I’m a male in my 30s (who loves Angie) and don’t know why I’m watching this, but it’s so fascinating!

I just found this video and I know my comments are late, but here I go. I am 66 years old, and started going through menopause at 50. Not ONE of my doctors spoke about this. So, I have been diagnosed as depressive, and an insomniac. I take a medication for depression, and one for ADHD. I also take THREE medications for insomnia. It’s too late for me to access these other options, but don’t be me. Do your own research, go well equipped with information when you see your doctor, DEMAND a conversation about this. Tell your friends, tell your daughters, it will make your life so much better.

I feel it's ironic that as young woman we are told about our period and reproduction. It's even taught in school. However, when it comes to another stage of life, the menopausal stage, nothing. My mother never even mentioned it. You see your doctor and he or she tells you it's normal and it's just part of getting older as a woman and maybe offer hormone therapy or tough it out. If you wait too long your OBYGN (or mine) doesn't recommend hormone therapy. And to your point, no bone density until it may be too late. That's just nuts. Medicine is all about $$$$ not about us. You have to be proactive to the point of being a nuisance. I never knew the health benefits of estrogen. So informative. Thank you so much. I'm definitely going to be watching Dr. Barbie Taylor!

OMG Angie!!! I can never EVER thank you enough for getting me educated and also introducing me to this amazing doctor and her channel! I have been in menopause for 15 years and NONE of my doctors have really given me tools to help me. This is such an important education. Bless your precious heart for sending this out today. I am in awe.

I’m 27 and watching this video. It’s never too early to learn about this information. Thank you for a great video!

I pride myself on being a well educated, well informed woman but apparently I have a way to go. Ive just begun on HRT at 51 as I decided after a 5 minute consult with my GP to treat the cause and not the symptoms. I had absolutely no idea about the bone density, heart health, dementia tie ins. So glad I chose the HRT route but feel i need to learn so much more so I can make the right choices going forward from here. Im off to check out Menopause Taylor! Thanks Angie!

All I have to say is WOW! I learned SO much from this video. No physician has EVER told me that Estrogen protects me from disease. I also said No to HRT because I was afraid of getting breast cancer. My gynecologist left it up to me to decide but now looking back, I made a very uninformed decision. I didn't know what I didn't know! Thank you Angie for having her on your channel. I feel so empowered.

This was my favorite video you have ever done, and I have watched every video you have done for years...probably since you first began here on you tube. I guess I am one of the lucky people because I went to work for a GYN when I was 22 years old and worked there for 18 years. He taught me so much and he was a huge advocate of HRT for many of the reasons that Dr Barbie talked about. So I knew the very minute I was experiencing menopause symptoms. I was 42 when my lab test proved it was time for HRT. I am 59 and I still take them. I went off for a year or so and just could not take all the symptoms I was going through. My GYN I go to is fine with me taking them and we did have a discussion on how long I could take them and I remember when she told me as long as I wanted to. But, there were several things talked about here I didn’t know, so I really enjoyed this topic and I am glad that I have been on HRT. Thanks so much for putting this out there because I think Dr Barbie will be getting a lot of new subscribers. Have a great week, xoxo

Home Run Angie....I've known about Menopause Taylor and listened to you but you managed to put it all together in a nice lil package. Thank you again for your dedication to your audience. xoxo

I've been on estradiol pellets for 25 years and would not think of stopping. Every 3 months insertion. I'm a Womens Health nurse practitioner and have been for 30 years. Saw so many women suffering from estrogen deficiency because they are not informed of the consequences of not. My mother is 82 and still on estrogen. I agree with Dr. Taylor fully.

I honestly learned more about menopause in 41 minutes of watching this video than I ever knew before. Thank you SO much! I am now extra motivated to follow Dr. Taylor and watch her channel to educate myself further. Thank you both!

Oh my gosh, I had a total hyst in my mid 30's, I am 64 now...I was on HRT for most of that time until the last 5 yrs, my doc said I didn't need anymore, so I just said oh, ok....this is eye opening!!!!

