"Keep your stress as low as possible" LOL! At 50 we are dealing with aging parents, pre-early adulting kids and/or grandkids that the pre-early adulting kids can't care for, we didn't have jobs that gave us retirement, so we have to work longer. It's no surprise our adrenals give out!
Agree! In my experience Brahamari Pranayama (Bumble Bee breathing) helps in keeping the stress low, and gives ability to handle everything calmly without instant reaction, also helps with hot flashes!
@@Carvegirl Oh, stop. With all due respect. When will we realize that there is much in the Bible that is human interpretation. How is God loving and all-knowing and yet He decides it’s just to punish every woman forever because the first one messed up? And why do some women suffer women problems and labor pains more than others through no fault of their own? The Bible may be God inspired but it is not perfect. It was written in an era when they considered all form of suffering and disease a punishment. Got leprosy? You or your parents must’ve been terrible sinners.
Natural menopause at age 45. It's been pure hell! Through it I now have hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue. My life completely changed. My body completely changed. I am 55 now and hot flashes are beginning to fade. Weight has only increased. Even after doing strict keto for 1 year and only losing 34 lbs. I miss my thin self. My energetic self. My positive self. I still practice low carb keto but I don't lose weight. My body hurts the longer I stand, with abdomen swelling that is so unbearable. My beloved activities have taken a nosedive. Thanks for the info Dr. Berg, it's always appreciated. 🌿🕊️💕
You should do weight resistant exercise or weight lifting. Cut back on cardio and try intermittent fasting. See if that helps with your weight loss. January I was 151lb. Now I am 133lb. I am 54. Most people or myself did not see me as overweight but the BMI had me overweight by a pound so I figured I could lose a pound and ended up losing 20lb so far.
I Thank “GOD” that I didn’t know or feel the effects of menopause, I think I was going through some things in my life, that I missed the experience of it! I kind of laugh at myself when I think about how I missed out on it, but not really because when I hear and see about other Women experience of menopause I feel sorry and sympathize for how hard it is for them and the symptoms that they experience. May “GOD” Bless All Women, With Continuing Faith, Strength And Peace To Endure!!!
Thank you for your empathy. It has affected my marriage, my job, my friendships and I don’t feel like myself. Anxiety is never ending and little things you wouldn’t even think are an issue such as insulin like he mentioned, among many other things. It’s sad. I would give a ton to have my old days/nights back again to where menopause wasn’t something I thought about every single day. It’s such a challenge because it affects both your brain as well as your body
I don’t believe you. My sister said the same thing. No so-called symptoms and literally breezed through it. Wrong. Ask your loved ones. They may have a different account of your experience.
Please see videos of menopause barbie: you can go through menopause with a breeze: not experiencing any bad symptoms but after 15 years then very serious diseases happens.
Look up the link between hot flashes and diabetes, it turns out that hot flashes are potentially hypoglycaemic attacks in many women, basically your blood sugar is crashing (especially at night) so ditching the sugar, regulating your insulin levels, stops the hot flashes. It worked for me too!
Yes since menopause my energy level has gone out the window. I joined my recreation center to walk in the winter months, but getting myself to get out and do it UGH🙁 God Bless You and Your Family Dr. Berg FOREVER AMEN🙇♀️✝️🙏 Keep up the Great Work you do🌟
I went through my periods like a breeze Went trough 3 pregnancies the last two at age 41 and 44 At 47 everything went out the window emotions,anxiety, crying, no energy ,dizzy, ...the list goes on and on Who would of thought .. Im nothing like I used to be This has been a nightmare I want my old self back and dont know how to get there.... Help
Super heavy periods before, stress of worring about pregnancy at 52, then stress of divorce... oh, how I wish I would have had your videos at the time. 62 now and working hard to make healthy choices.
I had breast cancer 5 years ago. HER2 positive, negative for estrogen receptors, weak for progesterone receptors. I’m skeptical to take anything for hormone support. Suggestions? I’m 53, healthy and totally cancer free 🙌🏼🙏💪🏼
Your story sounds almost identical to mine I am 6 years out her2 pos and am in post menapause at 51 thankful but these new symptoms are throwimg me off a bit
Dr Berg I'm 51 and Im from Cape town South Africa.i gained 20kilos in less than a yr. I thanked God for you.for all your wonderful advice and your videos. You are awesome. Thank you thank you thank you
Remember when hormones kicked in as a teen? Well, in my non-medical perspective, menopause is the reverse of that, the dying out of the hormones. Unfortunately, they don't die quietly, but go out kicking and screaming.
I've been eating healthy for 25yrs and I'm almost 55 and I've no symtoms of any menopause this was my aim to prove that healthy diet is the answer oh and no doctors medication either ..
Thanks for sharing this. I don't really have a healthy diet but I'm still gonna give it a try and see.....I'm just entering into this phase ☹️.....but no doubt a healthy lifestyle is key to a healthy body

