Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 117 ratings
  • Prone to circle logic and contradictions. Episode 147 was full of them.

    Episode 169 included pre-interview chit-chat, including some private comments made by the guest that she said would be edited out. Completely unprofessional.

  • Episodes on questions about HRT

    Well, I appreciate this free podcast, Tara

    seems very knowledge… it seems as though this is just a promotion for her course. That may be a fantastic course, but it felt like no questions were truly answered. The listener is just being enticed to buy the course to answer the questions. This is my first listen will still go into this Podcast more to see if I can learn however, this particular episode just feels like a sales episode.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

169: PART 1: Dr Lindsey Berkson: The Truth About HRT & Breast Cancer, Bi-Est Vs. Estradiol, Vaginal Vs. Topical Vs. Oral Progesterone, Mammograms, & SO Much More.
Q: Does estrogen cause breast cancer?
No. The guest explains that large-scale analyses and decades of studies have shown that estrogen does not cause breast cancer and, in fact, can be protective or reduce mortality in some contexts when women's health is properly managed and hormones are individualized.
170: PART 2: Dr Lindsey Berkson: The Truth About HRT & Breast Cancer, Bi-Est Vs. Estradiol, Vaginal Vs. Topical Vs. Oral Progesterone, Mammograms, & SO Much More.
Q: What are your thoughts on mammograms and breast cancer screening in light of personal experiences with breast cancer?
Mammograms are not perfect and can miss some cancers; a combination of imaging modalities and self-exams is advised, with a focus on personal risk and alternatives when appropriate.
170: PART 2: Dr Lindsey Berkson: The Truth About HRT & Breast Cancer, Bi-Est Vs. Estradiol, Vaginal Vs. Topical Vs. Oral Progesterone, Mammograms, & SO Much More.
Q: Should we talk about estrogen therapy like bi-est and estriol in relation to breast cancer risk?
Yes, the discussion emphasizes that estriol can be protective and that estradiol and other estrogens do not inherently cause breast cancer when used appropriately; the take-home is individualized hormone management informed by science.
162: Decades of Constipation, 6 Weeks Without Pooping and a Belly Like She'd Swallowed an Elephant To Daily Poops & Zero Bloat - Wendy's Story