Was anyone else like me when they were peri menopausal? I took 5 pregnancy tests because i wasnt mentally prepared to accept that my menopause was starting , i didnt feel old enough. I've never had any children and it was a pivotal moment when my body told me you've missed your chance. Almost felt like mourning for the children i never had.

I learned more true information today, than the 7 years since my hysterectomy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My primary physician gives me a hard time about taking HRT. I tell her I leave that up to my gynecologist. I’m fortunate that she is very well informed and says I can take the HRT as long as I need for comfort. Personally I think obstetrics and gynecology should be separate fields. Women’s needs after child bearing are totally different and need to be addressed.

Dr. Taylor really explains everything completely in a way that is understandable to most people I think.

I had a complete hysterectomy with my ovaries removed also at the age of 36, they didn't put me on HRT because my Mom had breast cancer. I've had issues after issue.Twenty years later my last surgery was from developing bone loss and have a spinal fusion as within the past 6 I could hardly move around, bent over. Now I have metal starting from the back of my neck down to my rear. Just writing to save even one person to not go through what I've gone through. My doc and I will be talking about putting me on HRT, even if it is the lowest dose. I wouldn't of known any of this if I hadn't watched this.Thanks Angie as always, life changing. xoxo

This was a wonderful idea! We can never be too informed about our bodies. Thank you ladies 💜

This is one of the most important videos for women's health on the internet.

I watch Menopause Taylor’s channel and have gotten a ton of information from her. Thank you Angie for having her present this information in a different format. Great video.

Everything I didn’t know, that I needed to know and now know!! Thanks from the bottom of my heart for this video ❤️

Angie, This interview was phenomenal! What a wonderful collaboration. Thanks for making this possible- it was so informative ❤

Thank you for answering all the questions I never dared ask! Every single woman should see this amazing interview!

This was seriously so helpful. I can’t thank you enough.

I’ve been watching Dr. Barbie for over a year. I have learned so much from her videos. Thank you for having her on your channel to help other women.

Thank you Dr Taylor. Thank you Angie. There’s not enough information for us women about menopause and you guys covered so much in one video. 💖 💖

Thank you Angie, your analytical unbiased approach is much needed and appreciated. :)

Thanks so much for having Dr. Taylor! I have watched many of her videos but never had so many of my questions and concerns addressed in one video. I really appreciate this.

Thank you so very much for this information and introducing me to Dr.Taylor!

Wow! Thank you for bringing Dr. Taylor on your show! I heard so much I had never heard before. Thanks again Angie!

That was SO awesome! Thank you Dr. Taylor and Angie. I already bought her book and am off to start on her videos. Great job ladies!

This was amazing! Thanks so much for having Taylor on your channel.

Thank you Angie! I learn so much from you and at 34 years old I feel like this video has really changed my life

Thank you so much for introducing Dr. Taylor to us. I’m 55 and can relate to everything in this video!!💕

Thank you, Angie, for hosting Dr. Taylor! She is a fountain of information and gives it to you in a way you can understand! Great questions, too. I need to get her book.

Thank you, Angie, from the bottom of my heart, for introducing Dr. Taylor. You have no idea how helpful this and her other videos are for me. I love your channel, and you are my inspiration. Please keep up your amazing and generous work, and stay strong.

Oh my gosh this was so good thank you Angie and thank you Dr. Taylor❤️❤️❤️

Yay! Glad you two teamed up! It’s shocking how much life saving menopause info the average woman does not know!

OMG...I am SO SO glad you had this video! I feel as if a light has been clicked on for me (in the form of Dr. Taylor). I cannot thank you enough for having her on your channel and introducing me to her and her resources.

Thank you SO much for this!! I can't believe how much I've learned in just 40 minutes! This. Was. Awesome!