Brilliant information. 😁 Being Keto/IF these past 18 months has significantly helped me to get through the Menopause much easier, the huge weight loss must have helped too of course. 🤗 Thanks again for always sharing such important information with us all, & take care of yourself too. ❤🙂🐶 Blimey, just realised you put up 3 videos today, we are blessed. Thankyou. 👍🤗
I lived keto after both my kids to help me stay thin and keep up with being a single mom...my life was so stressful but I endured. Then menopause and my daughter in addiction (she is recovered and sober now), dog dying and several other things at one time hit me. My stomach hurt all the time, bathroom trips up drastically and I just gained weight ate whatever and now at 53 keto isnt working, I feel 85 and I am exhausted, have belly fat and just so frustrated this menopause is a curse. Hot flashes, sleep distruption, body pain...I get very depressed I dont even recognize myself in anyway anymore.
I hear that loud and clear. It’s the most unpleasant daily obstacle I face every day even on HRT. Who is this person? Not the old me I knew for the majority of my life, I’m grieving that person.
I've been on high dose bioidentical progesterone cream for many years. Honestly, a life saving cream! It was within a few days that I felt relief from a lot of these symptoms..I'm 48. Been on it since 40. WHEN i decided to quit do to "fear mongering" bad info. I relapsed. I will not stop it. I feel amazing on it. Thank you again, Dr. Berg for the factual info. So grateful for your work. :)
I wish I had started the natural progesterone cream earlier. I do it the way Dr John Lee suggests. If you think about it, the body is used to having huge influxes for long periods of time of progesterone by way of the corpus luteum...
The effects of menstruatation and menopause can be pretty much avoided with a healthy diet full of vegetables and greens/supplements and exercise- preferably with weights...meditation and self care go a long way as well. Also very good boundaries dealing with toxic individuals. Women need to take care of themselves over 40- it’s imperative to our health and mood.
I went on keto in Oct of 2018 and 8 months after I did I quit having periods and went into full menopause. I lost 45 pounds from keto. I'm feeling ok. Oh I'll be 51 this yr.
It makes sense why so many women suffer because by the time the menopause kicks in their adrenals are worn off and the support is just not there. But lucky there is more and more study now reviewed about the benefits of Bioidentical Hormonal Therapy and the beauty of hormonal supplements.Intermittent fasting and the right diet of the right food is crucial : don't be scared of healthy fats, healthy protein intake and minimum of Carbs intake. Very interesting study, thank yo Dr Berg.
Menopause is where my gut issues began. I have gastritis and was told that I should eat a low-fat diet. I finally asked for a referral to a registered dietitian bc I want to wean off of PPI and feel better now that I’m past menopause.
It’s rare for me to disagree with doctor Berg but on this matter I do. With a lifetime of stress nothing is going to repair the adrenals to a helpful degree and the loss of estrogen has major health consequences. The estrogen is never coming back unless you get it from an external source.
I’m past menopause, but forwarded this video to my younger friend going through menopause. But I truly learned so much more. Dr Berg thank you for clarifying such an awful transitional time for us! I love your white board along with explanations! I miss them in your recent 2022 videos with your farmer casual look and fabulous beard! Appreciate your get to the point instead of dragging us through! 👏
It's HELL! That's what it is. I have all the symptoms to the severe end, but yet what is worse is the loss of brain function. I can barely put a sentence together. Memory is gone. Multi tasking gone! The pure rage is horrific. I wanted to choke my dog and smash her head. Birth control pills saved my life (and my dogs). I was 80% back to normal within 2 days of taking them. 8 months later, I am now looking into Bio-Identical Hormones. Of course insurance does not cover it.
Still too young for this but its great to be informed . I notice on keto my period became better and pain on my right side ovary when away. Now I don't do keto hard core like I used because I enjoy fasting better but I still keep eye on eating fat. I notice that once I started to introduce sweets back again the pain on right side is creeping back again on my period but not at same level it was before. I I truthly believe that keto and fasting have reduced my pain on my right ovary.
You're really never too young for this. Premenopause and Perimenopause can start in your early 30's. The key is maintaining the healthiest balance possible; unfortunately, so many women are on synthetic hormones for a good share of their reproductive lives, in addition to environmental estrogens, etc. Men, including young men, are affected as well.
Have you ever had your ovaries examined by way of ultrasound? I had pain in my gallbladder for years but all tests show that my gallbladder was fine; the pain was actually coming from one of my ovaries and I had a cyst on it. All the medical professionals say that cysts do not cause pain, but mine did... for years and finally it was discovered when I was pregnant with my second child during the ultrasound, only because I was pregnant.
@@ilovenoodles7483 I did and I do have cysts. They are small and only on right side. They told me they were not problem because of size. I don't care what they say I feel pain only that side the right ovary. But it got better with fasting and keto
@@ishtar0077 I have a small cyst on my left ovary and every month I get pain there. It’s always on the left side, the cyst definitely causes pain even though it’s small. They told me the same but it can go away so there’s hope 😌
It all started for me at 47. Insomnia last night, night sweats, up an hour early, jump in my car.. just to see 4:50 in the car when it should read 5:50.… So I got up an hour early!
Thank you for this great video Dr. Berg. I was suffering from dehabilitating hot flashes for months despite taking DIM and other supplements like Vitex to balance my hormones as well as applying bioidentical progesterone cream every night until I found one of your videos about hot flashes and finding out the real problem: weak adrenals. I am being followed by a naturopath who tested my adrenals and my results were normal so she didn't think they were the problem. But as soon as I started taking a supplement to support the adrenals, the hot flashes completely went away (as long as I'm taking them). I can't thank you enough Dr. Berg.
Hello Dr Berg, thanks for sharing. In my early 40's. Am not overweight, am skinny, I eat a lot, but healthy food and do exercises. I haven't slept since over 2 weeks ( also been having heavy stress at work ). I wake up to a pool of sweat 5 to 6 times in the night, I can't sleep or fall asleep, just keep turning left and right until it's morning time. During the day, my body just suddenly heats up and then cools down throughout the day. It's winter time here in Germany. I started taking shower before bed, but it didn't help. I visited the doctor ( did blood test, results isn't out yet ) and she gave me a prescription for Mirtazapin to help me sleep at night. While it helps me sleep, I still wake up to a pool of sweat 2 to 3 times in the night ( instead of 6 times like before ), But am able to fall asleep because of the medication. However, I still end up not sleeping through out the night. I wake up tired and my eyes hurt. My heart goes out to other women experiencing the same circle. It's depressing.
@@doroth215 as we all know women have tons of hormonal stuff going on during their lifetime which affects many things from mood swings to sexual desires, you name it
@Spicy Artisan Hipster Salami with the hormone replacement, are you able to sleep throughout the night without having night sweats or hot flashes? Or you don't experience those?
I’m confused..estrogen is very LOW w/menopause. One needs to increase it to relieve symptoms & ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT to prevent ❤️disease (#1 killer of women), osteoporosis (much more concerning than most women realize) breast cancer & dementia (SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.) Take hormone replacement; it’s PROTECTIVE of your overall health & wellness & the bonus is relief of all the symptoms😌
I spent most of my life as a vegan, and slowly edged into menopause in my 60's. I had no mood swings, hot flashes, dryness and recently did a master's degree (good for keeping the mind sharp). I never regretted skipping animal hormones...and there weren't many organic choices back then. You grew your own veggies and planted ample fruit trees when you bought your first starter home. The world has changed...and so has menopause!
Peggy Genoway your good karma (thought) you created with your positive attitude (thoughts) is now raining down on you as good health and good looks And an age when many peoples health is in decline your’s is flourishing Good for you.)
@@YeshuaKingMessiah There is no such thing! All animal foods are full of their own, natural hormones, and dairy especially! Dairy comes from PREGNANT cows with a HUGE hormone load!
