Why I Raised My Estrogen After Cancer I'm breaking down what really happens when estrogen drops, and why I chose to increase mine after a cancer diagnosis instead of avoiding it. I share my own experience with low estrogen, from skin changes to brain fog and libido loss, and explain the difference between rhythmic and steady dosing. You'll hear why estrogen isn't the enemy, how it can be one of the most powerful tools for health and longevity, and what you need to know to optimize metabolism and avoid the crash that happens when levels plummet. If you're navigating perimenopause or menopause and want a personalized approach instead of one-size-fits-all advice, this conversation will give you the clarity and direction you need.

In this thought-provoking episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons welcomes Dr. Jeffrey Dach for a powerful discussion on bioidentical hormones, estrogen, and the myths that have shaped women's health for decades.Dr. Dach draws from over 40 years of clinical experience and research to challenge the mainstream narrative that estrogen causes breast cancer. Together, he and Dr. Jenn explore how estrogen protects DNA integrity, why natural progesterone is vastly different from synthetic progestins, and how iodine and testosterone play overlooked but vital roles in breast cancer prevention.Along the way, they trace the history of hormone therapies—from DES and Tamoxifen to modern-day aromatase inhibitors—revealing both the progress and the persistent dogmas of conventional medicine. This is a conversation about evidence, empowerment, and the urgent need to rethink how we approach women's health.Because of its depth and importance, this conversation has been divided into two parts. This episode is Part 1 of 2.In This Episode, You Will Learn:Why estrogen may protect against breast cancer rather than cause itThe truth about estrogen receptors and how they shape cancer riskThe critical difference between natural progesterone and synthetic progestinsHow testosterone supports breast cancer preventionWhy iodine deficiency remains a hidden driver of diseaseThe historical evolution of hormone therapies—from DES to TamoxifenHow entrenched medical dogmas persist despite new evidenceEpisode Timeline Highlights00:00 Introduction to Dr. Jeffrey Dach & the Hormone Debate 08:15 Breaking Away From Conventional Medical Training 16:32 Estrogen Receptors & The Women's Health Initiative Revisited 24:48 Estrogen as a Guardian of DNA Integrity & Historical Shifts in Cancer Treatment 33:10 Pregnancy, Hormones, & Breast Cancer Protection 41:22 Estriol, BiEst, & The Work of Dr. Rebecca Glazer 49:55 Iodine's Role in Breast & Thyroid Health 58:40 Progesterone Deficiency, Progestins, & Cancer Risk 1:07:12 Pharmaceutical Influence, Processed Foods, & Inflammatory Triggers 1:15:36 Fertility Decline, Chronic Disease, & Why Medical Beliefs Resist Change

In this 20-minute episode, Courtney walks listeners through four common TTC tensions—creating embryos (IVF), genetic screening/selection, donor eggs/sperm & surrogacy, and data-driven tracking—without handing out black-and-white verdicts. Instead, she anchors each topic in Scripture (Psalm 139; Job 31:15; Jeremiah 1:5; Proverbs 16:9; Genesis 2:24; Ephesians 5:31–32; Proverbs 3:5–6; Philippians 4:6–7) and offers heart-level reflection prompts to help couples discern before God. You'll pause to journal, check your motives around control vs. stewardship, and hear a testimony of finding peace when science becomes a gift—not a god.   Try Inito THE Fertility Tool you Need - as shared today, this is the tool I just started using as we begin preparing for conceiving baby 3!!

In this episode of Inspire Health with Jen, Dr. Jen White tackles the often-overlooked topic of hair loss—not just as a cosmetic concern, but as a deeper signal from the body. She explores the root causes, including hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, stress, autoimmune conditions, and emotional health. With a compassionate, whole-body approach, Dr. White offers practical tools and insights to help listeners understand and address the true sources of their hair loss. Through real-life case examples, she illustrates how healing begins when we listen to what the body is truly saying. Themes:  Hair loss is the body speaking—not failing. The “three-month rule” helps pinpoint the root cause. Estrogen dominance is a common hormonal trigger. Low iron and B vitamins can weaken hair health. Stress and a dysregulated nervous system play a big role. Autoimmunity can drive hair loss and needs care. Emotional and energetic imbalances also matter. Nutrition, stress support, and hormone balance help restore hair. Case studies show the power of personalized healing. Healing happens when we listen to the body's signals. Connect with Jen: 

The Secret Sauce for Shedding Pounds isn't just about diet or workouts—it's your liver. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down how your liver impacts fat loss through detox, blood sugar regulation, hormone balance, inflammation reduction, and mindset. If you're stuck in your weight loss journey, your liver may be the key. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS The liver produces antioxidants like glutathione that directly reduce inflammation and support fat metabolism. Hormone balance—especially estrogen and cortisol regulation—depends on liver health. Blood sugar regulation starts with the liver, which stores and processes glucose after meals. Fat cells become inflamed without proper liver function, leading to leptin resistance and weight gain. Sustainable fat loss requires mindset shifts—and liver support helps you regain control.

