RevMD Sexbytes Sexual Wellness Podcast: Hormone Replacement FOR WOMEN. Limit unnecessary side effects! Women need testosterone too.
Description
Clear up the misperceptions surrounding Hormone replacement and women. Testosterone is necessary for women too and it does not make women grow a beard. Testosterone is a life force for women too!
Peri-Menopause happens around 40-45. A drop in progesterone and testosterone happen. Estrogen becomes dominant which can cause issues- anger, anxiety, night sweats.
Progesterone is the "feel good" hormone that will help sleep and happiness. When this drops, this is when women can tell they don't feel well. Progesterone dosages can cause a side effect of drowsiness in the morning because it is a slow release taken at night. Creams can help this side-effect if taking a capsule earlier doesn't help this feeling.
Low testosterone can lead to brain fog, low energy, low libido, no energy for exercise, and several other unwanted side effects. When testosterone levels are optimal, testosterone can help maintain muscle and therefore burn fat. Hair changes and acne is a side-effect of supplementing with testosterone. This can be avoided when it stays level and within the optimal range. Injections can be hard for some because of the consistency. Pellets are a great option to keep all levels consistent.
Pellets are one of Dr. Durst and Farideh's favorite treatment options for hormone replacement with fewer side effects and fewer spikes. Every patient is different and treatment plans need to optimized for that particular patients.
