This is amazing content! I had one doctor want me to Get on Lipitor 3/2023. First time my cholesterol was not in a healthy range. I refused. Started down a reset journey and checking my hormones. My Vit D was extremely low. Adding that along with other things, my cholesterol is now in a healthy range.
BEST vid on DHEA for Post Menopause! Comprehensive, concise & understandable. SUBBED! Please, can i take it at 68 ALONE (WITHOUT added bioidentical E2 & progesterone)? (like i used to), or do i need the combination?
That’s a good question. You shouldn’t take it in addition to HRT bc the DHEA can increase your hormone levels too high. You should def take DHEA without hormone replacement, unless your doctor says otherwise to you -Former research biologist who’s been in endocrine hell, lol
great video!! How do you feel about providers using DHEA solely in a post menopausal woman to "try " to boost their Estradiol levels? I assume it can by boosting the test and then that spins off into (maybe) some estrogens.. but I would imagine it would not be to a therapeutic level that is needed to actually be heart/brain/bone protective? I imagine if this was such a great way to do Estradiol replacement that BHRT wouldnt even really need to be a thing?... except of course for the addition of the progesterone. TIA!!!!
I have been doing pellet therapy for 3 years. I am now considering no longer doing pellet therapy and replacing it with DHEA. Curious what your thoughts would be?
10yrs ago i had a pituitary tumor removed which resulted in me taking cortef and became menapause so for the next 10yrs til now i just was taken off cortef during the time i was on cortef became depressed and locked myself away with extreme fatigue now presently im on patch estrogen pill progestrone100 MG 1 pill at bedtime plus my calcium levels were very high and im hypothyroid can you kind of talk about best treatments. Thank you
What effects do beta blockers have on hormones in the adrenal glands? I take propranolol twice daily for migraine prevention, for many years, and am post menopausal. I'm concerned the beta blockers are hampering my HRT. What do you think? Thank you 😊xx
Good luck finding a regular doctor to give you a blood test. I just asked mine and he refused to do a DHEA blood draw. Maybe I didn't ask the right questions or maybe it's for a functional medicine doctor to do and you pay for it out of your own pocket.
Thank you! Not many care about the suffering of a menopausal woman

@@dshepherd107at the age of 68 even DHEA can not rise other hormone levels enough. So it could be supplemented separately or in combination.
Amazing! Thank you!

Apparently, he doesn't see patients. His website doesn't exist.
That is not true. His website is there and he sees patients in Illinois - Carol Stream .
