    Thanks for this information, but I want to know how menopause affects on me because my 4 pregnancies are delivered by cesarean. Yes, 4 because on my third I have placenta abrupt and I have narrow pelvis, and excuse me for my English, this is not my first language. I do not have any urine leak and I think it's because my cesareans I'm 56.

    • @MenopauseTaylor

      Yes! You are correct. You are LESS likely to leak urine if you have a Cesarean.
      But pregnancy itself causes a lot of trauma to your urinary tract, too.

    • @MenopauseTaylor
      @MenopauseTaylor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's all about the number of months you spent being pregnant. So, for most women who have had one or two miscarriages or abortions, those months don't add up to much over the course of your entire reproductive life. The critical factor is the number of cycles you've had. The more cycles, the higher your risk for breast and ovarian cancer.
      And, don't forget that, if you breastfeed after a pregnancy, you usually don't have a return of your periods. So, women who have a lot of pregnancies (with term deliveries) and then breastfeed for many months after each pregnancy ... have very few periods. It's this prolonged interruption in your cycles that matters in decreasing your risk for these diseases.
      I'll be teaching you all of this is great detail when we get to the unit on breast cancer.

My own digging helped me realize the danger of breast cancer possibly going undetected due to this density. I've recently switched to a whole food plant based diet (which I read might help), I don't smoke or drink, I exercise regularly and don't have a sedentary lifestyle; so I'm hopeful that I'm doing the best I can for myself and am curious if my next scan might show any changes in the density.

      If you lost a lot of weight, you also lost weight in your breasts, which consist of a lot of fat. That's why they sagged. This decrease in fat does not affect the fibrous tissue in your breasts, which is what makes them dense. It makes perfect sense.

I’m thinking of asking my doctor for an ultrasound if it’s so difficult to see any cancer. Is that what you recommend to your patients? Thanks for being so anal!!!

    • @MenopauseTaylor
      @MenopauseTaylor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's not the job of anyone other than the radiologist to "recommend" an ultrasound. It's all about how easy it is to read the mammogram. So, I think it's best to get the mammogram, and just know that if there is a need for "further evaluation," it's probably just because they can't read the mammogram, and not because something is suspicious.
      Do not assume that you can use ultrasound INSTEAD of mammogram. That is not the case. The ultrasound is only ancillary to the mammogram and should be done after the mammogram.
      You're the first person who has thanked me for being so anal. Well, others have thanked me many times for the benefits they receive because I'm so anal. Like, when I travel with friends and I have all sorts of esoteric stuff in my luggage about which they tease me ... until THEY need one of my esoteric things! But, no one else has ever just come out and said, Than you for being so anal!"

    • @MenopauseTaylor
      @MenopauseTaylor  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, twins put more stress on your bladder, for sure. But a twin pregnancy counts as only one pregnancy. So, your risks for breast and ovarian cancer are those of someone who has had only one pregnancy.
      As with everything, there are some advantages & some disadvantages t having had a twin pregnancy. Nothing about your bladder or risks for breast or ovarian cancer counts as an advantage. But, the fact that you didn't have to endure two separate pregnancies is an advantage in terms of convenience.

      And, don't forget that, if you breastfeed after a pregnancy, you usually don't have a return of your periods. So, women who have a lot of pregnancies (with term deliveries) and then breastfeed for many months after each pregnancy ... have very few periods. It's this prolonged interruption in your cycles that matters in decreasing your risk for these diseases.
      I'll be teaching you all of this is great detail when we get to the unit on breast cancer.

    well I guess I'm an anomaly... I have 5 children all full term and at age 57 dense breast. When my children were young I attempted to jump on the trampoline with them and that was a no go as my bladder couldn't take it. Now I jump freely with my grandchildren, no issue at all. Weird. Not taking any hormones, which may be a bad thing. Just goes to show we are all individuals due to our own unique DNA which is one statement I think you certainly emphasize.