Strange... I ate vegan my entire adult life and it made me very sick! When I started eating Keto I started to heal from Sarcoidosis in my lungs and my breathing and memory improved dramatically! Bonus! I guess everyone is different. I was given 2-5 years to live when I was diagnosed 10 years ago and I’m feeling and breathing much better now then ten years ago. I’m 63... I’m glad vegan worked for you but if anyone is suffering with Sarcoidosis please try Keto.
I'm 44 years old and I'm going to control my menopause with keto and IF. I have rheumatoid arthritis and I'm going through menopause early. I won't let these man made symptoms control me.
Well this is just a sheer coincidence this video came up. Amazing😮 I just basically won the lottery🎉 So far. Negative to cervical cancer. Yes! Going back in 6 months. I knew I was estrogen dominant. Because of Doctor Eric Berg videos. I agree with everything you have said. People are dropping like flies. Cancer is killing so many people here in the country. 6 years. Unhealthy diet. I am a Queenslander. Fish,salad, organic vegetables etc living and eating country food. Bad news. Keto lifestyle as best as possible has turned my life around. I went though menopause out here. Went from size 12 to 20. Unbelievable. Ugly fat. Then last year so sick. I found Doctor Eric Berg and keto. Then bought a device to check blood. Shocker 9.5. Then my small success story started. 10 months later. No depression, sugar levels down, more energy, and bonus lost 10 kilos. And it's stayed off. Back to a healthy Queensland diet. Confession. I did do very 3 in catering operations. Unfortunately I started to bake cakes all types of unhealthy foods. I just wouldn't eat in Queensland. No exercise. I was an outdoor sports person. Cycling, paddling on my ski etc..... Thats how I got into the cancer dangerous zone. Now I do keto as best as possible, love fasting - autophagy, red light therapy machine from Rojo company Australia. And exercise. Doing my best to keep cancer at bay! I will listen to this video about 10 times and study it. Inside out! They should teach us at schools about our body's. Without a doubt. Oh I am inserting estrogen cream for 6 months. 🤞Thank goodness for Doctor Eric Berg
Let’s not mention the occasional dizzy spells unable to sleep feeling depressed all the issues in my case my doctor just wanted to give me anxiety medication’s. I began taking B 12 feel much after yrs of suffering!
Mindful video.. So much great help for us! Such a nice explanation.. Thankyou so much.. As always the video is knowledgeable ! Thinking where were I in all many years! Dr Berg has been working on these videos more than 13 years approximately if I am not wrong.. These may years so much of his precious time!! One word for Dr Berg is Angel 😇
When I went through that years ago, I was determined to not make a big deal about it and just accept it as a Natural course by the body as it adjusts and not fight it. I had hot flushes on and off, for up to two years but I just ignored it all, and suddenly it was gone.
@@Lyndengeo if not allergic try herbal infusion of ginger in water as it helps to regulate temperature and a cold water compress on forehead or back of neck will help to cool the blood when needed. This is what I did. So sorry to read about your troubles. I may have got off lightly with that but we all suffer from somethings and there is no escaping everything.
@@Lyndengeo Are you friends w mr. Ice tea? Costco sells thar shite by the gross, which is good, you'll need it. Glass or metal carafe. Tea bag in very full 1 cup Pyrex. Add vitamin C tea, too. Jewel's. Heat 1:30. Cool. Metal and glass get extremely cold. Either that, or move to Chicago, where it's been like spring to us old ladies. Being inside w a coat on is WAY WAY worse than being outside.
Very timely! Thank you, Dr. Berg! I used the wild yam topical progesterone cream (Emeritus brand) when I was going through menopause, and it really helped me. Prior to using it I felt PMS symptoms all month long. It was miserable. Now that I’m post Menopause - like 7 to 8 years later, I’m going to start using it again. I’m STILL experiencing hot flashes. I have reduced sugar and carbs, given up alcohol, stay out of the sun. I don’t know what else to do. I will check out your videos on adrenal support and add Vit. E to my daily supplements. Reliable info on menopausal issues is rare, so your video will help quite a few women, I’m sure. Also want to mention that reducing carbs and sugars and therefore extra weight will help reduce incidence of cysts.
@@laurasunderland7 I haven’t bought it in a number of years but I think at a health food store. You can look online. I was going to look for it again because I was having hot flashes but they seem to have subsided. Maybe they’ll be back. Hope not!
I started keto about 2 months ago. Before that I was overweight, prediabetic and menopausal. Had hot flashes and more symptoms, didn't menstruate more then once, maybe twice a year. After 2 months of keto, I not only lost 7 kilo's, but began having periods again! Had two periods in these 2 months! Hot flashes, sluggishness and tiredness and irritability: gone! I didn't expect that!!
Some women manage to get pregnant during menstruation. My nurse friend who help doctors during delivery recently told that she had a patient 49 year old who was going through delivery. Her menstruation stopped a year ago but she got pregnant. She came to GYN with a suspicion she has a tumor in her belly. GYN said she gonna deliver this tumor in three month.
I waited forever to be done with menstruation. The transition wasn't bad; no night sweats & not many bad hot flashes. Six years later I feel totally ripped off with all the other changes. 🤬🤬🤬
No knowledge is useless. It will help you understand women better than your pears, help women in your life even in the simplest of ways; your mum, sisters, friends, future wife and daughter. Consider yourself lucky and blessed. Knowledge is power.
Hot flashes suck BAAAD! My labedo is fine & everything else except atrophy! Menopause is over & thanks to you I lost 53 lbs in 8 months! I always download every single video
Men get something much much worse...the intestines slip through the cavity and end up in the ball sack. Not kidding. Most men suffer from severe pelvis pain after Andropause. Their Testosterone levels drop so low that muscle mass no longer exists. Brittle old men... It is not the size of the bone that determines how strong it is for the weight it carries, it is the consistency, the makeup of the material that determines the quality of bone. I see it in chicken all the time. BIG chicken (looks healthy outside) had brittle big bones that easily snap, and the little chicken's bones were extremely dense but smaller and thinner. I could not break that little leg bone even with 2 hands, while I snapped the big one with 2 fingers.
Colin Quinn Thank you for your post, Colin. Many girls envy the guys because they run faster, lift heavier and aren’t plagued with monthly mood swings, but they seem to forget that men are just human, too, with problems women rarely think about. Having to go through life being ‘the tough one’, the ‘protector and provider’ isn’t everyone’s cookie. Young men these days have it especially hard because women can fulfill many tasks themselves and no longer need a provider or a protector, which leaves many male humans without a sense of purpose or accomplishment. On the other hand, women can achieve both... get satisfied by being a parent AND be the provider AND protector at the same time. Women also have the choice of not becoming pregnant by taking birth control if they wish to do so, which enables them to focus on their own life (for the first time in human history), rather than being put into a situation they didn’t long for.
Thanks for the info, really surprised that more female doctors don’t give this much info, it’s a lot we need…. I went from being slightly anemic and always chilly to now sleeping with fans in March and April, All Day my fan is going…..the hot flashes are sooo real!! And there’s not a lot of info on this so it’s very frustrating.
Did you get vitamin C tea to use iron? Jewel's. Make it w regular bag. Cool and carafe in metal or glass. Huge godsend. Also, the Sumo oranges are in :)))
Hello. We will add this to our video suggestion list. For now, please see the videos about menopausal: www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=menopause -Dr. Berg's Support Team
I am in the Peri-menopause stage, hot flashes nightly and it feels like otherwordly teenage puberty hell all over again!! I am losing my mind. My libido is on 🔥
Menopause is not an illness ..... leave it up to Mother Nature .... don't use it as an excuse to feel depressed .... You are still the same Girl .. Keep smiling .. You are FREE now !
I am sooo confused about all this estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, post menopausal symptoms. I’m 58, taking a synthetic estradiol .5 mg and a progesterone lotion with herbs. I don’t sleep well at all. Was doing pretty good with the night sweats/hot flashes being diminished until a months ago. Now I’m getting them all the time. I just cry and throw my hands up feeling defeated at being an older woman!!!
I take liquid black coach I dropper fill it helps tremendously at nite or anytime & I also take liquid ginseng & make ice tea with ginger root & honey it’s really improved my hot flashes & nite sweats almost gone rarely have anymore