Today, Ali sits down with a true powerhouse in the infertility community: Rebecca Flick, Chief External Affairs Officer at RESOLVE, who has spent the past 20 years advocating for fertility patients nationwide. Rebecca opens up about her own deeply personal infertility journey, including her diagnosis of premature ovarian failure (and how that language has evolved), discovering she carries the MTHFR gene (and what that really means), and navigating IVF. She shares her experience of transferring three embryos, welcoming her son (now a teenager), and conceiving her daughter years later—without ART. Rebecca also reflects on the power of advocacy, how RESOLVE has grown, and the ways the infertility landscape has transformed over the past two decades.For more, go to www.resolve.orgFollow on IG: @resolve TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: TTC; ART; IVF; MTHFR gene; premature ovarian failure; embryo transfer; advocacy EPISODE SPONSORS: BEAUTIFUL BIRD AND WORK OF ARTAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe latest book in the Work of ART series, “Beautiful Bird” tells the story of three parents, one incredible boy and a family built with love—and a little bit of science.Pre-orders are available now!

Hormones can be wild, especially in perimenopause and menopause, and sometimes it feels like no one talks about just how much they mess with your mind, mood, and energy. But there's a real science behind why things feel off, and it's not all in your head. I sat down with my friend and hormone expert, Dr. Betty Murray, to talk about the gut-brain-hormone connection and why it's such a big deal for women in this season of life. She's not only a Functional Medicine Pioneer with over 20 years of experience, she's also the Founder of The Menrva Project, a game-changing platform rethinking menopause care. We talk about the stuff most doctors skip, why testing your hormones (not just guessing!) matters, how your gut health plays into your symptoms, and how stress totally hijacks your body. Dr. Betty shares what she's seeing work in real time with her clients and why truly personalized care makes all the difference. If you've ever been told “it's just aging” or felt brushed off, this one's for you. She also gives some real-life tips like what to eat, what to watch out for, and simple things that can actually help you feel like yourself again. It's not about fixing you (because you're not broken) but about understanding what your body needs in this new chapter. Whether you're just starting to notice changes or you're deep in the hormone rollercoaster, there's something here for you. And if you're looking for something fun (and seriously good for you), I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango! It's everything I love about Mighty Maca Plus, but with a zesty mango twist that's perfect for summer. Try it with sparkling water, pour it over ice, or even make popsicles with the kids. It's delicious and loaded with the good stuff your body will thank you for. You can check it out at dranna.com.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction.

In this episode of Perimenopause Simplified, Claudia is joined by Dr. Ana Duarte, a medical doctor, expert in anti-aging and longevity medicine, and CSO of Eusari Nutrition. After 15+ years in pharmaceutical research, Ana hit her own perimenopause wall: burnt out, disconnected, and completely unprepared for the changes in her early 40s. That experience led her to pursue advanced training in women's health and longevity – and to discover just how overlooked midlife women are. No roadmap. No conversation. Just silence, shame, and guesswork. So she founded Eusari, a science-backed wellness brand built by and for women in perimenopause and menopause.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ In this illuminating episode of Sex with Emily, Dr. Emily Morse sits down with Dr. Will Cole, a leader in functional medicine and author of Gut Feelings, to explore how emotional and physical health are deeply connected, and how addressing both is essential for a thriving sex life, better relationships, and holistic well-being. Dr. Cole explains the "shameflammation connection"; how repressed emotions like shame, guilt, and stress can cause chronic inflammation, impacting libido, energy, and connection. He breaks down this mind-body cycle where emotional stress manifests as physical illness and offers somatic tools for healing, emphasizing that nervous system regulation is crucial to breaking this loop through breathwork, stillness, and rituals that bring people back into their bodies. We dive deep into the gut-brain connection and its major role in mood, hormone balance, and sexual health. Dr. Cole reveals how processed foods, sugar, and unresolved trauma can hijack desire and performance, while discussing silent inflammation and hormone imbalances that often show up as low libido, fatigue, or anxiety. He uses advanced lab testing to find hidden causes when patients say "I don't feel like myself." The conversation addresses shame around pleasure and sexual identity, highlighting how culture often teaches us to suppress pleasure or disconnect from desire. Both Emily and Dr. Cole agree that reclaiming sensuality starts with removing shame and practicing compassionate self-awareness.

