    Great video Dr. Anna! I love holistic doctors and deeply dislike non holistic that just wanna feed people with drugs.
    I am a hypnotherapist and also an esthetician. I can see how much of emotional issues reflect on the skin. We need to treat every being holistically for lasting results whatever it is. 💕

    OMG!! You have just explained the last 14 years of my life. Been diagnosed with fibromyalgia as well but all of this started after having my first child at 39 years of age. I've just realised I'm in peri-menopause. They tried to give me SSRI's but I said no. Will now try Fierce Nature - Menopausal Balm in the UK made with tallow as I'm hoping I won't get any MCAS reactions.

    @anne-louisegoldie 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    "It takes more than hormones to balance your hormones." 😊
    You mentioned that many women find oral micronized progesterone makes them highly anxious.
    And if so, try transdermal progesterone cream for a while and then back to oral later on.
    So it's high cortisol that's linked with the anxious progesterone response? Not an intolerance to progesterone itself?
    I'm very fortunate that my body loves Utrogestan, but I read online about so many women who stop taking HRT because of the progesterone component, and doctors panic about the endometrium, and tell the patient that HRT is unsuitable for them.
    Can you tell us more about managing cortisol? Thank you so much 😊xx

    • @thegirlfrienddoctor
      @thegirlfrienddoctor  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Thanks for watching. One of the best ways to manage cortisol is with Oxytocin. Be sure to read all about it in Dr Anna's best selling book The Hormone Fix. You can also read more here: drannacabeca.com/blogs/hormones/this-gland-wreaked-havoc-in-my-body-until-i-made-two-big-changes

    I used wild yam cream for a few months and gained weight. I didn’t realize wild yam promotes estrogen not progesterone. Anna’s wild yam has chaste berry in it which promotes progesterone but apparently not enough. I’m leaning towards bio identical HRT because it’s too much guess work in getting hormones balanced

    My Obgyn said it’s normal due perimenopause. I’m 43 years old and my period stop .
    My biopsy showed no cancer but tubal metaplasia which needs to be monitored.

    • @thegirlfrienddoctor
      @thegirlfrienddoctor  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes! Balance Cream contains natural progesterone and pregnenolone, which can help support hormonal balance by providing your body with the progesterone it might need to counteract the effects of high estrogen. It's all about creating harmony within your hormonal system. However, it's always a good idea to discuss any new supplement or cream with your healthcare provider.

    I’ve been using wild yam cream recently, but today when I applied it on the inside of my arms, my arms began to feel really warm! Not in an uncomfortable way, but I was just surprised since it hasn’t happened before. Is this normal?

    • @thegirlfrienddoctor
      @thegirlfrienddoctor  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi! It's not uncommon to experience a warming sensation when applying topical products like Balance Cream, especially in areas with thinner skin such as the inside of the arms. This can happen due to increased blood flow to the area as the skin absorbs the active ingredients. However, while a mild warm feeling can be normal, if you experience any discomfort, redness, or irritation, it's important to discontinue use and consult with your healthcare provider to ensure it's appropriate for your skin type and health needs. Thank you!