Thankyou for this video Dr Berg! So what can you do if you had a complete hysterectomy ? Doctors don't give you any advise after the surgery. I am experieng these symptoms for a number of years now and did not know what it was.
Thank you so much for this video! I turn around my borderline high cholesterol to normal levels by replacing everything low fat with full fat in my kitchen. However, what is remedy to digest and absorb fats properly, ACV or some other things... video on how to help digest fats with right combination of foods will help! Thanks. 🙏🏻
Dr. Berg’s “Estrogen Balance” is the only thing that took away my hot flashes (all the other products I tried stopped working after about a month). I am not getting paid for this endorsement- wish I was!
When i started keto within a few weeks all hot flashes stopped. Another odd symptom, i stopped sweating from my armpits about 5 years ago and just recently i started sweating again. I always thought it was abnormal to not sweat from the armpits.
Dr Berg please put hysterectomy on your list of topics to vlog. Especially surgically induced hysterectomies both total where all the reproductive organs are removed and partial where the cervix and at least an ovary are NOT removed. For women in their 40s.
Hey Dr Berg, first thank you for the great advice which I have been following for about a year. Just one question - I’ve heard of other women taking maca root, what’s your opinion?
I am 50. Menopause is my real horror movie. I did not hear one single positive thing about menopause in this video, and I know Dr Berg is the most positive and nicer person in youtube. This is the end of my beautiful life😢
Sarah P, the natural Vitamin E is the best one compared to the synthetic Vitamin E. If you look at the label of a Vitamin E bottle, be sure it says d-alpha-tocopherol. Anything that has a “dl” prefix is synthetic.
WOW WOW WOW! Did you ever nail all my issues Dr. Berg! Almost didn’t watch this one since I’m four years done with Menopause but my sissy sent me this one to see if I’ve heard of yam cream. Everything rang so true. I thank you so much for these ideas👏🏻👏🏻and laughed at your Time To Party Now! If only!
No offense Dr. Berg but I have never had female issues. Don’t assume menstrual cycles are bad for all! My period only lasts 2-3 days and I’ve only had cramps about 7 periods in my life. Being vegetarian is probably the reason
I m 25 and I think menopause is difficult emotionally aswell coz getting periods makes u feel women and when it stop s it hampers emotionally aswell 😐 atleast for me I feel it's like nightmare like from getting first period to menopause life passed so soon ......this menopause thing shivers me from inside I got menarche at 11 which is early n nowadays women are getting premature menopause
The beauty of all this is that we have Doc. Eric Berg to break down for us exactly what is happening to our bodies, and inform us about good nutrition and supplements and exercise We need to do to help our bodies. We don't have to suffer like our moms did in the past or be exposed to doctors who were totally insensitive. We have help! ! Beautiful cruciferous vegetables , vitamin d, vitamin e etc. So cheer up, my dear, all is well.
It's so unfair. After years of dealing with menstruation we have to deal with the issues of menopause. I need to speak to the manager up in heaven.
See it differently: our reward is that we can have babies and: WE ARE WOMEN!!! 😊😊😊

