And avoid caffeine such a horrible hormone disruptor - adding cruciferous veggies and beans helped my menopause a lot - I didn’t realize how badly coffee was throwing off my hormones and HRT isn’t needed if no caffeine and processed foods sugar and oils.

Does it make sense to consider hormone replacement therapy if I have already entered menopause (stopped menstruating about 3 years ago)? I continue to have hot flashes (10 years now). I also have psoriasis (since the age of 15), Sjogren's syndrome (onset a few years ago) and SIBO. I follow a dairy-free, grain-free, low starch, low FODMAP, low-lectin, almost vegan (salmon weekly hydrolyzed collagen daily), organic diet. I eat cruciferous vegetables 2 to 3 times a day. My main sources of protein are homemade organic soy milk kefir and yogurt, and walnuts. I am currently treating SIBO for the third time, despite maintaining this strict diet and taking a ton of nutritional supplements. I adore all of your videos! They're so well made. If you ever move to Montreal, Canada, I'll be your first patient 🙂

Am I too old and far-gone to benefit from bioidentical hormones?

@drrajsree
@drrajsree Год назад
Hormone pellets are not recommended since they can make your hormone levels really high, and can't be removed and then the hormone levels just gradually wane over a 3-6 month period. Hence, they don't mimic the natural body physiology. Thanks for watching.

Intermittent fasting is great in Menopause since you don't have to worry about it affecting hormones. You might enjoy my video on Autophagy and Fasting: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v5xBE1zvwUY.html

​@@drrajsreedoc, immediately after a horrible intestinal challenge that had me bed bound for 2 months, dr. Said it was highly probable to have been caused by very high stress levels. With that said I have had a LOT of gas from both ends. Burping throughout the night and sometimes day. Intestines seem to get flared up very easily. Does this have anything to do with menopause?

Enjoyed your video. I have been taking BI-Est cream with progesterone and testosterone as well as DHEA in pill format for 8 years. Many of the symptoms are lessened but I cannot control my weight. I am 40 lbs heavier than before I started the regime. Should the dosage be adjusted or should I discontinue using these products?

It's good to discuss with your doctor to see if there are other causes of weight gain and check your hormone levels. I typically don't find the BI-est to cause weigh gain if dosed appropriately.

I am 57 and post menopause I have never taken Hrt . At the beginning of my menopause I had a few hot flushes . The last year I have started to get more belly fat . I have started fasting and going to the gym. I am vegetarian and I am trying to cut down on sugars. I don’t eat pasta or bread very often if I eat bread is usually sourdough bread. Only drink water sometimes green tea or peppermint tea . I take MCT oil with aloe Vera juice and take a daily gut supplement . Is there anything else I can do to lose the belly fat? Thanks

I have been using HRT for the last year. 100mcg micro Progesterone and divigel 1mcg. First 6 months, I had no problems with spotting. After that, it started spotting or acting like a regular period. Immediately I called my doctor, and she said to continue the dosage. she checked the blood test but continued the same. When getting the spotting, what do I need to do? Do I need to stop the medication or continue? Am I taking a higher estrogen dose? I want to know your thoughts. Please help me!!

I’m 59 years old. I have not had a menstrual cycle for at least 10 years I found out I was in menopause after I stopped taking the provera shots for birth control. I don’t get hot flashes or brain fog , I have gained weight in the last 4-5 years and I do have increased muscle aches . I sleep ok and I don’t really have mood swings. I am also seeing signs of sagging skin and aging. Also my ob doctor switched me from regular birth control to provera in my mid forties because I have varicose veins in my legs which have been less painful since I stopped taking any kind of birth control. My Question is if I have some symptoms but not all of menopause what treatment would be best and does a ob doctor do all the testing or is there a special doctor that I need to see?

@drrajsree 10 месяцев назад
I use them rarely. For estradiol troches, some of it gets swallowed so it does get metabolized by the liver which is not ideal (oral estradiol should be avoided as it increases blood clotting factors). Progesterone troches are fine.

I started my first bio-identical hormones two days ago and I feel much better. Unfortunately, this brand (Xiromed) is made with peanut oil and contains titanium dioxide, therefore my peanut intolerance makes my nose run and sometimes stuffy. Who knows what the titanium will do. Maybe it's worth the price I will pay.

@drrajsree
@drrajsree 10 месяцев назад
I don't recommend pellet type hormone replacement. It causes very high levels of hormones and can't be taken out once inserted. The levels gradually decline over a 3 month period.

How long should a person stay on bioidentical hormones?
@drrajsree
@drrajsree 2 года назад
It's a personal decision. Some of my patients choose to stay on it long term due to the great benefits. That's why I encourage the "hormone holidays" (days off from the hormones as I described in this video) to help improve the safety for long term use. Of course they should be closely monitored by a qualified provider.
