Based on the video with Dr. Attia and Dr. Huberman on HRT, I started it after being in menopause for 3 years. Best decision ever! Energy 🆙 Mood 🆙 Insomnia ⬇️ Brain Fog ⬇️ Hot Flashes ⬇️

I'm 9 years out of menopause. I"m considering starting HRT because I have CONSTANT Fatigue and some depression that meds and therapy aren't helping enough with. Thanks for your comment. gives me hope.
Very interesting. I’m surprised you recomend starting hormones replacement before menstruations stop. I wish this knowledge would be more shared in Europe. Great job, thx
Wish that another total study on menopause and HRT would be done using women at various peri menopause and menopausal stages. Using bioidentical hormones (including testosterone).
Thanks Peter, i feel like middle age woman go through a lot due to hormones and it not usually discussed or acknowledged
Would love to see a video on on treating pre menstrual dysphoric disorder or extreme PMS with progesterone or birth control
Thank you for the information. Would you mind doing a video about endometriosis or having a guest endometriosis specialist on your podcast to help explain the condition and consequences associated with it (fertility, general health, symptoms). Thanks!
Loving these short vids w great, summarized, important things to remember in practice. You make medicine even more exciting. Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
As always great information! Can you do a video on perimenoposal testosterone treatment and proper dosing?
Dr. Attia, your videos are so clear and interesting. Thank you so much
Superbly well explained, thank you Peter!
This was super informative. I'm curious to know if/ how you'd treat perimenopause symptoms with progesterone. I'm 43 but noticing lots of sleep disturbance and difficulty with weight gain despite fasting and eating a really clean diet and I've wondered if it's connected to perimenopause.

Thank you Dr. Attia
Excellent advice and thank you
Excellent way to explain 🥰
Thanks Peter!
Thank you so much sir for you incredibly useful information.
These videos are awesome - thank you 😊 What is it that affects symptoms in day 0-7, and what can people do to reduce symptoms in that period like nausea, low energy, cramps etc? 😊

High doses of magnesium help (up to 800 mg). You just need to find a form you can tolerate well (I take a supplement with all kinds of magnesium forms in it).
Dr Attia- I’m so thankful that you are discussing these women’s issues. It means a lot! I found progesterone cream to be a miracle when I was in my 40s and going through perimenopause. Now I am 55 and three months away from going a year without a period and I’m talking with my doctor about hormone replacement therapy. He is prescribing a 100mg progesterone pill nightly, and an estrogen patch, and testosterone, but the pharmacy gave “Dotti” for the estrogen patch instead of Vivelle Dot. I was wondering if you would kindly speak into this? Do you think it’s satisfactory or should I avoid Dotti? I saw online that it didn’t get the best reviews. Thank you in advance for taking the time to respond.
I feel like this is probably a pretty stupid question, but why can’t women receive HRT equal to premenopausal levels.

They should. But no one really cares about women’s health enough to start recommending it.

There was a study a number of years ago, called the Women’s health initiative (WHI), which studied female HRT, and the headlines that emerged scared many doctors away from the concept. The study was flawed, but the conclusions are still debated. Peter discusses it with Andrew huberman in their podcast, in peters podcast episode 253 and in Andrews podcast with Sara gottfried. Among others

I take testosterone and I’m in my thirties. So your answer is yes, we can do HRT at any time our hormone levels are off. If I wasn’t on T, I would be about 15 lbs heavier than I am not and it’s NOT a pretty look on my 5 foot frame.

@@msbond86How much do you take? My doctor prescribed me a gel to rub on my skin once a week, but I am scared of side effects. My testosterone is below range, so I know I need it though.

I do. I couldn’t imagine life before HRT. The testosterone makes the biggest difference of all. I went from feeling old and tired, opting out of the competitive sport I’ve been competing in since I was a teenager, to feeling young again. I’m competing again as well as running a busy hobby farm including horses, dairy goats chickens gardens etc… Thank god for my doctor!
Can you delve into PMDD? Symptoms and possible treatments
Do you recommend HRT for women with history of fibroids and myomectomy as a result?
Can exercise in the last phase of the cycle (d21-period) impact how fast the progesterone levels drop? In other words, can period start earlier than on the 28th day if a woman exercises vigorously in the last phase of her cycle?
How do you measure levels if a woman misses cycles? How do you know what stage of the cycle you are on if you don't have a cycle?
Hello Dr. Attia, When should women (not perimenopausal or menopausal) do a blood test to most accurately measure FSH? Im 27. Does it matter when I get my blood drawn as long as I know where I'm at in my cycle? Thank you!

you should benchmark your hormons in your 20s, 30, so you can have a clear pic once you are in your 40s and 50s
I’m 63 and never did HRT because I was scared off by the breast cancer issue. Now I have osteopenia and want to start HRT. I have a uterus. Is it too late? Menopause at 52

You might talk to an obgyn treat menopausal women with HRT. There is a 5-10 years postmenopausal window to reap the benefits. You be able to start HRT in slower increment.

Look up “Simple Hormones” with Steve Goldring discussing doing HRT when in mature age. On KZread, very helpful and reassuring.
HRT is tricky and there still seems to be controversy about the safety of hormone therapy. If a women has had a PE during her reproductive years, could she still go on HRT?
I haven’t had a cycle for 10 years and I’m only 49. I had a ablation so how can I figure out the phase?

You need to educate yourself about perimenopause.