It was written in an era when they considered all form of suffering and disease a punishment. Got leprosy? You or your parents must’ve been terrible sinners.

Natural menopause at age 45.
It's been pure hell! Through it I now have hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue.

You should do weight resistant exercise or weight lifting. Cut back on cardio and try intermittent fasting. See if that helps with your weight loss. January I was 151lb. Now I am 133lb. I am 54.

Me too !
Look up the link between hot flashes and diabetes, it turns out that hot flashes are potentially hypoglycaemic attacks in many women, basically your blood sugar is crashing (especially at night) so ditching the sugar, regulating your insulin levels, stops the hot flashes. It worked for me too!
Me too
Mine didn't
Ive never had a hot flush but Ive always eaten reasonably well and exercised. Maybe that was the key
No disrespect Dr, but most of these start at Perimenopause. I really wish doctors covered this topic more.
Yes - totally agree!
Totally agree
@Kim S I was in full menopause at age 39
Im nearly 55 and have only just reached perimenopause. Hopefully I dont get any symptoms so far so good 🤞
Who told you you were in perimenopause? Once you have not had your period in a year then you’re in menopause.
Yes since menopause my energy level has gone out the window. I joined my recreation center to walk in the winter months, but getting myself to get out and do it UGH🙁 God Bless You and Your Family Dr. Berg FOREVER AMEN🙇♀️✝️🙏 Keep up the Great Work you do🌟
Same .....zip energy
@@jocelyngail4196 Yes!
I went through my periods like a breeze Went trough 3 pregnancies the last two at age 41 and 44 At 47 everything went out the window emotions,anxiety, crying, no energy ,dizzy, ...the list goes on and on Who would of thought ..

