I don’t think I can possibly convey my thanks for what you are doing for this community of women. Because of you, I pushed for the third time to get a bone density test (I’m 57) and I knew how to interpret my scores!! Thank you for all you do. It is so necessary and so appreciated.
If you have a 10 year window of opportunity to take estrogen,; so by 61 one should be taking it if. You became menopausal at 51. Or would the window of opportunity close at the end of your 10 years,like 62?
I’m trying to recall who ordered my first dexa at age 52 - 7 years ago! It is a good baseline I didn’t appreciate. I cannot imagine waiting until 65! I’m recalling now the Arnp who was working with dr providing hrt. How I appreciate her now!!!
Just be sure that they accurately relayed the results. Most of the time, doctor's office do not because the guidelines basically tell them to say you're fine until you're broken. I have woman after woman in consultations who thinks her DEXA was normal when it was not.
Thank you Dr. Taylor! If it wasn’t for your videos I would have never thought about getting a bone density test ( in Nov. 2019). I did this on my own (paid for it myself) and the results show that ,in fact, I have osteoporosis. ( I’m 57 and had some of the risk factors you had described.) Because of these test results (and a follow-up DEXA scan to confirm the initial results), I have met with a doctor, had complete blood work done to rule out other possible causes, did extensive research on my own regarding treatment and have just begun ( with my doctor’s input) a course of treatment that will hopefully strengthen my bones. Without you I would have been unaware of the danger and the very real possibility of a debilitating fracture. I look forward to the rest of the videos in this series. I only wish a doctor had talked to me about this years ago when I was younger and I might have been able to do something preventative.
Nancy, This is the very reason I provide this education. Your kind words warm my heart because I know you will avoid a fracture that could cripple you for life. Thank you so much for writing this. If you ever need my personal assistance, don't hesitate to schedule a consultation at MenopauseTaylor.ME.
If only ALL gyn/menopause doctors were as educated as you. There would be SO many happy women celebrating their menopausal years! Thank you for telling it like it is...and I look forward to next week! Woo Hoo! XO ~Maria
@@MenopauseTaylor I think it IS! You are who you are...wonderful and truthful! Thank goodness. If I wanted someone to agree with me, I can look in the mirror.
It took about a week for me to figure out I'm experiencing perimenopause and about a month to watch all these videos in order and that was after researching for a good information source. I enjoy studying natural health management and prevention and many other truth topics as well I'm pleased to be caught up and prepared and I'm always looking for the best information source I'm so thankful to have found this one.
Woo! I finally caught up to y’all all! Lol. What an amazing work of essential information you are offering to every female born in every generation all around the world no matter her personal, particular and specific make up or circumstances. It’s not just starting from puberty, but even any pre-born females who are blessed to survive exiting the birth canal can benefit from this information. Your visual lectures and passionate enthusiasm have enabled me to SHOUT OUT LOUD that I am August 27, 1959 AND PROUD!! I am just sorry that these facts about anti-aging gracefully; especially the significance of estrogen loss, was never pushed so precisely, completely also in such a nurturing fashion, in all of the innumerable health literatures also lectures that I have been devouring since I was in my mid 30s. Thank you doctor Taylor for stepping up to the plate and hitting this VIP-Very Important Phenomenon far, far, farthest thus far out of the ball park. Because if you, I am as we text, literally on my-Almighty God willing-to living my best life ever. Thank you 🙏🏽
You're sweet message is making me teary. Thank you so much for appreciating what I'm trying to do for women everywhere. I will pursue this mission until the day I die. I just love knowing that it's making a positive difference in your life.
I appreciate you more than words can express Dr. Taylor. You are the epitome of the adage that states “ practice what you preach.” The virtual information highway is so easily filled with tale-tellers, imposters, perpetrators of various kinds of frauds; since we all know that none of us on either side of the screen may ever really meet in face to face. But finding ones such as you is like finding a very unique golden needle hidden deep inside a haystack of mostly average golden needles. You are definitely not the dime a dozen sort. FYI tho - You must be some kind of special since I actually despise (lol) GYNs-Never been a fan of vaginal picking and probing. The thought makes me cringe. But after carefully listening to your lectures, I am now ready to become diligent in my gynecological efforts to improve my quality of life for what may indeed be the best part of my life. You Rock!!!!
