Love this! Thank you for speaking truth to fear. I wish you and your menopause trained colleagues could get in front of the oncology world with this information.
Brilliant again. Women chase me down and ask how I look so great. I’m 60 look 30s feel better than my 20s. I tell them I decided to bypass all menopause symptoms with estrogen. Saved my looks and life and will save me from heart disease, osteoporosis, and dementia. And they say ohhhhhhh well I can’t take it because my doctor says blah blah blah I am at a risk for cancer. I roll my eyes. I am so tired hearing this junk. Your content has saved my life for the last five years thank you and thanks for bringing this one up! This is a new topic that nobody seems to have brought up yet. Now that you’ve said something, they’ll wait a bit and then jump on the bandwagon because it’s truth. Again, you are the trailblazer, smart beauty! 🙏🏻♥️👸🏻👊🏻
@andreacrouch36 enjoyed reading your comment! since you replied on his particular video about post-breast cancer menopause treatments, I am assuming you are a BC survivor like myself? if so, would love to hear more about how you were successful in getting BHRT (and whether you were ER and/or PR +).
Andrea, how did you successfully get on estrogen? What provider prescribed it? Did you go to a Naturalpath and pay out of pocket? And how did they monitor your levels? Was it through blood serum, saliva or urine? I am a phlebotomist and research lab work. Thank you
@@susanallen8214 I listened to all of Dr. Taylar’s menopause TH-cam videos and then took that information to my doctor. Told her exactly what I wanted and how I felt about the WHI study. She was thrilled found it refreshing started me on a lower dose and I’ve worked my way up to 2 mg transdermal twice weekly plus progesterone. I did have my uterus removed but still I’m on my progesterone because I sleep like a bear and it’s great for my skin. All we have to do is get educated and take it to a smart doctor.
I just finished active treatment for stage 3 breast cancer in January and you’re spot on. I thought I would be moving on with my life after chemo, a double mastectomy and radiation BUT nope, I’m constantly at the oncologist and other various doctors still and it really is like a full time job. Thank you so much for this video. SO much.
Thank you for this. You are soo right. After being diagnosed and having been treated for breast cancer. There are so many "do not's" it's like being in a prison of menapause systems. And the oncology profession think that's ok.
This was so powerful - thank you, Dr Taylor. It seems like there needs to be a massive awareness campaign about this issue, addressing both the medical community as well as the general public/women.
I think I have a fear of Menopause Management After Breast Cancer because I don't know what cause it in first place.. Very interesting topic, thank you!
Most of the things that increase risk for breast cancer are the diet and lifestyle things ... over which you have control or your reproductive history ... over which you no longer have control.
Oh, this was a GREAT video! Love the comment about a birthday as today is my birthday. ☺ I have learned how to “talk/discuss” with my doc if I am ever diagnosed with breast cancer. We WILL have a meeting of the minds! Next week is going to be epic!…and, yes, I could hear the comments to next weeks video, too. An open mind will help to manage our menopause our way. 💕💕
You made me cry because that’s exactly how I feel !!! I had bc and had chemotherapy and radiation and life after all those treatments and medications have been a life sentence ! Have been talking to oncologist for years and he does nothing to help!
You should seriously consider scheduling a consultation with me. This is precisely the kind of thing for which I do one-on-one consultations. You definitely need one. I cannot tailor things specifically to you in a comment box. It requires much more information than you can give me here, and you deserve much more information than I can give you here. No two women are alike, and addressing your situation requires tailoring all the facts specifically to YOU. I do them all via online video conferencing. You can schedule at MenopauseTaylor.ME. I look forward to meeting you and helping you.
Taking no prisoners today, Barbie (pun intended) and am thankful for that. No doctor will say you are cured, so you live in fear of recurrence even if you’ve had stage 1A. How many years does a woman need to wait to have peace of mind? Can’t wait for the next video…
Praying for you Dr Taylor. Remember the Lord, our Creator Redeemer and Healer. He gives us our gifts, but He is the sovereign One, the giver and preserver of life. We need to acknowledge and thank Him. Jesus saves.

I would love to have a consultation with you one of these days. It’s not currently an option as I am having a hard time finding a job. I am so concerned I waited too long as it’s almost 10 years since menopause. 😢
Greetings Dr Barbie! Present and ready for class! I have to wonder if it's all because there is a lack, or shall i say, disregard, of research on women's health and treating us. This means they refuse to let women who had breast cancer have HRT because there are no studies that say it is safe. The same can be said after a diagnosis of uterine/endometrial cancer before menopause. My stage was 1a and i was allowed to use estradiol. However, i know two women who had Stage 3 and they were not allowed, despite having a successful chemo/radiation treatment fir it and cleared after five years, aka cancer free. Women's health studies are 100 years behind the times. They need to act on it and get more funding to tell women WHY they can't use it post-breast cancer
Oh my God..this makes me so angry! Women can’t use HRT after a hormone positive breast cancer because breast cancer cells can still be in the body microscopically. Even with a stage 1 cancer with no lymph node involvement, cancer cells could have traveled through the bloodstream. Breast cancer is known to spread..metastasize. Women used to die routinely, but not anymore! We don’t want to use hormone products because we know they FUEL these cancer cells to grow again. And sorry, both ductal (80% of breast cancers) and lobular (10% of breast cancers) are hormone positive!!! And endocrine therapy is not forever! Whether Tamoxifen or an Aromatase Inhibitor they are given for 5 years. Maybe 7, or 10 years tops for the worst cases. It’s not a state of terror. It’s about doing all you can to not have a recurrence. You can’t say “cured” when those microscopic cancer cells can still be in the body just waiting to grow again. Why would you take a chance using hormone replacement knowing that estrogen acts as fuel for breast cancer? Scientific fact..not fear. Women are surviving breast cancer because of all we know and the therapies we have today including endocrine therapy! I promise you the brutal treatments of chemo, radiation, and surgery are worse than menopause symptoms
We know why. Because even after a Stage 1 diagnosis, breast cancer cells can still be in the body microscopically. They could have broken from the tumor and traveled through the lymph system or bloodstream. They can “wake up” well after 5 years. Some breast cancer like lobular, is known for having late recurrence..even 20 years later. Estrogen is known to FEUL their growth. Without estrogen, the estrogen receptors all over the breast cancer cells have nothing stimulating them to grow. Thanks to endocrine therapy and the fact that science now understands how estrogen fuels breast cancer cells, women are surviving breast cancer! It’s another tool in the tool box to keep cancer cells at bay. It’s very upsetting that this so called doctor doesn’t seem to understand the make up of breast cancer cells and is suggesting to women that hormone replacement therapy is safe for women who have had hormone positive breast cancer.
I will give you an entire unit on Ovarian Cancer. It consists of videos 413 (airing on June 2 2024) - 451 (airing on March 25 2023). There are 39 videos in all. Watch them in order, and you'll know everything.

There is no other medical entity that is enshrouded with fear like breast cancer. And fear runs the whole breast cancer system.

What if youve been in menopause for 10 yrs and have had breast cancer 22 yrs ago, can you still benefit withBHRT

Go to your doctor get on estrogen patches before that 10 years or you are sunk
Stay on the lookout for discounts or give-aways. You'll find them on social media and in my newsletters.

It's all about 2 things:
Fear
Money
Fear sells. It makes gazillions.

Would you be so kind to speak about restless leg syndrome associated with menopause?
So sorry you have that.
My mother has it, I’ve had it all my life and my youngest son has it. Sadly, no cure…seems inherited.
I will get to that ... but not for a very long time. I can address it with you in a consultation at any time.
@@MenopauseTaylor oh, good! I’ll be there for class! 💕