You are so right!!, and off to work I go my employer does not care and does not understand I dont feel good!
Super heavy periods before, stress of worring about pregnancy at 52, then stress of divorce... oh, how I wish I would have had your videos at the time. 62 now and working hard to make healthy choices.
I had breast cancer 5 years ago. HER2 positive, negative for estrogen receptors, weak for progesterone receptors. I’m skeptical to take anything for hormone support. Suggestions? I’m 53, healthy and totally cancer free 🙌🏼🙏💪🏼
Your story sounds almost identical to mine I am 6 years out her2 pos and am in post menapause at 51 thankful but these new symptoms are throwimg me off a bit
Look at dr Louise Newsom. Some great info there with the patches, sprays now. Might help U. Less risky as not absorbed into liver they say.
Dr Berg I'm 51 and Im from Cape town South Africa.i gained 20kilos in less than a yr. I thanked God for you.for all your wonderful advice and your videos. You are awesome. Thank you thank you thank you
Preaching to the choir!
Remember when hormones kicked in as a teen? Well, in my non-medical perspective, menopause is the reverse of that, the dying out of the hormones. Unfortunately, they don't die quietly, but go out kicking and screaming.
Amen..
Best comment
More screaming than kicking 😉
@@kc3304 Oh, my, yes.
😂😂😂😂
I don't care what it is I just wish it would stop...😤😤😤
Me too
Amen to that! Just go away already!😊
I've been eating healthy for 25yrs and I'm almost 55 and I've no symtoms of any menopause this was my aim to prove that healthy diet is the answer oh and no doctors medication either ..
I had no problems with periods or menopause. I'm 70 now and have no major changes. Still doing everything I use to do.
Thanks for sharing this. I don't really have a healthy diet but I'm still gonna give it a try and see.....I'm just entering into this phase ☹️.....but no doubt a healthy lifestyle is key to a healthy body
Thanks for sharing this. I don't really have a healthy diet but I'm still gonna give it a try and see.....I'm just entering into this phase ☹️.....but no doubt a healthy lifestyle is key to a healthy body
Omg!!!!!! You are my motivation
Brilliant information. 😁 Being Keto/IF these past 18 months has significantly helped me to get through the Menopause much easier, the huge weight loss must have helped too of course. 🤗 Thanks again for always sharing such important information with us all, & take care of yourself too. ❤🙂🐶
Blimey, just realised you put up 3 videos today, we are blessed. Thankyou. 👍🤗
I lived keto after both my kids to help me stay thin and keep up with being a single mom...my life was so stressful but I endured. Then menopause and my daughter in addiction (she is recovered and sober now), dog dying and several other things at one time hit me. My stomach hurt all the time, bathroom trips up drastically and I just gained weight ate whatever and now at 53 keto isnt working, I feel 85 and I am exhausted, have belly fat and just so frustrated this menopause is a curse. Hot flashes, sleep distruption, body pain...I get very depressed I dont even recognize myself in anyway anymore.
I hear that loud and clear. It’s the most unpleasant daily obstacle I face every day even on HRT. Who is this person? Not the old me I knew for the majority of my life, I’m grieving that person.
What HRT? Have you tried Wild Yam cream and Vitamin E? Dr Berg recommended and I read some good reviews.
You can get IBS, too. That's the worst. Imagine the worst, anyway.
Do things for yourself.
Enjoy life!
Be busy with what makes you feel happy...
And everything will be better 👍
@elenatsaka5729 thank u elena
The knowledge you have to share is invaluable. We all need to learn about our own bodies. Thank you, sharing
I've been on high dose bioidentical progesterone cream for many years. Honestly, a life saving cream! It was within a few days that I felt relief from a lot of these symptoms..I'm 48. Been on it since 40. WHEN i decided to quit do to "fear mongering" bad info. I relapsed. I will not stop it. I feel amazing on it. Thank you again, Dr. Berg for the factual info. So grateful for your work. :)
I wish I had started the natural progesterone cream earlier. I do it the way Dr John Lee suggests. If you think about it, the body is used to having huge influxes for long periods of time of progesterone by way of the corpus luteum...
Which brand and strength of progesterone are you using?
@hi there She's ok. I saw that she follows the china study. Not a fan of that, but she does have some good info otherwise.
@@JustMe-mn4gr dr lee progesteron cream didn't have a good effect on me and i had to stop.
Same here, I feel alot calmer
The effects of menstruatation and menopause can be pretty much avoided with a healthy diet full of vegetables and greens/supplements and exercise- preferably with weights...meditation and self care go a long way as well. Also very good boundaries dealing with toxic individuals. Women need to take care of themselves over 40- it’s imperative to our health and mood.
We barely have time for ourselves with kids, jobs and a household. It’s so unfair.
This is like going to school on a Saturday morning, and loved it.
😍😍😍
I went on keto in Oct of 2018 and 8 months after I did I quit having periods and went into full menopause. I lost 45 pounds from keto. I'm feeling ok. Oh I'll be 51 this yr.
It makes sense why so many women suffer because by the time the menopause kicks in their adrenals are worn off and the support is just not there. But lucky there is more and more study now reviewed about the benefits of Bioidentical Hormonal Therapy and the beauty of hormonal supplements.Intermittent fasting and the right diet of the right food is crucial : don't be scared of healthy fats, healthy protein intake and minimum of Carbs intake. Very interesting study, thank yo Dr Berg.
Menopause is where my gut issues began. I have gastritis and was told that I should eat a low-fat diet. I finally asked for a referral to a registered dietitian bc I want to wean off of PPI and feel better now that I’m past menopause.
YES. Worst stomach upset in my life! Feels like friggin food poisoning. For 2 years.
It’s rare for me to disagree with doctor Berg but on this matter I do. With a lifetime of stress nothing is going to repair the adrenals to a helpful degree and the loss of estrogen has major health consequences. The estrogen is never coming back unless you get it from an external source.
I’m past menopause, but forwarded this video to my younger friend going through menopause. But I truly learned so much more. Dr Berg thank you for clarifying such an awful transitional time for us! I love your white board along with explanations! I miss them in your recent 2022 videos with your farmer casual look and fabulous beard! Appreciate your get to the point instead of dragging us through! 👏
It's HELL! That's what it is. I have all the symptoms to the severe end, but yet what is worse is the loss of brain function. I can barely put a sentence together. Memory is gone. Multi tasking gone! The pure rage is horrific. I wanted to choke my dog and smash her head. Birth control pills saved my life (and my dogs). I was 80% back to normal within 2 days of taking them. 8 months later, I am now looking into Bio-Identical Hormones. Of course insurance does not cover it.
Poor wee dog
Still too young for this but its great to be informed . I notice on keto my period became better and pain on my right side ovary when away.
Now I don't do keto hard core like I used because I enjoy fasting better but I still keep eye on eating fat. I notice that once I started to introduce sweets back again the pain on right side is creeping back again on my period but not at same level it was before. I I truthly believe that keto and fasting have reduced my pain on my right ovary.
You're really never too young for this. Premenopause and Perimenopause can start in your early 30's. The key is maintaining the healthiest balance possible; unfortunately, so many women are on synthetic hormones for a good share of their reproductive lives, in addition to environmental estrogens, etc. Men, including young men, are affected as well.
Can you explain how you fast?
Have you ever had your ovaries examined by way of ultrasound? I had pain in my gallbladder for years but all tests show that my gallbladder was fine; the pain was actually coming from one of my ovaries and I had a cyst on it.
All the medical professionals say that cysts do not cause pain, but mine did... for years and finally it was discovered when I was pregnant with my second child during the ultrasound, only because I was pregnant.
@@ilovenoodles7483
I did and I do have cysts. They are small and only on right side. They told me they were not problem because of size. I don't care what they say I feel pain only that side the right ovary. But it got better with fasting and keto
@@ishtar0077 I have a small cyst on my left ovary and every month I get pain there. It’s always on the left side, the cyst definitely causes pain even though it’s small. They told me the same but it can go away so there’s hope 😌
It all started for me at 47. Insomnia last night, night sweats, up an hour early, jump in my car.. just to see 4:50 in the car when it should read 5:50.… So I got up an hour early!
Thank you for this great video Dr. Berg. I was suffering from dehabilitating hot flashes for months despite taking DIM and other supplements like Vitex to balance my hormones as well as applying bioidentical progesterone cream every night until I found one of your videos about hot flashes and finding out the real problem: weak adrenals. I am being followed by a naturopath who tested my adrenals and my results were normal so she didn't think they were the problem. But as soon as I started taking a supplement to support the adrenals, the hot flashes completely went away (as long as I'm taking them). I can't thank you enough Dr. Berg.
Can you share the name of the supplement and where you got it? Thanks!
How long will you take the adrenal supplements for?
Dr Berg has great adrenal support pills. When I could afford to buy them, I was using them.
Christine Caron, please share
@@candymenard6428 Good question - I'm not sure. For now, I need to take them daily. If I skip a few days, the hot flashes come back - not fun ☹.
Hello Dr Berg, thanks for sharing. In my early 40's. Am not overweight, am skinny, I eat a lot, but healthy food and do exercises. I haven't slept since over 2 weeks ( also been having heavy stress at work ). I wake up to a pool of sweat 5 to 6 times in the night, I can't sleep or fall asleep, just keep turning left and right until it's morning time.
During the day, my body just suddenly heats up and then cools down throughout the day. It's winter time here in Germany. I started taking shower before bed, but it didn't help.
I visited the doctor ( did blood test, results isn't out yet ) and she gave me a prescription for Mirtazapin to help me sleep at night. While it helps me sleep, I still wake up to a pool of sweat 2 to 3 times in the night ( instead of 6 times like before ), But am able to fall asleep because of the medication. However, I still end up not sleeping through out the night. I wake up tired and my eyes hurt.
My heart goes out to other women experiencing the same circle. It's depressing.
Sounds like you need a thorough physical including blood work
@@youtoo2233 Did blood test. Waiting for the results.
@@doroth215 as we all know women have tons of hormonal stuff going on during their lifetime which affects many things from mood swings to sexual desires, you name it
@Spicy Artisan Hipster Salami with the hormone replacement, are you able to sleep throughout the night without having night sweats or hot flashes? Or you don't experience those?
F
It's so brilliant information.Thank you so much Doctor Berg.
I’m confused..estrogen is very LOW w/menopause. One needs to increase it to relieve symptoms & ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT to prevent ❤️disease (#1 killer of women), osteoporosis (much more concerning than most women realize) breast cancer & dementia (SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.) Take hormone replacement; it’s PROTECTIVE of your overall health & wellness & the bonus is relief of all the symptoms😌
I spent most of my life as a vegan, and slowly edged into menopause in my 60's. I had no mood swings, hot flashes, dryness and recently did a master's degree (good for keeping the mind sharp). I never regretted skipping animal hormones...and there weren't many organic choices back then. You grew your own veggies and planted ample fruit trees when you bought your first starter home. The world has changed...and so has menopause!
Buy animal meat, offal, eggs & dairy, etc without added hormones.
That is excellent. Congrats on the master's degree! What a great way to enhance brain health for the long-term.
Peggy Genoway your good karma (thought) you created with your positive attitude (thoughts) is now raining down on you as good health and good looks
And an age when many peoples health is in decline your’s is flourishing
Good for you.)
@@YeshuaKingMessiah There is no such thing! All animal foods are full of their own, natural hormones, and dairy especially! Dairy comes from PREGNANT cows with a HUGE hormone load!
Strange... I ate vegan my entire adult life and it made me very sick! When I started eating Keto I started to heal from Sarcoidosis in my lungs and my breathing and memory improved dramatically! Bonus! I guess everyone is different. I was given 2-5 years to live when I was diagnosed 10 years ago and I’m feeling and breathing much better now then ten years ago. I’m 63... I’m glad vegan worked for you but if anyone is suffering with Sarcoidosis please try Keto.
So nice listening to you Dr... such a calm and confident voice. Thanks
I'm 44 years old and I'm going to control my menopause with keto and IF. I have rheumatoid arthritis and I'm going through menopause early. I won't let these man made symptoms control me.
Man didn't make them, our bodies did.
Well this is just a sheer coincidence this video came up. Amazing😮 I just basically won the lottery🎉 So far. Negative to cervical cancer. Yes! Going back in 6 months. I knew I was estrogen dominant. Because of Doctor Eric Berg videos. I agree with everything you have said. People are dropping like flies. Cancer is killing so many people here in the country. 6 years. Unhealthy diet. I am a Queenslander. Fish,salad, organic vegetables etc living and eating country food. Bad news. Keto lifestyle as best as possible has turned my life around. I went though menopause out here. Went from size 12 to 20. Unbelievable. Ugly fat. Then last year so sick. I found Doctor Eric Berg and keto. Then bought a device to check blood. Shocker 9.5. Then my small success story started. 10 months later. No depression, sugar levels down, more energy, and bonus lost 10 kilos. And it's stayed off. Back to a healthy Queensland diet. Confession. I did do very 3 in catering operations. Unfortunately I started to bake cakes all types of unhealthy foods. I just wouldn't eat in Queensland. No exercise. I was an outdoor sports person. Cycling, paddling on my ski etc..... Thats how I got into the cancer dangerous zone. Now I do keto as best as possible, love fasting - autophagy, red light therapy machine from Rojo company Australia. And exercise. Doing my best to keep cancer at bay! I will listen to this video about 10 times and study it. Inside out! They should teach us at schools about our body's. Without a doubt. Oh I am inserting estrogen cream for 6 months. 🤞Thank goodness for Doctor Eric Berg
"Estrogen also comes from your own FAT ..." Then the marker makes a raspberry sound, Right on que! LOL
As much as I didn't like my cycle. I didn't want to go away. It became part of me.
ME TOO!!!!!....😔
Let’s not mention the occasional dizzy spells unable to sleep feeling depressed all the issues in my case my doctor just wanted to give me anxiety medication’s. I began taking B 12 feel much after yrs of suffering!
Is Dizzy spell a symptom , I'm 45 can't bear it will ask my doc for b12 shots
Dr Berg please do a video on premature ovarian failure at age 30 hitting menopause
I finally get it, thank you very much, great explanation.
Mindful video..
So much great help for us!
Such a nice explanation..
Thankyou so much..
As always the video is knowledgeable !
Thinking where were I in all many years!

