In this conversation, Dr. Felice Gersh discusses the complexities of different formulations of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and the benefits of cycling on and off progesterone versus a continuous dose. She emphasizes the importance of considering the whole body when addressing menopause and not waiting until someone is fully menopausal to address the problem. Dr. Gersh also explains the different types of estrogen and their effects on various receptors in the body as well as the benefits of hormone therapy in terms of growth factors, immune system regulation, and cancer prevention. She highlights the need for adequate hormone dosing and the importance of shedding the uterine lining through cyclic progesterone use. Additionally, she discusses the role of lifestyle factors in achieving optimal health as well as the need for informed consent with the use of hormone replacement therapy.

Quotes

"We're not thinking about menopause as just our periods, right? We're thinking about estrogen and progesterone's effect on our heart, on our brains, on our bones, kind of the whole body."
"Hormones are foundational, but not sufficient to healthy longevity. You still have to eat the right foods and work on fitness, sleep, stress, and environmental factors."