In this empowering, fascinating, and fun episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz is joined by internationally respected hormone expert, best-selling author, and educator Dr. Lindsey Berkson. With over four decades of experience in clinical practice, hormone research, and medical education, Dr. Berkson brings unmatched depth to the conversation about one of today's most pressing and misunderstood health issues: hormone disruption.   Together, they unpack how declining hormones—especially estrogen, testosterone, and oxytocin—are impacting intimacy, energy, fertility, and long-term health. Drawing from her background as a Distinguished Hormone Scholar at the Center for Bioenvironmental Research at Tulane/Xavier Universities, Dr. Berkson explains why libido is not just about desire—it's a vital sign of overall health.   She also shares her personal journey as a DES-exposed daughter, cancer survivor, and thought leader in functional endocrinology, giving the episode rare perspective and actionable clarity.   Tune in, take notes, and begin rebuilding the biochemical foundation of your vitality.   Some of What You'll Learn in This Episode:   How endocrine disruptors like plastics, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals interfere with hormone signaling The global rise in Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG) and its role in locked-up hormones and low libido Why loss of oxytocin is contributing to anxiety, disconnection, and immune decline The impact of elevated SHBG, cytokines, and inflammation on fertility, mood, and aging The link between hormone disruption and early-onset estrogen-driven cancers How safe, bioidentical hormone therapy differs from conventional approaches—and why it matters Why “loss of libido” should be treated as a clinical warning sign, not dismissed as a lifestyle issue Foundational tools for supporting hormone health through detox, nutrient therapy, and intimacy The key lab markers most conventional providers overlook—and how to find a properly trained hormone specialist Why hormone health is central to brain protection, immune resilience, and emotional regulation   More from Dr. Berkson: Dr. Berkson is the author of numerous books including Hormone Deception, Safe Hormones, Smart Women, and Sexy Brain. She holds patents in bioidentical hormone therapy, has collaborated on research in estrogen receptor science, and consults internationally on nutrition for hormone-driven cancers, inflammatory bowel disease, renal disorders, and more.   She teaches continuing education for medical professionals and is the founder of multiple educational platforms for both clinicians and the public.   Resources Mentioned:   Six-Week Foundations of Healing Course:  https://www.nutritionaltherapy.com/foundations Website: www.drlindseyberkson.com Memberships: drlindseyberkson.com/membership Substack: drlindseyberkson.substack.com Everything Hormones CME Course: drlindseyberkson.com/everythinghormones Vilified to Vindicated Course (V2V): drlindseyberkson.com/v2v Nutritional Medicine by Dr. Alan Gaby: https://doctorgaby.com   Looking for personalized support?

My guest is Dr. Nirao Shah, MD, PhD, a professor of psychiatry, behavioral sciences and neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We discuss how the brains of males and females differ and how those differences arise from different genes and hormones during fetal development, in childhood and adulthood. We discuss what drives male- versus female-specific behaviors and how hormonal fluctuations across the lifespan, including puberty, the menstrual cycle, menopause and aging – affect behavior, cognition and health. Additionally, we discuss how biology relates to gender identity and the impact of hormone therapies on brain circuits that regulate mating, parenting and social bonding.

I finally get to dive deep with the queen of hormones herself, Dr. Carrie Jones! We're breaking down estrogen dominance, estrogen detoxification and what all this really means for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, or recovering from hormone-driven cancers. If you've ever stared at your Dutch test results like they're written in another language or questioned whether your hormone therapy is safe, this is the episode you need in your life. Carrie explains how estrogen is processed in the body, why detoxification matters for symptoms and long-term health (spoiler: it's about way more than just estrogen), and why you don't need to fear hormone therapy, even with a cancer history. Carrie then unpacks the difference between estrogen dominance and bad detox pathways, how to test and interpret your results, the exact nutrients and supplements to help your system handle hormones like a pro, and why constipation is basically your mortal enemy when it comes to hormone health. We bust the myths on “bioidentical” versus synthetic hormones, discuss the hot debate on estradiol vs. estriol, and share real solutions if you're tired of bloat, moodiness, or stubborn pounds.

