Women's Hormones with Dr. Mila McManus

What this episode covers

As women age, it is important to keep estrogen and progesterone in balance! These hormones are produced during the menstrual cycle, however the amount of progesterone a woman needs as she ages increases, while the amount our bodies produce decreases. This causes estrogen dominance and can produce a wide variety of symptoms such as anxiety, depression, migraines and insomnia. Most physicians will prescribe anti-depressants to treat such symptoms. However, simply adding bio-identical progesterone can reduce these symptoms with bonus effects of regulating periods and easing pre-menstrual symptoms. Another cause of estrogen dominance are xeno-estrogens, which are toxins that act as endocrine disruptors. Many are petrochemical products found in lotions, soaps, etc. and they have similar negative effects on our body and energy levels. Join Dr. Hotze and his special guest Dr. Mila McManus today as they discuss the many benefits of bio-identical Progesterone. Dr. McManus is the founder and owner of The Woodlands Institute of Health and Wellness and has earned several “Top Doctor” awards over the past decade.