I follow both, and this video is a double dose of two favourite KZfaq ladies, yay! 🥳

This is so helpful, I can't even express how much this means to me. Thank you both so much. I've never heard or known 99% of this information, and I'm going through menopause right now. This is the first time I haven't felt alone. Thank you.

thank you so much for introducing me to this channel. I have watched many of her episodes so far. So great to "finally" get some great facts & advise about menopause. I have been looking & looking... Thanks again !!

Thank you, Angie. You have added a lot of great information from your channel. But right now I am sitting at my kitchen table laughing and weeping. This was really life-changing information. Keep up the great work! Love your content as always. I am going to schedule a consultation today!

So much great information here! So many answers to things I’ve been confused about. Thank you for this video

WOW! Angie that was such an informative and empowering video! I am in the thick of peri menopause and I learned so much, especially that everyone woman's journey through menopause is different! But we women can be pro active and education is power. Thank you so much for this collaboration...I feel empowered.

Well done Angie!! So great for you to include us in this hook up with the Doctor. You are both excellent educators and superb examples of empowering others through objective information. Of course you both have wonderfully charasmatic presentations too which are compelling. Keep up the good work. Hello from London : - )

So thankful for this episode. It gives me a springboard from which I can do more research to manage my own menopause. I have renewed hope that there are options! Thanks Angie for lifting women up!

Angie I learned so much, I have tears thank you so much for everything your doing to provide information to us.

Dr. Barbie Taylor is my favorite and I loved that you have her as a guest.

Hi Angie, Thank you so much for bringing Dr Taylor on your channel, what a precious resource for those of us going through this challenging time! I've learned so much and am going straight to my Doctor to talk about this again.

Thank you. I've watched Dr Taylor's videos, gone thru "the troubles" and needed this refresh & revue because nothing needs to be set in stone. We all have the power to change our approach to living our best lives.

Thanks so much for getting this info to us. Really helpful info that I never got from my US or European doctors. I didn’t know Dr Taylor, so thanks for the introduction - I have already signed up for a consultation.

I just love Dr Taylor! I recommend watching her videos in order - they are amazing. Angie, I applaud you for bringing her to your audience. There is so much misinformation out there - some of it cringe worthy - and I am so glad that you are bringing sound, scientific, unbiased information to your viewers/followers. Thank you!

This is by far my favorite video from you Angie; THANK you so much for doing this interview. So insightful...wow! Wish I would have had this 5 years ago. Hope it helps many!

Angie, thank you so much for this video! I’ve learned so much! I immediately sent this to my daughter and two of my close friends. Thanks for keeping us informed!

This is so timely for me. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful video! I really needed this. I am going through it for the last few years. I haven’t had a full nights sleep in years. Exhausted beyond belief. I’m going to see a doctor because of this video. You have done a great service to all your sisters on your channel ❤️

Sooo sooo helpful and empowering. I’m 44 and feel so behind the 8 ball on this subject. I’ve been experiencing some peri menopausal symptoms the last 6 months or so. I thought that being health conscious, working out, and eating healthy and clean was all I needed to do. This video opened my eyes to all the homework I should be doing. Thank you!

Wow, Thank you Angie for sharing Dr. Taylor's expertise! She broke it down which made a lot more sense of the broken pieces of HRT information I have acquired over the years.

I think this should be shared over and over again. I think the information just saved me. I’m 50 and going through the worst hot sweats every half hour can’t sleep suffering from every single thing you’re talking about, and had no one to talk to about it.

This was fantastic!!! My mom passed away almost 4 years ago, and before that I always thought when I get perimenopausal I’d be able to ask her questions (she was a nurse). Now I have you and the Dr!!! We all should talk about this A LOT more and to younger women. Thank you SO very much!!! ❤️💋

Thank you Angie for bring Dr. Taylor on your channel! This was fantastic! I will be subscribing to her channel.

OMG!!!! Thank you so much Angie! Dr. Taylor is so informative. This is my first time hearing her and I have already learned so much.