We've had it wrong! You're not really bloated!!   My guest explains what ‘bloated' is … and isn't… How your hormones and gut interface happen and why adding protein might NOT be the thing you need to do right now if you're not really bloated.   My Guest:  Shefaly Ravula, PA-C, IFMCP is the visionary founder of Precision Gut Health, a virtual telehealth practice on a mission to unlock the secrets of gut health, nutrition and longevity. At the heart of her practice lies a powerful fusion of functional medicine, culinary nutrition, and a profound commitment to digestive and metabolic health optimization. Using a deeply individualized approach, she is dedicated to guiding patients towards a future where gut health and longevity are intricately entwined—and where vibrant health is not just a destination but a lifelong journey.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:06:57] What is the difference between bloating and distention? [00:20:10] Why stomach acid matters but also why it makes me nervous, as a practitioner? [00:14:44] What is the purpose of an elimination diet and when is it misused or misunderstood?  [00:28:03] In terms of hormones, how important is gut health?  [00:27:40] Chicken or Egg type of question: Do hormones changing influence gut health or does gut health changing influence hormones? [00:30:17] In terms of gut health and hormones, how important is protein?    Bloating vs. Distention? Bloating is a sensation, often tied to hormonal changes, water retention, or constipation. Distension is visible abdominal swelling, often worsening throughout the day.   What is Gut Health? Optimal functioning of your entire digestive system, which includes not just your intestines but your stomach acid, enzymes, gallbladder, and liver   Fix Your Gut Health, Maybe You're Not Really Bloated   Stomach Acid: Essential to digestion. Without enough acid, food isn't properly broken down, which can lead to bloating, distension, and other digestive problems.   Hormones: Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can slow down digestion. Estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and DHEA affect gut motility, inflammation, and the body's ability to detoxify through the digestive tract   Protein: With ongoing gut issues, trying to hit high protein goals can add stress to an already compromised digestive system. Timing is key — healing the gut first, then optimizing protein intake for metabolic and hormonal benefits.   What is the Elimination Diet? Helps identify food sensitivities or reduce inflammation.  Designed to be short-term and therapeutic — not permanent. Elimination diets are often misused. Done wrong, they lead to excessive restriction and fear of reintroduction.   Connect with Shefaly: Website - Precision Gut Health Facebook - Precision Gut Health Instagram - @precisionguthealth TikTok - @precisionguthealth   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - 5 Reasons You're Not Losing Weight or Gaining Muscle After 50 Next Episode - 5 Things I Would Do If I Were Tired All the Time  More Like This – Why Am I Bloated?

Meet Keri Croft, an infertility, child loss and surrogacy advocate who went through 16 years of infertility. On today's ep, Keri tells Ali all about her family building journey, which includes having her son, and also the devastating loss of her first girl, Angel, who was missing part of her cerebellum. "It was a horrible, horrible decision to have to make, and I wouldn't wish it on anybody," Keri says of undergoing a TFMR (Termination for Medical Reasons). Keri talks about how a balanced translocation affected their fertility journey, and also how she navigated IUI and IVF. "I tried everything. And of course that takes a toll on your marriage. It was an absolute clusterfuck," she says. Keri also shares how she lost two other girls, Hope and Jade, how she and her husband decided to pursue surrogacy, and launching her workshop, Find Your Dream Surrogate. "After years of fertility treatments, loss, and heartbreak, I eventually had my daughter via a surrogate — a journey I navigated completely independently, without an agency," Keri says. "It was beautiful and brutal and eye-opening in ways I never expected. When it was all said and done, I kept thinking: Why the hell isn't there a better roadmap for this? So I built one."For more, go to www.kericroft.comFollow on IG: @thekericroftshowTOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Pregnancy; TFMR; trying to conceive; pregnancy loss; baby loss; IVF; IUI; balanced translocation; surrogacy; ART; EPISODE SPONSORS: BEAUTIFUL BIRD AND WORK OF ARTAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe latest book in the Work of ART series, “Beautiful Bird” tells the story of three parents, one incredible boy and a family built with love—and a little bit of science.Pre-orders are available now!

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode my guest is Dr. Robert Sapolsky, PhD, a professor of biology, neurology and neurological sciences at Stanford University.   We discuss different types of stress and how our perception of stress as harmful or beneficial largely depends on context. He also explains how testosterone amplifies pre-existing behaviors and tendencies, and he highlights the crucial role of estrogen in supporting brain and body health. We also discuss daily cognitive practices for stress mitigation and how modern life, influenced by social media and complex social hierarchies, shapes our responses to stress.