Very pretty in pink! I wonder why our doctors don't tell us these things! There is no way for women to understand these things without being told by a doctor what this is about. I don't know of any woman who would know these things and I even read books on menopause that didn't cover these things. I dont know though how you cannot know you are in menopause when your period stops. I was celebrating when my period stopped! You are the only person in the world telling women these things. The denial and fear of estrogen is very frustrating for me I cant imagine how frustrating it is for you. The surgeon who did my original surgery who is a world class surgeon told me to take Calcium and I would be fine. I took his word for it at first. When I realized I was not fine I started reading and read the best book on Osteoporosis and they are the ones that said you need estrogen. But trying to get it from a doctor was another up hill battle! Now I am fighting a thick uterus and large fibroid due to doctors not knowing in the beginning what I should take. I am trying to thin my uterus now and my GYN is understanding and compassionate. Most doctors would want to do surgery. We are trying to avoid that for now. Thank you for this education.
As you see additional videos on this each week, you will understand why this is such a problem. The whole system of osteoporosis is designed and governed by the profession that is what I call the "disease care industry." That means they focus on disease, not wellness. We doctors (myself included) are repairmen. We know how to fix you when you[re broken. So ... the system is designed to let you break. I find it criminal, but that's the way it is. I just think you deserve to know it.
There is no osteopetrosis doctor or specialist. When I was diagnosed I had no idea who to turn to for treatment and management. I'm so glad I have you Dr Barbie. I'm in the process of booking a consult with you 💚🙂🤗🙏
Hi Dr. Taylor. I had a private consultation with you a while back. Thank you again for all the personalized feedback. I finally found a local doctor (1 hour away) who is knowledgeable about menopause. Like you said it's worth the extra drive. She said I was the perfect candidate for HRT! I have a question for you. Is the generic estradiol patch of the same quality as Vivelle-Dot? Thank You for all your education.
Just wow. I wish my mother had this information! It was a fall and fracture that started her downfall. She rode her bike and went swimming everyday. She would have appreciated having full information. I’m wondering how I can get my daughter to pay attention to this.
Tell your daughter that you want "quality time" with her 45 minutes each week. In those 45 minutes, sit together (with your cellphones in another room). Start with video #1 and watch every single video IN ORDER with your daughter. You will be giving her the gift of a lifetime.
I wish there were subtitles in Spanish. My English is not perfect. Thanks for all the information, I'm 46 and I'm experiencing all those symptoms of premenopause. I don't understand everything, but your videos help me a lot.
I'm working on finding out how to make subtitles available in any language. I'm a one-woman shawm though. And some things take time. Just know that I am trying to meet your needs.
You can click on the settings icon at the bottom right of the screen and then on the drop down menu you can click on any of the languages available underneath the subtitle options. Sometimes you have to search for 'auto translate' to click on the language you want. The subtitles will appear at the bottom of the screen after selection.
Corinne, I do not make videos on individual products. Rather, I present the information by category. That enables you to see the differences between various options. If you want me to address anything particular as it applies to YOU, consider scheduling a consultation with me at MenopauseTaylor.ME. This is especially important for addressing your question about stopping HRT. That's an individual matter.
Thank you for your informative videos. You look especially lovely in these blush colors! I was wondering if there is a maximum dosage of Estrogen ( I don't mention Progesterone because I don't have a Uterus) and whether any dosage above the minimum your body needs to prevent diseases makes a difference in long-term benefits. Does your body just eliminates any excess estrogen every day when you take oral estrogen?
Only your own body knows what YOUR maximum dosage is. Most women have the problem of taking too little not too much. Many women need dosages much higher than the minimums just to relive their symptoms. The key is to listen to YOUR BODY, not to other people. I address this in detail in consultations if you want one. Remember, you're talking about a hormone that flooded your body like a waterfall for the last 35 years or so. HRT dosages are a drop in comparison.
Hi doctor Barbie Taylor. Finally my GYN prescribe me HRT yesterday. Because my blood test fsh came back very high. I’m only 42yrs still on my period. My gyn prescribe me Estradiol and Norethindrone AcetateTablets, USP 1MG/0.5MG combine in one pill. My question is.. is this the right amount MG of estradiol to protect me from osteoporosis heart attack and Alzheimer’s? Is it safe to start HRT if I’m still having my period and I have symptoms?