These may years so much of his precious time!!
One word for Dr Berg is

Do we love this great man or what?
Odd that many of us have teenagers during peri-menopause. That's not helping keep the stress low!
Truer words have never been spoken!!

Do we know how much Vit e to take and how often?
As someone who loves being a mother and wanted more kids, this is not a party for me, it is a sad reality. Very hard for me to deal with.
@@harvestingsouls74 so glad to hear this. Sometimes it feels women don't care about motherhood and I really appreciate hearing this.
@@nancyann1090 A lot of women would rather not have loser guy's kids, tho...so best to play it off like you don't want that, b/c you got no choice.
When I went through that years ago, I was determined to not make a big deal about it and just accept it as a Natural course by the body as it adjusts and not fight it. I had hot flushes on and off, for up to two years but I just ignored it all, and suddenly it was gone.
Lucky you. 11 yrs of hot hot hot no sleep of quality.

Very timely! Thank you, Dr. Berg! I used the wild yam topical progesterone cream (Emeritus brand) when I was going through menopause, and it really helped me. Prior to using it I felt PMS symptoms all month long. It was miserable. Now that I’m post Menopause - like 7 to 8 years later, I’m going to start using it again. I’m STILL experiencing hot flashes. I have reduced sugar and carbs, given up alcohol, stay out of the sun. I don’t know what else to do. I will check out your videos on adrenal support and add Vit. E to my daily supplements. Reliable info on menopausal issues is rare, so your video will help quite a few women, I’m sure. Also want to mention that reducing carbs and sugars and therefore extra weight will help reduce incidence of cysts.
See Barbara Hoffman's channel on UA-cam.
Where do you buy your wild yam cream?
@@laurasunderland7 I haven’t bought it in a number of years but I think at a health food store. You can look online. I was going to look for it again because I was having hot flashes but they seem to have subsided. Maybe they’ll be back. Hope not!
Don't mess w my only reason to live. Lol
I think wild yams is estrogenic...
Was sooo happy to have no periods, mine were heavy and very painful. But its the weight gain tiredness that are rough fir me!😴✌️♥️
I started keto about 2 months ago. Before that I was overweight, prediabetic and menopausal. Had hot flashes and more symptoms, didn't menstruate more then once, maybe twice a year. After 2 months of keto, I not only lost 7 kilo's, but began having periods again! Had two periods in these 2 months! Hot flashes, sluggishness and tiredness and irritability: gone! I didn't expect that!!
Good job!

Some women manage to get pregnant during menstruation. My nurse friend who help doctors during delivery recently told that she had a patient 49 year old who was going through delivery.
Her menstruation stopped a year ago but she got pregnant. She came to GYN with a suspicion she has a tumor in her belly. GYN said she gonna deliver this tumor in three month.

So what supplements and foods do we take during perimenopause?
Hot flashes suck BAAAD! My labedo is fine & everything else except atrophy! Menopause is over & thanks to you I lost 53 lbs in 8 months! I always download every single video
Watching this gave me a hot flash. I’m going to be a man in my next life.
Men get something much much worse...the intestines slip through the cavity and end up in the ball sack. Not kidding. Most men suffer from severe pelvis pain after Andropause. Their Testosterone levels drop so low that muscle mass no longer exists. Brittle old men... It is not the size of the bone that determines how strong it is for the weight it carries, it is the consistency, the makeup of the material that determines the quality of bone. I see it in chicken all the time. BIG chicken (looks healthy outside) had brittle big bones that easily snap, and the little chicken's bones were extremely dense but smaller and thinner. I could not break that little leg bone even with 2 hands, while I snapped the big one with 2 fingers.
Colin Quinn Thank you for your post, Colin. Many girls envy the guys because they run faster, lift heavier and aren’t plagued with monthly mood swings, but they seem to forget that men are just human, too, with problems women rarely think about. Having to go through life being ‘the tough one’, the ‘protector and provider’ isn’t everyone’s cookie. Young men these days have it especially hard because women can fulfill many tasks themselves and no longer need a provider or a protector, which leaves many male humans without a sense of purpose or accomplishment. On the other hand, women can achieve both... get satisfied by being a parent AND be the provider AND protector at the same time. Women also have the choice of not becoming pregnant by taking birth control if they wish to do so, which enables them to focus on their own life (for the first time in human history), rather than being put into a situation they didn’t long for.
🤣🤣🤣
lol, tell me about it 😏😩...

