Thank you for watching and keeping up with new research. I have several issues and have been to more doctors than you can shake a stick at. I've found with so many doctors they get to a point where they think there's nothing left for them to learn and this leads them to not listening to their patience and blowing them off rather than admit maybe they don't know it all or that they haven't kept up with any newer medicine

THANK YOU! I'm in tears watching as a 55 year old post menopausal woman who was always in tremendous shape and just felt healthy. I didn't have a doctor the past 10 years and went through menopause about 7 years ago. I feel like my body is now breaking down in every way and gaining the most stubborn weight with zero energy to work out like I used to. My spine is grinding bone, I have tremendous brain fog, extreme exhaustion and after sudden repeat UTI's a doctor at the walk-in suggested a wonderful female urologist who put me on Premarin and probiotics. The relief was IMMEDIATE. This podcast is life changing news and hoping it's not too late to regain my health, power and zest for life. Long live Gen X!

Very true. I was doing weight training & core & balance work doing great. Then covid & menapause happened at same time. Covid almost killed me & my husband & recovery was slow. I was a military wife- handled every thing by myself, fixed stuff, cooked cleaned worked raised kids, church stuff etc. Now I am over whelmed almost all the time. Cant seem to accomplish much. I have always been able to juggle alot, build stuff, organize stuff. Im 59- moved last fall. Dont have energy to unpack. Did not make a great decision on the property we bought... I am an insomniac, depressed, unable to handle much, ADHD, gained 15 lbs, developed pain in hips & shoulder, and general malaise. I think alot about dying instead of doing something productive. God please help me get my tax stuff ready for cpa. Cant find a doctor to help me except to give me vaginal crm which helps with that part. I have called alot of drs.

The thing nobody talks about are TEETH! I’ve always prided myself of my nice smile. Once I entered menopause my teeth started to move and I now have a gap between my front teeth. I also needed 4 filling in my last visit something I didn’t need since a teenager. The orthodontist explained that this can happen with the hormone changes in menopause and the lost of bone density in the jaw. I never thought that I’d be needing teeth straightening at 55.

If you are going to take Vitamin D, please take Vitamin K2 MK-4, (not MK-7) in tandem. K2 MK-4 is a hormone (signalling molecule) that facilitates calcium uptake into the bones. Big pharma are pushing vitamin D supplements with MK-7 because it has a longer half-life in the body’s plasma, (i.e. it is not metabolised as quickly by the body), but actually you want the body to absorb MK faster so that it works faster and more efficiently. That’s where MK-4 is far superior because it’s a shorter chain molecule. The bulk price for MK4 and MK7 is the same, but because MK7 has side effects, the dosage sold is lower than in that of MK4 which means that Pharmaceutical companies can sell MK7 at a greater profit. Hence why they push MK7 over MK4. MK4 is essential for the body and we would die without it. Another lesser known attribute of MK4, is that it has been known to help kill cancer and prevent its growth in over 15 different cancer cell types, e.g. breast, leukemia, liver and lung. There are no clinical trials for this and you can be sure that this is because pharmaceutical companies cannot make any money out of it. I am not altogether against pharmaceutical companies, (we wouldn’t have HRT without them), I am just saying that they tend to pick and choose what would make them the most profit accordingly as it’s good business sense. Just choose your supplements wisely and with good research. Hope that helps.

This was mind blowing!!! I'm 49 and just went through one of those million dollar cardio work ups for palpitations. Increased joint pain, shoulder joint pain, brain fog, loss of concentration, monkey brain, and on & on. They said exactly what you said, nothing. I have told my MD, spouse, OB/GYN that I don't feel like I am in my body and something is off but I can't explain it. Nobody can help me. I finally feel like someone is listening.
@Hollowmoon007
@Hollowmoon007 6 часов назад
I went through what you wrote, also, at 46. The palpitations seem somewhat better now that I take magnesium daily, progesterone and have a low T pellet. But the progesterone does bloat me. Alloy online offered me spray estradiol which can be used apparently as needed (why didn’t anyone else tell me that??) during perimenopause, and that will be my next move. Perimenopause feels very intense and I feel “normal” about one week a month. Have you looked in Alloy or Midi? Best wishes.

Good show. 20 years ago I found a father/son doctor team in Florida who owned an alternative medicine clinic. They were life changing for me. Way ahead of their time. They did comprehensive blood work, gave me bioidentical hormones in cream form and a low dose of natural thyroid (not synthetic). Gave me my life back at 55. They also recommended low carb, high protein, natural saturated fat in the diet. It was a remarkable change for me. I'm now 75 and off hormones and thyroid med. Very healthy. I'm also 90% carnivore.