Madi, You definitely need to schedule a consultation for this. There is soooo much more to it that we need to address. And you cannot afford to settle for anything less that tailoring of al the information specifically to YOU. Pease schedule at MenopauseTaylor.ME if you're interested.
Hi doctor of my heart! Because of our one to one consultation I am on hrt for 7 months now and I feel I have my life back! I wonder if I have blood tests testing my estrogen level, what indication should I see after 7 months and how much should I have so I can say I am in a satisfying level? Thanks❤❤❤
Some of the blame has to be placed on medical professionals for not being taught the importance of estrogen and how devastating life can be if proper treatment isn't given at the time of menopause. It's as if the doctor should have a short chat with their patients and tell them what to expect and have the necessary resources to give the women to educate themselves. Family doctor's need to be on the front line and bring it up with their female patients. My family doctor just waves off that I'm in surgical menopause as if it's normal...it's not normal.... Funny how if men had a drastic loss of testosterone science would be on it to find meds to boost their hormone level to prevent devastating diseases..they have the little blue pill.... One more and I am caught up. Considering a consult, gotta wait until surgery file has been requested. Need to know really what happened...
My mom is 73 and have osteoporosis, her doctor just give her more and more calcium and i know thats not doing anything for her since she is not getting any better, even though she gets calcium for years and years. But since she never took estrogen and following your studios I know there's no good to take now, what's to do? What should be the course of treatment?
There are many options. PLEASE PLEASE, have your mom schedule a consultation with me ... BEFORE she fracture her hip or spine! I will teach her about all the things that really can make a difference.
Dr Taylor, can you please tell me your opinion on duovive? Im considering taking it because i have hypermobile joints and im worried about continuiing to take progersterone. I already have low bone mass. But the estrogen in duovive is oral. Is it safe? Please help..
I am hoping you will hit a lick on weighted workouts. I started aerobic dance with 1 lb dumbbells in the early 80's when it was a fad. I turned 20 in 1981 & read somewhere that if I added weights it would help prevent bone loss so I added 1 lb dumbbells. I am 59 now & last year at 58 I went from a b cup to a dd cup & pulled something in my back. So I have slowed down a little & now do a heavy weights upper body & a heavy weights lower body & a Zumba with 1 lb dumbbells each workout 2 times a week for a six day a week total workout system. Anyway weighted workouts as a preventative for Osteoporosis is a common thing & if you didn't get whether it is fact or fiction in this coming up segment would you maybe make one on common myths or facts, not things that have to be individualized. You have already hit the calcium one over & over again. But I am sure there are others. There was another question about arthritis here. Maybe include something about that generalized of course. I would really like to understand why estrogen cream soothes mine more than nsaids cappascain or menthol. A generalized discussion of estrogen loss osteoporosis & arthritis would be really helpful to a lot of us in making our own decisions. But you are beautiful inside & out! And I love you for doing this for us, you are right no one else does. Thanks a million times over!
Ann, Either you aren't watching my videos in order or you skipped one. Video 151 was entitled, "Osteoarthritis versus Osteoporosis." For personalizing everything to YOUR arthritis, consider a consultation There are many different kinds of arthritis. I keep things general in videos intentionally. I will be covering exercise for osteoporosis in videos 212, - 215, so we haven't gotten to the quite yet. Weighted workouts are fine ... to a point. But as you get older, you'll get hurt more easily (as you already indicated). Stay tuned, my dear.
Thank you for all the helpful information, I am 52 years of age and I am currently going through menopause (have not had a period on almost nine months. I asked my dr. for the bone density test and he refused, he says it is too soon for me and it would not be accurate. Can you please educate me on what I should do? Thank you so much.
Please schedule a consolation with me. This is way too important to address in a comment box. I assure you I will tell you so much in a consultant that it will blow your mind. I will tell you exactly how to address this issue. If you want one, schedule it at MenopauseTaylor.ME.
Hi Dr. Barbie! Will taking HRT after menopause merely stop the progression of bone loss, or can it reverse bone loss? That is, will taking estrogen build bone once again? Sorry to jump ahead...I can't take the suspense and really need to know ;)
Estrogen will merely stop your bone loss where it is, It does not replace lost bone. Always go back to basics: If estrogen loss causes bone loss, then estrogen replacement merely prevents bone loss. Do not expect more than that.