Thanks for the info, really surprised that more female doctors don’t give this much info, it’s a lot we need…. I went from being slightly anemic and always chilly to now sleeping with fans in March and April, All Day my fan is going…..the hot flashes are sooo real!!

Can u do video on full hysterectomy ooperhectomy bilateral surgery menopause plzz
HRT saved me
I am in the Peri-menopause stage, hot flashes nightly and it feels like otherwordly teenage puberty hell all over again!! I am losing my mind. My libido is on 🔥
@Keslyn Nguyen Not on me. Lol
Dr bergs advise has always been spot on… but get rid of stress ? lol yeah id need to cash my ticket in to Glory today ! 💕
Menopause is not an illness ..... leave it up to Mother Nature .... don't use it as an excuse to feel depressed ....
You are still the same Girl .. Keep smiling .. You are FREE now !
Unfortunatly Mother nature doesen’t always work that well.
I developed Erythromelalgia this year with menopause and it’s been so hard.
Premenopause stage since 2018, & welcome menopause, readily. I experienced a lot of these issues with just having a menstrual cycle! So, ugh!
Do you have any advice for a Male going through menopause ?
I am sooo confused about all this estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, post menopausal symptoms. I’m 58, taking a synthetic estradiol .5 mg and a progesterone lotion with herbs. I don’t sleep well at all. Was doing pretty good with the night sweats/hot flashes being diminished until a months ago. Now I’m getting them all the time. I just cry and throw my hands up feeling defeated at being an older woman!!!
I take liquid black coach I dropper fill it helps tremendously at nite or anytime & I also take liquid ginseng & make ice tea with ginger root & honey it’s really improved my hot flashes & nite sweats almost gone rarely have anymore
I like 1/2 a Wana edible. The Strawberry lemonade.
Excellent explanation.
I'd just like to try and help some people reading this... I hadn't had a normal period in many months, until I started taking Selenium (after researching) - please... always do your own research and be guided by professionals.
I hope this helps at least one person :)
Guide us for a surgical menopause it is different with a complete hysterectomy
Yes!!!!!
I would love to hear ur take on when pre menopause can start
Thankyou for this video Dr Berg! So what can you do if you had a complete hysterectomy ? Doctors don't give you any advise after the surgery. I am experieng these symptoms for a number of years now and did not know what it was.
Thank you so much for this video! I turn around my borderline high cholesterol to normal levels by replacing everything low fat with full fat in my kitchen. However, what is remedy to digest and absorb fats properly, ACV or some other things... video on how to help digest fats with right combination of foods will help! Thanks. 🙏🏻
How did you lower your cholesterol? My cholesterol is high and my doctor tells me I can't take fats anymore
There is a great channel on Utube " Menopausal Taylor" , she is an excellent teacher, just like Dr Berg, about all issues after life change.
Dr. Berg’s “Estrogen Balance” is the only thing that took away my hot flashes (all the other products I tried stopped working after about a month). I am not getting paid for this endorsement- wish I was!
Wonderful information as usual. Thank you much.
When i started keto within a few weeks all hot flashes stopped. Another odd symptom, i stopped sweating from my armpits about 5 years ago and just recently i started sweating again. I always thought it was abnormal to not sweat from the armpits.
Dr Berg please put hysterectomy on your list of topics to vlog. Especially surgically induced hysterectomies both total where all the reproductive organs are removed and partial where the cervix and at least an ovary are NOT removed. For women in their 40s.
Yes great suggestion
Vaginal dryness that all male doctors seem to go on about are the least of our problems during menpause!!!!
Strongly disagree
Nobody wants flabby, forty and bald.
I have PCOS and am in mid-twenties and I am already practicing this.i guess I will be doing this till the end of my life.hepls a lot.
Hey Dr Berg, first thank you for the great advice which I have been following for about a year. Just one question - I’ve heard of other women taking maca root, what’s your opinion?
Keto carnivore fixed my period at age of 45. I have been suffering from irregular period until that age.
Keep your stress as low as possible= don't talk to your family. Period.
I am 50. Menopause is my real horror movie.
I did not hear one single positive thing about menopause in this video, and I know Dr Berg is the most positive and nicer person in youtube.
This is the end of my beautiful life😢
Not at all. Please see Barbara Hoffman's channel on UA-cam. You won't be disappointed. ;0)
Dr berg can you explain more about the sort of vitamin e that is helpful, maybe link to a source you would suggest. Thank you
Sarah P, the natural Vitamin E is the best one compared to the synthetic Vitamin E. If you look at the label of a Vitamin E bottle, be sure it says d-alpha-tocopherol. Anything that has a “dl” prefix is synthetic.
@@crh251 Thanks!!!!!!
Yes please.
What about natural hormone therapy?? My mom said that she was taking natrual hormones which she got compounded and she said it really helped her
WOW WOW WOW! Did you ever nail all my issues Dr. Berg! Almost didn’t watch this one since I’m four years done with Menopause but my sissy sent me this one to see if I’ve heard of yam cream. Everything rang so true. I thank you so much for these ideas👏🏻👏🏻and laughed at your Time To Party Now! If only!
No offense Dr. Berg but I have never had female issues. Don’t assume menstrual cycles are bad for all! My period only lasts 2-3 days and I’ve only had cramps about 7 periods in my life. Being vegetarian is probably the reason
Mine were like that too. I went thru menopause at 47. 😅
He’s talking about menopause not how great your menstrual cycle is or was🤦🏾♀️ How your menstrual cycle is may not be how you experience menopause.
I m 25 and I think menopause is difficult emotionally aswell coz getting periods makes u feel women and when it stop s it hampers emotionally aswell 😐 atleast for me I feel it's like nightmare like from getting first period to menopause life passed so soon ......this menopause thing shivers me from inside I got menarche at 11 which is early n nowadays women are getting premature menopause
When you get a period is based on % body fat. Fat kids get it early.