Mel, the problem is not knowing about PERIMENOPAUSE, that phase lasts 10 to 15 years, and starts around age 35, sometimes even earlier. It is not possible for us to maintain this natural hormone decline with our diets. It's not fair to lump perimenopause and menopause together. Perimenopause is one of the most delicate times in a woman's life. On my channel, I interview women from around the world, and we are all clueless about this period of time. During the middle and end of perimenopause, women hold the highest suicide risks, we are losing women to a hormone decline, not to an illness. As much as I am doing in my power to create awareness, one woman cannot do this alone; it takes us all working together. As a society, we should guide the next generation.

Recently saw a menopause trained doc who told me most of these symptoms weren’t from menopause. Calling bs.

It's so much more than black-and-white I'm somewhere between 35 and 55 and get my hormones test, tested by hormone specialist and they say I'm not menopausal, but I have other situations I guess what I mean to say is if you got your hormones tested every day at the same time for 30 days they could be radically different and for some reason they don't do that they do sleep studies but they won't test your hormones even every day for two weeks I'm looking for a naturopath and/or Doctor Who is willing to try this with me by nature, the endocrine system is not a linear thing, there are cycles there are seasons. so instead of a straight line, it's a big squiggly line and we just have to find a way to embrace this nurture this and maybe educate other people we're on the right path and I sure do hope with these two women and yourself included society changes faster because the 90s may as well have been the 50s let me tell you!

Hit full-on menopause at 45, but no one thought it was possible because they said I was too young and on Mirena. Doctors misdiagnosed me for 2 years with rheumatoid arthritis, depression, osteopenia, possible breast cancer, high cholesterol, and tendonitis in my shoulders. I was treated like a hysterical female instead of a woman who knew something was deeply wrong physically. I felt like a stranger in my own body. 😢🤯 It took multiple ObGyns and me advocating for myself for anyone to listen. Now, I have a low dose HRT, am on an anti-inflammatory diet and power lift 3x weekly and I'm BACK! ❤️❤️ I feel like I'm myself again. 💯💪 Ladies, you have to educate yourself and tell your friends to advocate for themselves because too many doctors just are not boned up on how to recognize or treat menopause. It's amazing that half the population will go through this and yet our medical professionals know so little about it. 😢😅 Please share this podcast with all the women you think can benefit from this.

I am so sad over the lost for nothing years and still not quite sure how to get out of this hot mess. I have a little window of time to pull this together, before having to return to work. I had to retrain for a sit down job, to how bad the back , diabetes, edema, etc. blah blah blah has gotten. And yes, my faith has what has kept me going, provided relief and led me thus far on my own with God. The medical system in this Country is shockingly bad.

@sloene72

They just don't know. My myotherapist mentioned deterioration and I wanted to slap her. My chiropractor doesn't use the word, only focuses on fixing me and telling me off. Who knows more about woman? The one who talks realistically as a woman or the man who blames me ? Choose your alternative therapists and doctos carefully. Some understand woman and some have no idea. Also, the symptoms do disappear. They really do. So hang in there. Treat it, and focus on other things in your life at same time and you will be amazed at how things heal themselves. Don't focus on being broken, focus on healing and getting so much better. Yes the frozen shoulder happens to both men and women so you wouldn't pick it. Chinese medicine brings relief so does Myotherapy over time, but medical doctors always want to operate. What your body needs it will find and so give it time its OK they don't know what they doing with the body anymore than we do. Be your own doctor and keep researching alternative help. Likely connected to menopause as are all of our crazy symptoms. I heard they clear up. Pray for you they will

Me too! My shoulder has been frozen for 10 years now. I had shoulder surgery, but it didn’t work. At around the same time, I mentioned all the menopause woes to my gyn and she just said, “Well, get used to it - you’re at that age.” Now, I’m 63 and probably can’t get anything back to working condition! I did finally beg my Dr to give me estrogen, but again, too little too late. My poor husband is outta luck. 😢

After a hysterectomy, my shoulder froze. I had a failed “closed manipulation” and subsequent shoulder surgery. In hindsight, both surgeries were unnecessary- I needed HRT!!!!! Years later, I tired oral estrogen (to no avail) but finally responded to transdermal distribution of estrogen aka “the patch.” I’m relieved our daughters will be spared the menopause nightmare caused by the debunked Women’s Heath Initiative (WHI) study. Grateful for Dr. Haver & Mel for showcasing her life changing body of work.