    I'm 41 and never been pregnant. Just had my first mammogram. My breasts are extremely dense, an ultrasound is needed to see things that a mammogram can't pick up. I love your videos. You always weigh the pros and cons.

    • @MenopauseTaylor

      You get it! You are the prime example of a woman who may need ultrasound to "see" what is difficult to see on a mammogram.

    I’ve never been pregnant, and started menopause at age 47. That’s when I also started HRT with a Vivelle-Dot and progesterone. Now at 51 I’ve tried weaning myself off of it only to find my nights drenched with sweat. All the factors you’ve mentioned make me fearful about cancer risk. It’s so hard to know whether to go back on HRT.

    • @MenopauseTaylor
      @MenopauseTaylor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Please, please, schedule a consultation with me. Your comment is rife with misinformation and fear. And I can address those things and more. I want to help you so badly.
      I'm in the business of educating you about everything you need to know and do in order to get exactly what you want for managing your menopause your way. So, here's how a consultation works:
      1) You would schedule a one-on-one consultation at my website, MenopauseTaylor.ME, choosing a time that is convenient for you. I do consultations on Skype, FaceTime. Facebook Messenger, What’s App, and the phone.
      2) I would confirm that you are scheduled for the stated time, and invite you to send me as much information about yourself as you please. You can make it brimming with details and tell me about your reproductive life, any gynecologic problems you've had, your symptoms of peri-menopause, and your symptoms of post-menopause. You can include all your fears, concerns, and goals for your menopause management. You may also send me any labs, mammogram results, bone density results, etc. that you would like me to include in designing your protocol. For instance, if you want to adhere to a certain category of management options (herbs or diet & lifestyle, or whatever), you should tell me that. I would need all these things at least 1 week before your consultation with me.
      3) I'll get busy creating a document that gives you all the education you need to understand absolutely everything, points put the pros and cons of each option, and tailors it all to YOU using the information you have provided. The document will be loooooong. Most are over 30 pages.
      4) I will send you the document by email 48 hours before your consultation. You will benefit greatly by reading it in advance. Light bulbs will go off like crazy, and if you're like most women, you'll feel that you've already gotten your money's worth.
      5) During your consultation, we will review the document and address any issues you want to fine tune everything and determine your best options. I'll tell you exactly how to find the right kind of professional, how to have the conversation in order to get what you want, and the nuances of things like guidelines and insurance. I leave nothing unaddressed.
      6) You will go to a professional of your choosing in order to get the actual hormones or whatever you choose to use.
      7) After the first consultation, I'll hold your hand (forever if you want me to). In other words, you'll be able to schedule mini-consultations (15-minute or 30-minute, in addition to full consultations) whenever you need to. I'll keep records of your situation. Most women schedule mini-consultation whenever they go to the doctor and don't understand what he or she said, or why. I translate. I make sense of everything. Most schedule mini-consultation whenever they have a new test and they want me to explain the results. And all schedule mini-consultation whenever their situation changes and they need to re-weigh and balance their options.
      The time you spend with me will make everything about working with any other professional so easy. And they will love the fact that you have an actual education rather than a bunch of misconceptions that you got form the Internet. If your initial hormone regimen is not right, you'll want to consult with me before going to your doctor. I can prepare you for what to expect and what to request.
      So, that's my role. And nobody else on earth does this kind of thing but me. So, I hope you schedule a consultation and let me hold your hand (figuratively).
      I hope to meet you soon!

      If you want a more efficient delivery of this education, consider doing one of the following:
      (1) Get the 15 webinars & watch them all in order.
      (2) Get the 2 DVDs and watch them in order straight through.
      (3) Get my book and rad it cover-to-cover.
      (4) Schedule a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME.
      These videos are intentionally slow and playful. I am the only person on Planet Earth providing women with a menopause education that they can actually understand, regardless of their learning style. Many of the women who watch these videos speak English as a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th language. My goal is to meet everyone's needs. I hope I can find a way to meet yours.
