“It takes more than hormones to fix our hormones.” - Dr. Anna CabecaWhen it comes to vaginal health, pelvic floor health, and incontinence issues, hormones play a critial role. From the type of hormones to oral formulations, injections, and topicals, there are a lot of options for hormone therapy, from the delivery vehicle to the forms of hormones used.At the same time, you can't optimize hormone health through hormone replacement only. We have to take a holistic picture, starting with the gut, lifestyle, and stress management. This approach enables the body to resuscitate, repair, and rejuvenate itself, allowing it to function at its peak. At this point, hormone therapy can offer a complementary supporting role, increasing the opportunity for optimal health and wellness.Today's guest, triple board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Anna Cabeca, has been working with women in midlife for decades, and she's an advocate for a holistic approach to hormone support, which she calls hormone replenishment.In this episode, Dr. Anna and I discuss when to start thinking about supporting your hormones, the connection between gut health and hormone balance, the need for personalized treatment appraoches, detoxification pathways, and the use of topical hormones, Dr. Cabeca's products for women in midlife, how her patients have improved their vaginal health and reversed incontinence in post-menopause, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/getting-nerdy-about-hormones-topical-transdermal-oral-oh-my-with-dr-anna-cabeca-do/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

How are your hormones today? For many of us, the answer is "I have no idea." Depending on your health, gender identity, and life stage, hormones may not be on your radar at all. But if you've experienced hormonal imbalances, especially due to menopause or perimenopause, you know that understanding and optimizing hormones can be a key to well-being. In this episode of Health Coach Talk, "The Girlfriend Doctor" Anna Cabeca joins Dr. Sandi to discuss hormones' effects on sexual health, intimacy, and relationships and share her insights into a more holistic approach to hormone health. Dr. Anna explains how our hormones impact everything from memory and mood to sex drive and motivation. These complex, intricate chemicals are connected to liver and adrenal function, circulation, lifestyle factors, nutrition, and age. Over the course of our lives, hormone fluctuation can have a considerable (and sometimes, a disruptive) influence on the delicate balance of our bodies. Hormone replacement therapy may be part of the solution, but it's probably not enough on its own. That's why Dr. Anna advocates for a holistic approach to optimizing hormone health by making intentional shifts in our habits, diets, and lifestyles.

If you're struggling with a hormone imbalance, resist the temptation to just throw more hormones into the mix  to try and fix it.    In this episode of Biohacking Superhuman Performance, I chat with Dr. Anna Cabeca - The Girlfriend Doctor,  about how environmental toxins and stress can wreak havoc on your hormones, leading to issues like irregular periods and feeling unwell. But, did you know that it can take more than hormones to fix hormones.    The good news? You can improve your hormonal health and even reverse many of these  issues naturally. We explore the importance of detoxification to eliminate those toxins and support your body's natural systems. Dr. Cabeca also highlights that birth control pills might contribute to hormonal imbalances due to synthetic ingredients. But hormones are just one piece of the puzzle. This episode emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach, including diet, stress management, and even creating a more alkaline body environment to improve mood and mental well-being.   We also dive into the power of oxytocin, the "love hormone" and how healthy activities can naturally boost your oxytocin levels. Overall, this episode offers guidance on balancing hormone health whether you're pre-, peri-, or post-menopause.    Anna Cabeca, DO, OBGYN, FACOG, is the best selling author of The Hormone Fix ,  Keto-Green 16 and MenuPause. Dr. Anna is triple-board certified and a fellow of gynecology and obstetrics, integrative medicine, and anti-aging and regenerative medicine. She holds special certifications in functional medicine, sexual health, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. She lectures frequently on these topics throughout the world to large audiences and is known nationally as The Girlfriend Doctor and is the host of The Girlfriend Doctor show.  Dr. Cabeca has personally developed natural products to help women balance hormones and thrive through menopause including the highly acclaimed Julva® cream for the vulva and MightyMaca® Plus, a powerful superfood blend.

If you struggle with abnormal menstrual cycles or feel bad all of the time, it can be turned around. You will likely need to work on detoxing from any environmental toxins. We often power through feeling crummy, but you will realize how bad you feel once you start feeling good.  Birth control can be a toxin as it is a synthetic progestin and it suppresses ovarian hormone and natural cycling. (Progestin is the synthetic (human-made) form of progesterone).  It takes more than hormones to fix your hormones. You need detoxification support, adrenal support, dietary support, and alkalization for mental health and mood.  Oxytocin is the most powerful hormone in the body. It is the hormone of love, bonding, and connection. Healthy, happy, joyous activity increases oxytocin in the body (it's the opposite of cortisol!) Some people may benefit from supplementing oxytocin, but the first step is to always clean up the system.

Plus, we should support the liver and detoxification.  Healthy habits will allow us to have our menstrual cycles for longer - it's a longevity marker. One of the risk factors for diabetes and pre-diabetes is menopause. A higher risk factor is if you've had a hysterectomy. Thirdly, if you've had your ovaries removed, you have a significantly higher risk of diabetes. If you had your ovaries removed, even before 65, your risk of cardiovascular disease is almost double.  The association with diabetes tells how important it is to maintain healthy ovarian function.  [09:10] Why Women Need More Ketones Between The Ages of 35 and 55  During ages 35 - 55, the use of glucose in a women's brain significantly decreases.  Instead, you shift to using ketones for fuel in the brain. Dr. Cabeca emphasizes the importance of greens. Depending on your symptoms, you have to pause greens, or you may have to pause meat.  Sometimes we need to challenge our gut bacteria, and sometimes, we have to support digestive enzymes. It depends on your unique needs.  [14:15] Why You May Want To Consider Using A Progesterone Cream  Dr. Anna Cabeca is a massive fan of progesterone.  There are progesterone receptors in our brain, bones, and breasts. Progesterone supports healthy breast tissue.  Plus, progesterone will support healthy metabolism and healthy neuroendocrine function.  Dr. Cabeca has used progesterone in men for anxiety and insomnia; it is a total game-changer.  Oral progesterone is excellent if you are working on sleep.  Check out Balance if you're looking for a progesterone cream: https://drannacabeca.com/products/pura-balance-ppr-cream. [22:40] Gratitude and Positive Thinking Can Make You Happier  You have to pause negative thinking.  Negative thoughts will predominate our lives if we allow them to.  Try gratitude and praying.  There is always something to be grateful for.  Gratitude is so easy to do, making it easy not to do.  People have 60,000 thoughts per day - most of them are negative. It's time to pause and think about gratitude.  [28:45] Using Mighty Maca To Alkalize The Body and Balance Hormones  Ideally, we're working on restoring our natural ovarian production or natural adrenal production. When Dr. Cabeca looks at fertility, she will look at a 21-day progesterone level.  Mighty Maca is something Dr.Cabeca recommends for adrenal support.  One of Dr. Cabeca's clients used Mighty Maca to fix her progesterone levels and finally get pregnant. Get Mighty Maca here: https://drannacabeca.com/products/mighty-maca [33:10] Unique Plans To Break Through Your Weight Loss Plateau  If you hit a plateau, it's time to pause and try something new. There are five different six-day menu plans.  The gut mucosa regenerates every 72 hours. So a six-day plan will give you two 72 hour cycles.  Here are some of the menu plans: Pausing nightshades Plant-based menu Carnivore menu A cleanse with a gallbladder liver flush Adding healthy carbs AND MUCH MORE!
