You introduced me to Dr. Susan, for that I am forever grateful. I have been on pellets for two years now and it has been lifechanging. I tell all of my friends about them. Here in the northeast, it was very difficult to find a provider, but I did thanks to the knowledge I gained by listening to Dr. Susan. I feel amazing and my marriage has improved so much. Please continue to educate us regarding pellets and women's health over 50. I would love to hear more from women who are on pellets and if they have experienced any changes and how they manage their doses. Thanks again.

I am one of those 10% that never had hot flashes. I’m 64 and don’t have trouble sleeping either. I do take magnesium, vit D K2, B vitamins and eat clean, no soda, very little sugar, and exercise regularly. Weight/strength training, very little cardio. I’m also spend a lot of time outdoors and don’t have any negative people in my life😉. Great video ladies!

My lifestyle and supplement regimen is the same, and I'm almost 51. No symptoms, except for occasional very light periods and some hot flashes that are triggered by activity (and aren't really disruptive). Of course, that could change as I get closer to menopause, but I'm hopeful. Sleeping well and lots of energy. No alcohol, little processed sugar or gluten. I honestly think a consistently healthy routine for years is your best bet for happy aging overall.

Wonderfully informative! Thank you Dominique and Dr. Susan! I am 47 and officially menopausal since it’s been one whole year since my last period. I have found that my moods have stabilized and I feel calm and happy. Only now do I look back and see with clarity that my mood swings over the last 5-ish years (and my tendency to overreact and cry easily) were indeed due to perimenopause. I can’t believe I didn’t recognize that in the midst of it. Anyway, my hot flashes have been relatively mild, thankfully. I gained ten pounds over the perimenopausal years, but over the last several months I have lost the weight by tightening up my eating habits and learning to really limit sugar and carbs (and late night snacking). This was not initially easy, as I was blessed all of my life to be able to eat whatever/whenever and still stay slender. One thing that has really concerned me, however, is that my cholesterol began to creep up about 18 months before I was officially menopausal. I am slender and do not eat terribly, so I wondered if the cholesterol changes are possibly related to the severe drop in estrogen?

Loved the podcast! As a 67 year old woman who had a complete hysterectomy in 2009, I found a doctor who gave me bioidentical hormones which helped my hot flashes, etc. She took me off those hormones 2 years later telling me that I'd be at risk for breast cancer, blood clots, heart disease, etc. She also said that sooner or later you'll go thru hot flashes....do you want them now or when you're much older? So I went off the hormone treatment. Now, at 67 I've been diagnosed with osteoporosis and feel like I've put myself at risk for heart disease and dementia. Makes me angry that I was misinformed by a medical doctor. I'm now on hormone pellets and have never felt better! It's been more than 10 years since my hormone treatment stopped, is it too late to help prevent bone loss, heart disease and dementia since starting back on hormones?

Im sure there’s a correlation I just wish my doctor would help me balance hormones and not always want me to go on SSRI s I believe there is a great need for many but I don’t do well on those meds. I want to start upstream and have a Dr tell me it’s ok with BRCA and past breast cancer that I can take PR and ER and even testosterone. Blessing to all

Depending on your state - you can order your own blood tests at a very discounted rate directly with certain laboratories or providers like Thorne Research amongst others. I would research this.

Consult your doctor and if not available to you - please research options within your state to self purchase these tests.

Watch out for that long list of side effects listed on the package insert. My 2 cents anyway.

I will be very specific with my question: does HRT affect those women with Estrogen-receptor cancer? Also, Susan mentioned the importance of timely mammograms to prevent breast cancer but there are a few of us who had the mammograms (I had one in April 2005- categorized as a young patient) but ended up with stage III breast cancer (diagnosed October 2005). I think that being diligent with your mammograms and self-assessments is not enough. If you can find a silver lining, I was pushed into automatic menopause due to chemo but did not even know I was “officially” in menopause: no symptoms or discomfort or changes in mental function whatsoever. My gynecologist had to order a blood test to determine that I was, in fact, in menopause. The reason I did not know about this transition is that I had been using an IUD prior to this odyssey so I had not had a visible period in years.
@drsusan Жыл бұрын
Congratulations on being a breast cancer survivor and absolutely with a stage three estrogen,receptor positive breast cancer we would be looking for other options and one of those certainly could be testosterone with an estrogen blocker. If you look at the Research from Dr. Rebecca Glaser online you will see that she is pioneered most of this research for her own breast cancer patients. So there is still help available even for breast cancer patients and lots of things we can do to help you to feel better, but I would definitely investigate testosterone.used with an estrogen blocker and you don't have to worry about the common complaint that oncologist have, which is that some testosterone does aromatize into estradiol, but that can be prevented and Rebecca Glaser's patients had more than 85% reduction in their symptoms so that would be a great resource to investigate! And for vaginal dryness, laser is a fantastic option for breast cancer patients

Even with the current dip in crypto, I'm very grateful for the level-headed financial advice I got recently. I started stock and crypto investment with $5,345 and since following an FA for few weeks now, I've gotten $19,539 in my portfolio Thanks so much Mr Treyvon Rex

Amazing, I think an investment is easier with proper guidance, especially from a financial advisor...it helps reduce the chances of running into losses. All thanks to this same Mr. Treyvon Rex who made it possible and I was able to pay off my mortgage.

He is really great at what he does with amazing skills, he changed my 0.1BTC to 2.1BTC within two weeks of trading, and I am now fully confident that he is reliable.

My first investment in Mr. Treyvon Rex gave me the confidence that led me to invest without fear of loss. I have already taken 3 of my friends to their guide and they are fine.
