Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Progesterone After Menopause: How to Take It, and If You Even Need It - Zora Benhamou
Q: If I don't have a uterus, do I still need progesterone?
In most cases, without a uterus, progesterone is not required to protect the uterine lining, but decisions should be personalized based on symptoms, labs, and medical history; always consult with a physician to decide the best plan.
Progesterone After Menopause: How to Take It, and If You Even Need It - Zora Benhamou
Q: What are the real risks of breast cancer and heart issues when using progesterone or estrogen therapies?
The data historically point to synthetic progestins increasing certain risks, while body-identical progesterone and transdermal or non-oral estrogen may have a different risk profile; it's important to differentiate between progestins and progesterone and discuss delivery methods with a clinician.
Progesterone After Menopause: How to Take It, and If You Even Need It - Zora Benhamou
Q: Progesterone cycling, is it best to do 14 days on and 14 days off, or use it every day when postmenopausal?
Cycling for 12–14 days each month is common, but if you are postmenopausal you can still cycle or opt for daily use depending on doctor guidance; consistency is key and you should tailor the plan to your uterus health and doctor's recommendations.
Can A Test Predict Menopause? How To Track Hormones In Perimenopause - Dr. Jessica Shepherd
Q: How do these devices differ and what should a user expect in terms accuracy?
Devices vary; some measure hormones via urine and others via temperature data or other biomarkers. They are not all the same in accuracy or in how they track fluctuations, and clinicians consider the whole clinical picture when interpreting results.
Can A Test Predict Menopause? How To Track Hormones In Perimenopause - Dr. Jessica Shepherd
Q: How should we think about testing labs during perimenopause?
Labs can be useful as a baseline and for tracking trends over time; not every situation requires daily testing, but selective labs can support preventive health and broader health management beyond just fertility.
