due to a medication I was taking that I have since stopped. or, it could be due to the fact I'm taking levothyroxine and liothyronine.

@DrKateLyzengaDean Ай бұрын

Even if your total testosterone is in the optimal range, if it's bound up by SHBG it's not able to bind to testosterone receptors - hence, low T symptoms. Adding more T may or may not overcome this binding problem. Definitely worth digging deeper into the source of elevated SHBG.

Just to clarify - you're asking about how to lower SHBG after birth control use?

Hi doctor. My DHEA level is 128. My T levels are: 18 (total testosterone) and 1.6 (free T). Am I reading this correctly- my DHEA levels are normal but T levels are low? So DHEA is not to blame here?

@DrKateLyzengaDean 7 ай бұрын

Unfortunately, I can't confirm this conclusion for a few reasons: 1) without knowing A LOT more specifics about you and your health, it would be irresponsible for me to provide any specific lab analysis, especially here in the KZbin comments 😆 I'd hate to further muddy the waters or steer you in the wrong direction! 2) It makes a difference if you're measuring total DHEA vs. DHEA-S which is only one metabolite of DHEA. And these levels do vary by age, as does testosterone. And, again, I can't do that in the comments. That said, if you're looking for guidance for your situation - which it sounds like you are - you're welcome to apply for a 1:1 consultation with me (bit.ly/drkate1on1)!

Dr, what do you think about Maca for hormonal balance? Thanks

@DrKateLyzengaDean 7 ай бұрын

Like I mentioned in the video, "hormonal balance" is much to broad to be solved by a single nutrient or herb. Maca might be helpful under one set of circumstances, or actively push you the wrong direction under different circumstances. I'm advocating that we start discussing more specific issues (like low progesterone, estrogen dominance, low T, etc.). That's what I cover in my NEW Hormone Balance Deep Dive - check it out here: www.drkateld.com/hormone-balance-deep-dive-info-page

I'm not sure I'm posting under the right video because I've watched a few of yours, sorry for that. Why did you say not to wash plastic in the dish washer? I only have glass containers but they have plastic lids. Does plastic leach even if the temperature is not so high (at 45 celsius degrees)?

@DrKateLyzengaDean 2 ай бұрын

Yes - plastics with BPA shouldn't be exposed to heat.
