What is meant by the term "Bi-Est?" Why would a woman in menopause want to use the weakest estrogen to treat her symptoms?
Should you take HRT for menopause? If that question feels impossible to answer, I'm here to help. My digital course, The Menopause Solution, guides you through Searches, Stories, and Studies to help you make your HRT decision.

Lack of estrogen was the root cause of all my health issues, and I had to figure that out myself. Not even my gynecologist put the pieces together when I mentioned a visit to the urologist about bladder frequency issues, or the visit to the ophthalmologist who I went to about stabbing pain in my eyes (Note: bladder and eyes were deemed to be in perfect health). None of them thought to themselves, perhaps this is linked to menopause. It's not some new discovery. Even Plato mentioned the change in his writings. So why is it still so mysterious and under studied?? If I were a physician and a woman over 35 came to me with symptoms (I began hot flashing at 39), I would give her the list of 100 menopause symptoms and ask her to identify how many she was experiencing. Then, I would test her hormones, which my gyno didn't do when I insisted on HRT, despite me asking her to - I changed gynos. List of my symptoms: Hair loss, brain fog, eye pain, dry mouth, frozen shoulder, joint pain, bladder urgency, unexplained weight gain around the middle, extreme fatigue, broken sleep, numbness in extremities (not a diabetic - I've been tested), stabbing foot pain for no reason. If any man were experiencing these symptoms all at once, it would be considered a medical emergency. But we women have been suffering for as long as humans have been living beyond 40-years-old. We're told to live with it because it's natural and called "whiny women." Note: the range for "normal" levels in blood work can mislead people into thinking it's not menopause. Go with the symptoms. Once I began HRT, many of these issues completely reversed or improved quite a bit.

Thank you for doing this video on Bi-Est and presenting excellent information. I have been using that in troche form, which also includes Progesterone and Testosterone, with good success for nearly 16 years. I also supplement with an oral DHEA tablet. When I first entered menopause, I was told that the estriol component was protective against breast cancer, and since it is compounded, the dose is individualized to my needs. It has been effective in eliminating my symptoms, and at 70 years old, my bone health is in normal range and my metabolic markers for insulin resistance show I am at very low risk. I do not know why more practitioners do not recommend it, except that I assume the pharmaceutical industry has a big problem with the fact that it is a compounded medication that also contains estriol in the formulation. Incidentally, I originally tried Bi-Est cream when I first entered menopause, but I did not seem to absorb it well, so I switched to a troche and got good results.

watched Steve's estriol video, hit close. struggled with menopause, health was a maze. Aspect Health, a guiding light. understanding hormones, estradiol's impact, crucial. estriol studies intrigued me, especially the breast cancer link. biest concept, an interesting twist. FDA approval gaps, compounding pharmacies step in. safety profile matters, but not universally embraced. Steve's insights, valuable. link to find a qualified provider, appreciated. keep the knowledge flowing! 🌼

I started back on HRT at 69 bc I still have hot flashes & never got my energy back. I never should have stopped bc I was aware of the great benefits back then.

it would be great to find out if estriol also has protective qualities for endometrial Ca. Thank you for your excellent and informative videos!

@SimpleHormones 5 ай бұрын

@casapilanola I'm pretty sure estriol has the same tendency to increase the growth of the endometrium that estradiol has. Progesterone is the hormone that offers endometrial protection.

Yes. Biest can be used vaginally. Sometimes a higher proportion of estriol may be effective. I may do another video about vaginal estriol and maybe even another one about estriol for skin issues.

Avoid any oral estrogen in order to bypass the liver. You need transdermal creams, patch, gel

@@sweetpeace5 You should watch more of the Simple Hormones videos. He has a video that addresses studies that show that transdermal forms of estrogen are not as effective in providing protection against heart disease, Osteoporosis or Alzheimer’s, and also, that oral forms of estrogen do not significantly increase breast cancer risk.

I’m always amused by make ‘experts’ on menopause ( just like female ‘experts’ on erectile dysfunction 😅). I know you mean well, and most likely genuinely strive to help women, but you will never know from direct experience as the real experts on female body ( = women ), and I can tell you, things aren’t as clear cut as medical books or research studies say, because western medicine likes to quantify, rationalize and box everything and women aren’t that.😂 Perhaps one day, men realize the best way to support women is to create and protect stress free, natural world in which women can blossom 🌸
