Can HRT Prevent Cancer? Hormone Replacement Therapy with Carolyn Zaumeyer - E83

from Home of Healthspan · host Andrew McConnell

Millions worry about declining energy, fading focus, and the looming risk of age-related diseases - especially cancer - as the years go by. For decades, the belief that hormone therapy could actually increase cancer risk has kept people fearful and searching for answers, even as they suffer through preventable symptoms.But what if that old advice was wrong? Unpacking the latest research and firsthand clinical experience, this episode explores whether hormone therapy can actually protect your health and even reduce the risk of major diseases like breast and prostate cancer, all through the perspective of a true pioneer who’s challenging everything we thought we knew.With over 30 years of expertise in women’s health, Carolyn Zaumeyer, Nurse Practitioner and founder of LowTE Florida, is a nationally recognized leader in the field of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).

You don't feel like working out, you know, you just don't feel good. And so you kind of just retreat a little bit.” - Carolyn ZaumeyerIn this episode you will learn: Why bioidentical hormones differ from synthetic options, and how they're used for health and aging.
