- The Dayton Study gave testosterone implants to 1268 women and followed them for 10 years. The surprising results of that study - a 39% reduction in breast cancer cases.

I was given Testosterone patches in early 2005, by September I had a golf ball size gynecomastia in left breast, stopped patches.
2 years later I got Physical therapy and got lump in right breast.
Both lumps were xrayed, and both went away and have not returned.
The left breast lump, VA Dr took 10 syrings samples in Sept 2005.
I hv question hormonal therapy in menopause what will happen to periods don’t they get again monthly periods .need to clear that ?how long hormonal therapy s needed .kindly clear this question thanks
Thank you, Steve! When it comes to the “hormone optimization specialists” that you recommend - what are typically their qualifications/trainings/titles? Are they MDs? Endocrinologists? (Mine just treats diseases, such as thyroid disease, osteoporosis, etc., I think. I brought up TRT with him once, and he literally said nothing.) Functional Medicine providers? (Is this a regulated “industry”, btw?)
In other words - how do laypeople find “legitimate” hormone optimization providers? I have contacted you before for a provider in my area, which was not successful. Perhaps I’ll try again, in case something’s changed.
@cm1906 That's a great question!
The majority of providers I recommend have been through training programs with reputable continuing medical education (CME) organizations. Two that I've personally taken courses with are Worldlink Medical and The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M).
I also have personal relationships with quite a few of the providers I refer patients to. I've had email conversations, Zoom calls, and phone conversations with dozens of hormone specialists. Just got a call from Dr. Hank Martin in South Carolina a couple days ago.
The providers I refer to are MDs, DOs, nurse practitioners, physicians assistants, naturopathic doctors. There are "legitimate" hormone providers in many areas of the US and Canada. Certainly there are lots of areas where it's hard to find one. North Dakota . . . not so easy. California and Florida . . . lots of them. Oddly enough, Upstate New York isn't that great.
One thing to remember is that insurance doesn't usually cover hormone optimization specialists. Or they choose to have a cash-based medical practice. Health insurance is designed for the sick care system, not keeping people healthy.
@@SimpleHormones Thank you for your detailed reply, Steve. I appreciate it!
Is DHEA a precursor to testosterone and how safe is it? I was prescribed 50mg together with a estradiol/ progesterone tablet. I'm still deciding what to take...please help!
DHEA is a “utility hormone.” It can be transformed into several other hormones like estradiol and testosterone. It’s actually quite safe with basically zero evidence of major side effects or risks. Dr. Fernand LaBrie from Quebec spent his life studying DHEA.
@@SimpleHormones thank you! I eventually came across one of your video on DHEA. Thank you for your informative channel!
I wonder why so many pellet doctors concentrate on putting in a lot of testosterone compared to estradiol? A friend of mine was on pellets for awhile but stopped. She’s now on patches and is doing better. Pellet doctors seem to be notorious for testosterone overload.
@crh251 It’s possible to get too much testosterone with pellets. That’s why I recommend making sure your provider has lots of training and experience with them. On the other hand, this study shows that even relatively high doses seem to be pretty safe, with some side effects.
The North American Menopause Society does not recommend the use of pellets.
@@Katepwe, you’re right. That’s why I wear an estradiol patch and take the oral progesterone. I think a lot of times doctors are afraid of estrogen so they add more testosterone to pellets which can then turn into estrogen. That’s just my theory since I wrote this post seven months ago, but yes, you’re right; NAMS does not support pellets. I think pellets are also a cash cow for many doctors.
Its a luck that here in brazil u can buy estrogen cream and oral progesterone without prescription, but no test cream for women. Just compound
Could you please expand on why you wouldn't recommend taking male testosterone? Many thanks.
@silverfoils Men’s testosterone doses are somewhere around 10 to 20 times stronger than what a woman would take.
It’s theoretically possible to take something like Androgel and divide a 20.25MG into 1/10 or 2.025MG.
But from a practical standpoint, getting the correct dosage is almost impossible. I might even have a hard time doing that with a $5000 analytical balance!
You’re going to end up with doses all over the place.
@@SimpleHormones Many thanks.
@SimpleHormones I'm on Testogel sachets. It's for men, but because it's so concentrated, it's axtually quite useful! No need to spread out lots of messy gel. 1 sachet (40.50mg) every 8 days is the usual recommended dose but I found this too high and settled on just over half of this.
Don't masculinise us please 😂
Your body makes estrogen out of testosterone. How much will vary from woman to woman.
