A Hormone Balancing Approach to Wellness: Sex Hormones – 1st Leg of the Hormone Chair (Part 2)

Mynd Myself Community Podcast Season 1 Episode 5

Interview with: Dr. Victoria  J. Mondloch, MD, OB-GYN, Specialist in Family Medicine, Preventative Health & Wellness, and Regenerative Medicine; Author and Speaker

In this episode we explore: 

  • Why and how are sex hormones relevant to Menopause and Post-Menopause?
  • Is Menopause only about hot flashes and other ‘crazy’ symptoms?
    If I’m not having any of those symptoms, then why should I pay attention to my hormones?
  • Can’t I just ‘weather the storm’ and find out that ‘I made it through to the other side’? 
    What’s the worst thing that can happen?
  • “My mom didn’t have any trouble, so I won’t either.” Is that really true?
  • What are typical symptoms of women around age 50 with new onset menopause?  
  • Isn’t hormone replacement associated with breast cancer?  
  • Research from Europe and the US around the Safety Profile of taking hormone replacement in menopausal years (or at any time)
  • Some other diagnoses that are helped by bio-identical hormone replacement
  • My doctor told me it was only safe to take hormones for a few years and then I had to come off.  Is this true?
