    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 ⬇️

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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 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?

    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 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.
