    Thank you Dr Newson. I really appreciate your educational videos. I never felt right since 2009, even when I went on HRT (oestrogen and progesterone) and I was one of those who was saying, not so long ago, I am too old for the menopause. I am 58 and I knew menopause was destructive, but had no idea of just how destructive it can be. I am now awaiting testosterone blood results form the NHS. I am glad you came along as you have probably prevented lots of future physical and mental problems for me, thank you again. 🙏

    This is reassuring for me. I have just taken my first pill last night and first patch on my abdomen this morning. I’m 66. My doctor asked me to do a mammogram first , which had come back normal thank goodness, so all good to go. Hope I don’t put on weight, but looking forward to better sleep and less aches. Have to take the pill on an empty stomach and no food for an hour after, so that cuts out snacking before dinner.

    Dr Newson, thank you for this video.
    I really appreciate you and the significant contributions you make to womens health.
    I am 67 and did not experience side effects from menopause that interfered with my daily functioning until 2 years ago. Now my search for a dr who will listen and work with me has been a challenge. However, because of you I will keep trying.
    Thank you.

    Thank you, this was so educational. As a 63 year old woman who has never used HRT, I am really suffering with sleep disturbance and increasing urinary symptoms, especially at night. Years ago I was advised by GP not to take HRT as my mother had developed breast cancer while on it and my risk would be high.

      Vaginal eastrodial pessaries tablets have worked wonders for my unrainy frequency and urgency. It was so quick to take effect too. Finally I can make it back from the shops without running to the loo as soon as I get through the door. It`s a localised dose so safer. Vagifem was the brand I was given

    Dr. Marty Makary debunks even the whi breast cancer myth in the hrt chapter of his just released book "Blind Spots", though, as so many, he thinks that hrt 10 yrs beyond menopause is useless-- which I don't agree with! Well worth reading his interviews with people who conducted that terrible study and what really transpired. Ty, Dr. Newson, for your channel!

    Thank you for this informative video, Dr. Newson. I read 'Estrogen Matters' last year to try and understand my own personal risk as a 67 menopausal women who had early stage breast cancer 15 years ago. What I still find a little bit difficult to ascertain is if there is a different risk for HRT and recurrence vs HRT and initial cancer? Watching your video, perhaps I missed it, the statistics you mentioned were for initial diagnosis? Is there a different risk for recurrence? Also, if someone is on HRT and they are diagnosed with a hormone sensitive cancer, is HRT stopped? Thanks.

      I thought that the right hormones, including testosterone, would regulate cortisol. Where did you hear it took over? I've noticed more of cortisol since menopause and I am on oestrogen and progesterone and am awaiting bloods results for testosterone as I would like to try that.

      @nicolemerz1731 2 місяці тому +1

      Many women and medial societies are fighting this scary misinformation based on the flawed 2002 WHI study at the moment. Modern hormones are safe and the warnings refer to the old synthetic and horse urine "hormones". Pharmaceutical companies love to scare women away from their own (cheap) hormones and rather sell expensive statins, betablockers, sleeping pills and the like to them instead🤷‍♀️😡. Get better informed. A cream is not good
      enough, get the progesterone pill, the estradiol gel + testosterone!

    Several OBGYN that I follow says, that if you are 10+ postmenopausal, you need to have your heart health evaluated (before going on HRT) because that there can be calcium build up in your arteries in the years that has passed since menopause. And when you go on HRT it can risk loosen the calcium buildup and cause a stroke. You did not mention this?

The Dr didn't tell me I would gave my pms and perimenopause and my history of heavy bleeding from my endermetriosis, aches and pains fluey symptoms and uti and cold flushes and severe cramping like labour pains really excruciating pains !
    Heavy bleeding with blood clots !
    Been a nightmare in and out Dr gave me mefenatic acid 500mg and tranexamic acid 500mg, metronidazole 400mg and trmethoprim 200mg!
    Dr told me that if I don't stop bleeding my pesary isn't going to work meaning I've got to stop my estragel!