How do I submit my medical records and other info for an appointment? Is it by mail? I want to make an appointment but since I will only have 5 days to get it to you, I want to make sure I have everything ready to go. Thank you!
Dear @Dr. Barbie I have one sister that I didn't see for 14 years in Iraq . 2020 is the third year for her after removing her right breast for strings of reproduction that has been found . Her decision was to remove breast for preventing spread. A doctor took a biopsy for analysis and she was benign. Please, what your recommendation for her to do now.Aged 56
They CAN take progesterone, but they do not need to. But your statements about progesterone are misconceptions promoted by the alternative industry. Progesterone is the hormone that increases the risk of breast cancer, not estrogen. So, if you don't need it, you may want to skip it.
You have bone loss and Arthritis You being a doctor yourself Why didn’t you know what was happening to you? Was it bone loss that caused your arthritis
I hope you don't mind my commenting. I've watched many of her videos and they explain every aspect of this including her diagnosis as it pertains to menopause. They have helped me understand a lot and I greatly recommend watching them or making appointment if you don't have time. Also, I might have misunderstood but she doesn't have bone loss and speaks from a very detailed understanding of her own health. This is in her videos but osteoarthritis occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones wears down over time, so not the bones. Good luck to you :)
@@olinayoung6287 I don’t think the person has watched ALL of her videos or only heard part of it. I know she has osteoarthritis and not arthritis. I hope you (Music Lover) will watch all her videos so you can be as informed as we are. Take care.

I am 63 and had a dexa scan and told I had osteopenia. Is that bone loss also?
Thank you for all the helpful information, I am 52 years of age and I am currently going through menopause (have not had a period on almost nine months. I asked my dr. for the bone density test and he refused, he says it is too soon for me and it would not be accurate. Can you please educate me on what I should do? Thank you so much.
Please schedule a consolation with me. This is way too important to address in a comment box. I assure you I will tell you so much in a consultant that it will blow your mind. I will tell you exactly how to address this issue.
If you want one, schedule it at MenopauseTaylor.ME.
Hi Dr. Barbie! Will taking HRT after menopause merely stop the progression of bone loss, or can it reverse bone loss? That is, will taking estrogen build bone once again? Sorry to jump ahead...I can't take the suspense and really need to know ;)
Estrogen will merely stop your bone loss where it is, It does not replace lost bone.
Always go back to basics:
If estrogen loss causes bone loss, then estrogen replacement merely prevents bone loss. Do not expect more than that.
How do I submit my medical records and other info for an appointment? Is it by mail? I want to make an appointment but since I will only have 5 days to get it to you, I want to make sure I have everything ready to go. Thank you!
Vickie,
@@MenopauseTaylor I didn't see a response. All I see is Vickie. :)
Dear @Dr. Barbie I have one sister that I didn't see for 14 years in Iraq . 2020 is the third year for her after removing her right breast for
strings of reproduction that has been found . Her decision was to remove breast for preventing spread. A doctor took a biopsy for analysis and she was benign. Please, what your recommendation for her to do now.Aged 56
Nada,
@@MenopauseTaylor Did you reply on my comments. Appreciated if you did, Please get back to me whenever you can
I miss you
Why can’t women that don’t have a uterus take progesterone. Progesterone is good for the brain and breast and is also good to balance estrogen.
They CAN take progesterone, but they do not need to.
But your statements about progesterone are misconceptions promoted by the alternative industry.
Progesterone is the hormone that increases the risk of breast cancer, not estrogen. So, if you don't need it, you may want to skip it.
Oh please don’t tell me Nancy became a Doctor!
😀😀😀
You have bone loss and Arthritis
You being a doctor yourself
Why didn’t you know what was happening to you?
Was it bone loss that caused your arthritis
I hope you don't mind my commenting. I've watched many of her videos and they explain every aspect of this including her diagnosis as it pertains to menopause. They have helped me understand a lot and I greatly recommend watching them or making appointment if you don't have time. Also, I might have misunderstood but she doesn't have bone loss and speaks from a very detailed understanding of her own health. This is in her videos but osteoarthritis occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones wears down over time, so not the bones. Good luck to you :)
@@olinayoung6287 I don’t think the person has watched ALL of her videos or only heard part of it. I know she has osteoarthritis and not arthritis. I hope you (Music Lover) will watch all her videos so you can be as informed as we are. Take care.
@@knackfulknitter, Thanks :D!
