This was so so informative. I’m 81 and learned so many things about myself, my body. I had breast cancer 20 years ago and had to go off hormones and had horrific hot flashes for YEARS! I still do once in a while. I am waiting for a call from my breast surgeon of years ago to see if I may go on oestradiol. I have longevity in my family but I want my inner body to stay healthy for as long as possible. Thank you both for this Wonderful video…I so appreciated it.
At 69, with SLE, very high cholesterol/ LDL (ox), 40 lbs extra weight , and a lot of carotid plaque, I’m just starting bioidentical transdermal HRT. I was told for years I could not use it because of lupus being estrogen linked! This podcast has Bern extremely informative… thank you both!
Louise, I am so glad that you have had this interview with Felice. I watched one of her videos recently when she explained that after onset of menopause, that the ovaries continue to produce testosterone. I wasn’t aware of this, but it might explain why when I was in my late fifties and beyond, I still felt strong and really quite fit and healthy. You make a formidable force together, thank you.
Dr Gersh is so knowledgeable and explains everything so well. One of my absolute favourite hormone and menopause specialists 🤩. Thank you both so much for this discussion 💛💛xx
Thank you for this very instructive podcast. I had a hysterectomy at age 33 due to a prolapse of the uterus. I was put onto estrogen at about 44 not sure which type but have been on Estrodial for at least 10 years , so have been on HRT for about 36 years . I am 80 and was told by the cardiologist that I have a strong heart. I walk, do aerobic and balance exercises, am within my BMI. Try to eat healthy regularly, and enjoy a small glass of red wine with my evening meal. Am on BP medication unfortunately but would love to be able to get off it, but guess it's too late at my stage of life.
Wonderful!!! I am estradiol and progesterone for about four years now... has been amazing, I practice other lifestyle recommendations such as you both mention; nutrition, movement, light and ofcourse great sleep BUT now I have a new thought! Will ovary and pituitary modifications/ transplant be offered soon?!!! I think I would jump on that lol
Dr Louise and Dr Felice are hands down the two best menopause specialists on utube. MORE conversations please! ❤

Thank you! I've upped my estrogen recently, and my neck and shoulders pain of many years went away!

It's the adrenal glands that produce testosterone, not the ovaries that stop working.
Thank you so much for being there for us and for supporting with knowledge so many of women with our "fight for ourselves "!!! ❤❤❤

So happy to see you two connecting. I was just wanting to ask Dr. Newson what you think of Dr. Gersh’s idea to take HRT cyclically?
I am interested to know this too.
My dream team has
finally come together! Thank you so much for this interview and discussion.
