Today I’m examining the debate surrounding progesterone cream and its effectiveness in hormone replacement therapy. I’ll challenge popular misconceptions and fearmongering about its inability to protect the uterine lining by citing scientific studies and listening to expert opinions. Sharing personal stories and clinical experiences, you’ll hear a balanced perspective on progesterone cream's role in treating menopause symptoms and fostering hormonal balance. Let’s explore this controversial topic and shed light on the science and stories behind this useful cream.

In this episode:

• How progesterone cream's effectiveness in hormone replacement therapy sparks debate among practitioners.
• Why blood serum levels may not accurately indicate progesterone's protective effects on the endometrium.
• How saliva and capillary blood spot testing might better reflect tissue levels of progesterone.
• How topical progesterone differs from oral progesterone in terms of metabolite production and neurosteroid sensitivity.
• Why individual responses to progesterone cream can vary.
• How misinformation about progesterone cream can negatively impact women's health choices.
• Why more research on bioidentical hormones and hormone testing methods is necessary for informed decisions.
• How progesterone cream's natural-like processing aligns with the body's own hormone management.
• Why some women may need to cycle their progesterone use for optimal effectiveness.
• Testimonials from renowned medical professionals that support the use of progesterone cream.
• Why open discussion and sharing of clinical experiences can enrich the understanding of HRT practices.
• How progesterone cream has been used safely in various HRT protocols without increasing uterine cancer risk.
• Why the lack of comprehensive studies necessitates reliance on clinical wisdom for HRT recommendations.

Listen to the full episode here; https://karenmartel.com/end-suffering-transform-your-life-with-byron-katie/ In 1986, at the bottom of a ten-year spiral into depression, rage, and self-loathing, Byron Katie woke up one morning to a state of constant joy that has never left her. She realized that when she believed her stressful thoughts, she suffered, but that when she questioned them, she didn't suffer, and that this is true for every human being. Her simple yet powerful process of inquiry is called The Work. Eckhart Tolle says, "Byron Katie's Work is a great blessing for our planet." Time magazine calls Katie "a spiritual innovator for the new millennium." The Work consists of four questions and the turnarounds, which are a way of experiencing the opposite of what you believe. When you question a thought, you see around it to the choices beyond suffering. Katie has been bringing The Work to millions of people for more than thirty years. Her public events, weekend workshops, five-day intensives, nine-day School for The Work, and 28-day residential Turnaround House have brought freedom to people all over the world. Byron Katie's books include the bestselling Loving What Is, I Need Your Love—Is That True?, A Thousand Names for Joy, and A Mind at Home with Itself. For more information, visit www.thework.com.

Dr. Devaki Lindsey Berkson is a thought leader in functional medicine, with an emphasis on hormones, nutrition, digestion, and intimacy.

Berkson was a distinguished hormone scholar at a world-renowned estrogen think tank at Tulane University because she wrote one of the first breakthrough books on endocrine disruption).

Dr. Berkson has taught re-licensing seminars to professionals (MDs, pharmacists, chiropractors, NDs, acupuncturists, nutritionists) and formulated the first female nutraceutical line for physicians in the U.S. and now Biotic’s first female line (Receptor Detox, Hormone Balance & Protect).

Berkson is often a keynote at prestigious medical and pharmaceutical symposium.

Berkson is credited with the in-depth knowledge of Estrogen Vindication and has an eBook on Hormones for Breast Cancer Survivors at DrLindseyBerkson.com.

In this episode, we dive into the often misunderstood world of estrogen hormone replacement therapy with Dr. Berkson. We debunk myths, particularly those about estrogen's links to cancer and serotonin, and discuss the protective roles of hormones like progesterone and testosterone. We cover the evolution of hormone therapy, address individualized dosing, and explore how hormones interact with nutrition and lifestyle for optimal health.

In this episode:

• Estrogen myths that have been perpetuated by figures like Dr. Joseph Mercola.
• Why accurate, science-based information on natural hormone therapy is crucial for women's health.
• Addressing misconceptions about estrogen's link to cancer and serotonin.
• Why estrogen is not solely responsible for inducing cancer growth, contrary to popular belief.
• How progesterone and testosterone are often overlooked yet play protective roles in hormone balance.
• Why individualized hormone dosing is essential for optimal hormone therapy outcomes.
• How innovative uses of estrogen therapy can benefit breast cancer patients and overall health.
• Why understanding hormone receptors and metabolism is so important in HRT.
• How nutrition and lifestyle interplay with hormones to impact health.
• Why a one-size-fits-all approach to hormone dosing can potentially be harmful.
• The upcoming CME course on hormones that Dr. Berkson is involved with.
• Why collaboration with oncologists is important when administering estrogen to breast cancer patients.
• How estrogen supports metabolism and may reduce type 2 diabetes risk.
• Why high-dose oral progesterone can lead to issues like depression and breast tissue inflammation.
