    S3 Ep164: Is Bioidentical Always Best?
    2025/01/23
    Many, if not most women and clinicians believe that bioidentical estrogen is always best when it comes to post menopause hormone therapy. This comes from the premise that bio-identical estrogen is completely natural and therefore safer and more effective than other forms of estrogen. Except that is not necessarily true. In this myth-busting episode, I discuss: Why words and terms need to have precise meanings The difference between HT, HRT and MHT The three general categories of estrogen Synthesized Conjugated Bioidentical How the term bioidentical came to be Four myths about bioidentical estrogen Bioidentical estrogen is completely natural Bioidentical estrogen is safer than other forms of estrogen Bioidentical estrogen is more effective than other forms of estrogen Bioidentical estrogen is less likely to cause breast cancer than other forms of estrogen.

    2024/12/26
    As 2024 ends, I decided to revisit the top episodes from last year. If I were to go by my favorites, choosing would be impossible. According to the number of downloads, the two top contenders are Top Tips for Skin and Hair with Dr. Ellen Gendler and Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause with Dr. Vonda Wright. I am going to update Dr. Gendler's episode in a few weeks. In this episode I am going to revisit Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause with Dr. Vonda Wright. Dr. Vonda Wright, an orthopedic surgeon has made it her mission to raise awareness about the musculoskeletal changes that occur because of menopause, and how a lack of estrogen sabotages the ability to be active. And that lack of activity not only impacts bone health and cardiovascular health but also cognitive function. At the end, is an update on what has happened since I recorded that episode. In this episode: · The six symptoms of musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause · The relationship between GSM and dementia · Why frozen shoulder is the number one complaint · The relationship of menopause to osteoarthritis · The impact of mobility on cognitive function · The impact of menopause on frailty · The impact of testosterone on musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause · Exercise and cancer risk reduction · How heavy your weights should be to increase muscle power Dr. Wright’s publication Wright VJ, et al.

    If you would like to read a transcript of this episode along with some additional information, head on over to my substack- substack.com/@DrStreicher Chances are you have heard at least one expert say that systemic hormone therapy will prevent heart disease. But you also may have heard other experts say, No- if you don’t have hot flashes or low bone mass, it is not recommended to take hormone therapy to prevent heart disease down the road. So, who is right? Why is this controversial? Isn’t the data, the data? In this episode, I explain why experts are not all on the same page when it comes to the long-term cardiovascular benefits of hormone therapy. · The Difference between a Randomized Controlled Trial and an Observational Trial · Why the WHI was an excellent study- and why it was problematic · What we learned From the WHI about Hormones and Cardiovascular Health · The Study of Women Across the Nation (SWAN) · What we learned From the SWAN about Hormones and Cardiovascular Health · What we learned From the SWAN about Hormone therapy and Cardiovascular Risk · What we learned From the SWAN about Hormone therapy and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease · If hormone therapy should be prescribed for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease- the view of the two opposing sides Lauren Streicher, MD is a clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine, and the founding medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause and a Senior Research Fellow of The Kinsey Institute, Indiana University.