Partial hysterectomy for me in 2008 at 37. Can't lose weight no matter how much I exercise or eat/don't eat. As someone else mentioned in comments my teeth have rapidly gone down hill by cracking at corners & front top 2 shifted position into a slight gap. Lucky to sleep 3 hrs without waking up for hr or more. It's like I take mini naps around the clock. At times I feel like I have narcolepsy. I can even fall asleep at my desk while working esp if I've eaten anything. I can go all day without eating with no issues until my brain doesn't wanna work anymore. If I force myself to eat 3x day the body wants to sleep to digest the food which leads to many occasional daytime naps. That sleep is awesome tho as it's VERY DEEP sleep! I may subconsciously hear ppl trying to get me to wake up or sit back or put something down but can't respond at all. I can even nap on 300-400mg of caffeine! If I don't eat it don't happen at all. Anyone else experience this? I'm 53 now & not diabetic. I'm definitely overweight but been this weight 2 decades & can't lose even walking 100 miles month & exercising 5x wk for last 2 yrs.😢

Despite all the push back from GPs and even the endocrinologist, I insisted on trying HRT.

I immediately started having lighter periods and perimenopause symptoms that have progressed over the last year. But it all started with that COVID booster shot. The lack of research or care about how medicine affects women is why I don’t trust vaccines.

I don’t believe that about it being hard to get pregnant after 30. GUESS WHAT, my twin sister and I got pregnant FOR THE FIRST TIME, AT 40 YEARS OLD. The one and only time we weren’t preventing, WE BOTH CONCEIVED. So, with that said…..what are the odds. I’m 45 years old now and I’m on HRT. For low testosterone and low progesterone, normal estrogen. Bioidentical hormones and feeling better every day. I definitely felt emotionally regulated, DEFINITELY SLEPT BETTER, toner skin and muscles, hair isn’t falling out, more energy, definitely more sexual desire, less joint pain. I remember feeling like I’m on top of the world with my age having a 4 year old. I will say it takes longer for the testosterone levels to increase, my levels were below the lowest on the scale. I’m on 18 mg troche, 250 mg progesterone. I could not get rid of the weight I had and I was always 130lb. So when I was continuously gaining weight even after having my child, 173 lbs and I was humiliated. I knew 10000% something wasn’t working right. Sure enough both hormones were on the lowest of the low. Lower than the range on the lab scale. I was so excited when I found out and started HRT. The only thing that stinks a bit is the out of pocket expenses. But worth it.

Thank you for this! My generation was intentionally not prescribed HRT due to that faulty study. I asked for them when my body and mind began spinning out of control. My DR told me to eat better and exercise more. I already ate well and exercised regularly. I felt ignored and dismissed. I white knuckled it for 8 years until I moved and a new DR helped. I love that we can say “menopause” out loud now. Thank you for bringing this into our conversation.

100%. I’m 60 and still suffering hot flashes and I’ve aged a thousand years in a decade 😅 I felt insane for several years with all of the symptoms I’ve experienced. From frozen shoulder to jaw bone loss that nearly caved in my cheek and required a dental implant. I’m finally on estradiol to try to treat the atrophy. Many of my friends still suffer terribly. Huberman had a recent podcast and somebody called the effect of that study on women’s health “criminal”. It’s unbelievable

Yes, my mother is 69 this year, went through surgical menopause at 38 with 1 year of hrt only, and now she has high cholesterol and osteoporosis. I'm 100% convinced that with long-term hrt, she could be in much better health now. It's sad.

So sorry your mom went through that! I was also diagnosed with “stroke-level cholesterol” about 2 years in and the doctor prescribed statins. I went 100% vegan and stepped up my cross training and brought my numbers down. I’m back to a more balanced diet (for me) and exercise but I am still annoyed at the lack of compassion and knowledge about women’s health. Luckily our daughters will get better treatment.

I think it's fantastic. I shared this Pod to my friends on Facebook. I'm not going to beat myself up with who I am now. I'm just going to try to love the new me and keep me as healthy as possible.

This episode is pure gold! Your other episodes on menopause, nutrition, and our aging female bodies have been the bomb, but Dr. Haver leveled up with so much more information and "light bulb" moments. My estrogen hit zero in 2020 and like you, I've been stating my stage of menopause all wrong! Had no idea I'm post-menopausal - thought that meant when it's finally over. After the knowledge dropped in this episode, I now realize it's not really ever going to be over but there's hope! All I could think about was my grandmother, and her mother, and on and on....they were labeled "hysterical". This was just so good...shared with friends, co-workers, and my two adult daughters! Thank you thank you!!

3 years post menopause here and I feel like I got hit by a train. I started perimenopause when I was 47 in addition to all the other symptoms I had Frozen shoulder too. I"m 54 now and I've lost All my energy to work, to self-care, to envision and plan the day, week, year, and future. I fell like sh---. The menopause stage messed up my heart making me unqualified for hormone replacement therapy in postmenopause. Postmenopause f--ked my lymphatic system and caused my leg and head to be backed up with lymph fluid and swell up like. My brain is putty. On top of all that, MDs treat me like a second class citizen. I would describe my experience: perimenopause as being hit by a bicycle, menopause as being hit by a truck, and postmenopause as being hit by a train then shoved off a cliff. I don't recognize myself at all.

