Hormones, Specifically Women's Hormones w/ Dr. Gordon Gunn

Dr. Gordon Gunn joins Todd for this week’s Health is a Skill podcast to talk all things hormones, specifically women’s hormones. There are millions of hormones in our bodies, and they all perform different functions to regulate our emotions, body composition, and sex drive, but postmenopausal women may be the most difficult to treat demographic when it comes to hormone regulation. Dr. Gunn has been practicing medicine for 50 years now, and is considered an expert when it comes to hormone replacement therapy, specifically in postmenopausal women. During their conversation Todd and Dr. Gunn cover the history of menopause in the healthcare system, the botched 2002 study that led to our tainted view on using estrogen to treat postmenopausal women, and the benefits of hormone replacement therapy. No matter which demographic you fall into, we can all benefit from learning more about hormone replacement therapy and incorporating it into our health toolkit. Learn more about Dr. Gunn and his practice on his website: https://gordongunnmd.com/ Get access to Todd's free health resource: https://podtodd.com   Learn more about Stark at: https://www.stark.health  CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction and Importance of Estrogen08:40 The History of Hormone Replacement Therapy19:50 The Flawed Study and Misconceptions27:32 Barriers to Hormone Replacement Therapy and the Need for Education Your health is a skill you can build.