I have to share that my ovaries were removed for endometriosis at age 42. I then fell off of a cliff and the age clock began immediately devastating my entire life. Now 60 I had everything you are describing. Had to convince my OBGYN to prescribe not only estrogen in my 50’s and now testosterone to just be able to save my muscles and joints. I was treated initially like I had a mental illness which was tragic in itself and a huge waste of my life and tremendous unnecessary suffering I went through.

I started having an arrhythmia (my heart was skipping a beat) when I was in my mid forties (perimenopause) and it scared the hell out of me. I had know idea it was related to a decrease of estrogen production. This led to severe anxiety because I thought I had a heart problem!! I ended up getting an echo & wore a 24 hr heart monitor, both were benign. GYNs need to inform their patients!!!

I'm 54 and have been done with menopause for a year. I refused to take hormones and somehow got through it without killing my husband😂. Everything changed for me when I stopped eating meat of any kind(no chicken, fish, etc) and I cut out most dairy. My cycles were not as heavy or as frequent and the pain wasn't as bad. None of the symptoms I had were even half as bad as they had been. I firmly believe changing my diet made all the difference.
@MsLinda165
@MsLinda165 2 месяца назад
Gosh, I had the opposite experience. I cut out most veggies, most grains, and focused on meat and plain yogurt for dairy; cut out most nuts, seeds, cut out tomatoes, bread. Feel soooo much better. Wow. Can't even describe. Also cut out alcohol. But my diet is mostly meat, beef (no pork) few fish, chicken and good fats like avocado, plain greek yogurt, goat cheese and I don't get migraines, bloating, flu, you name it. I also never got Covid. Plus I exercise by walking 5 k a day. And I floss daily, for mental health. I will have sourdough bread occasionally. Intermittent fasting is key, and also getting 8 hours of sleep a night. I"m 65 and I've been doing this since 38. I look and feel amazing. Had early and sudden menopause due to ovarian cancer in my late 30's. My doctor didn't agree with any of this, but she's on long term disability now, and I'm cruising around like a 19 year old. People need to eliminate what is not working, and treat their body like the temple it is.

Amazing show, I have been waiting for this match up! Dr. Haver is HANDS DOWN the reason I challenged my GP's anti-HRT stance. My doc was dismissive of my symptoms, particularly my brain fog, joint pain, and generalized pain, and adamantly refused HRT, claiming it caused "ranging cancer" in a very belittling manner. He insinuated that the "little bit of comfort" HRT might offer wasn't worth the risk. I sought help from a telehealth menopause clinic and began HRT in June 2023. The results have been life-changing! I'm back on top of my game at work, off all SSRIs, and able to exercise again. This 55 year-old finally realized the fine art of advocating for oneself!

My body odor has changed in smell. For the past year in cycle has been all over the place. I’ve had migraines since I was 12, right now I’m getting them all the time! Multiple times a week.

I'm 53 and my periods are still occurring 28-29 days like clockwork with no HRT. I started having perimenopausal symptoms at age 43 so I went to my OBGYN (female and around my age at the time). She bluntly told me that my symptoms weren't related to my hormones and suggested I see a psychiatrist! In tears, I told her I will never make another appointment with her and I basically fired her. I found a Nurse Practitioner who specializes in older women's health and she was very understanding and confirmed that my symptoms were very much related to my hormone depletion. Everything I read online talks about hot flashes and night sweats and vaginal dryness remedies. I have none of these! However, my anxiety is thru the roof and I get so depressed in the days leading up to my period. The insomnia is very disruptive to my life as well.

Find a urologist who specializes in Vaginal rejuvenation. They’re especially prevalent in affluent areas where face lifts and such are common like Orange County, California.

I started HRT at 44 and I'm 46 now. If I could go back I would have looked into it more closely in my late 30s when I started to feel like I was not in my own body. After starting on HRT my once high blood pressure normalized ( I check it every day) , no more migraines, no more food cravings , no more hot flashes, no dry vagina or weak bladder....... im more organized, focused on time .....and the depression with that gloom outlook on life is something I can fight against with success. I refuse to wither away and be quiet in a corner somewhere for decades. I don't think so.

But I have joint pain and am holding weight. I will follow up with my gynecologist. I definitely don't work out as hard as I did in my 30s. but in part because my joints hurt and I don't have the same energy. I have been blaming myself for holding on to 10 lbs and belly fat.