This has genuinely brought tears to my eyes- thank you for this knowledge and understanding - I am 48 and the periods have become more difficult and heavy but I realize now that I am going through the beginning of a transition and I feel empowered and prepared to find an endocrinologist and to speak to my gynecologist from a place of knowledge - thank you

Best video ever!!!! Thank you so much for this. It is a service to women and a great use of your platform and voice. Thanks to Dr Taylor as well. (PS. I will NEVER go of of HRT!!!)

Thank you so much ladies !!!!! Absolutely love love love Dr Taylor. She is the best 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💖💖💖💖💖💖. Thank you 💕

Angie, I'm only 41, and I had no idea about any of this, because I thought I wouldn't need to know any of this for at least another decade. THANK YOU for teaching me I was wrong about that, and helping me prepare for when my hormones start abandoning me!

Thank you so much for having Dr Taylor on your channel. This was so incredibly informative, and I’m well past menopause age, but I still learned tons of stuff. I think this was absolutely great and I’m going to forward it to many women I know who can benefit from watching this video. 😍👏

Love love love Dr. Taylor and Hot & Flashy! What a combo. Thank you for helping those of us pre, during, and post menopause! This information is so crucial and how frustrating that no doctors in my life (gyn, family, etc) mentions ANYTHING about how important estrogen is. And my gyn is my age and a female. SO THANK YOU! I'm on this now and taking my own health in my own hands because (sadly) no dr will do it for me!

This was awesome! Thank you Angie and Dr. Taylor! I started watching her videos and now I've gotten behind, so I'm going to catch up. 6 years post menopausal and am still having symptoms! Mainly sleep!

I am 44 and have been following your channel for 4 years. I have loved it and recommended it to friends because you are always so well informed in your videos and obviously very pleasant to watch too😊and i have learned tons from u on skin care and beauty...(being someone who had used make up maybe 10 times in my life up until 40)...today’s video has been - I think- the most important for me because I have learned so much significant info on such an important subject...that is not in my life yet...but will be knocking at my door soon...so thank you... I apologize for the long message, I thought u should know you are making a difference to someone else’s life..although a stranger.

Thank you so much ladies. I watch both of you and so excited that you did this video. When you don't have a lot of time to watch all the videos (and I will eventually) this videos wraps up a lot of questions as you have been told. The way things are today with going to the doctors is, if you can get in to see your doctor it is get in and get out. Only allowed two questions per visit. I get it but still very tough to swallow at times. People sharing their knowledge is usually only about asking for money and then I will give you the goods. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to go to specialist and so nice that you both take the time out of your busy days to help women. I am so appreciative of you both and will definitely forward this video on to all my lady friends and family. You have big hearts.

Heaven sent and eye opening. I appreciate this so much, Thank You!!

I started menopause at 48-49. At first I tried the estrogen patch & Progesterone pill, and it was okay. The best thing for me has been a compounded bioidentical cream with estrogen & testosterone. I have felt so much better on this combination cream. The added testosterone helps so much with energy & joint pain and it has made an incredible difference for me. I have the energy & motivation to exercise that I know I would not have without this treatment. I hope this helps many women. Thank you so much for this video.

Thank you for doing this Q&A with Dr Barbie! Love Dr. Barbie. I've watched her videos and read her book but it's still nice to have this concise refresher, plus it brings the subject forward for so many women who need to be pointed to the right educational resource!

Thank you for making this informative video! I have been on HRT for a year and a half and it has made a huge difference in how I feel.

Thank you for this! It's exactly the type of information I need at at exactly the right time. I'm 49 and I discovered you a few months ago because I was looking to get an under eye concealer for someone who has mature skin issues. Now after watching this video, I'll check out the good doctor and her menopause channel! I wholeheartedly agree that it's all about being FULLY INFORMED! 💜

Thank you sooo much for bringing this topic to your channel! I'm 51 and had the worst perimenopause symptoms for 5 years. I looked everywhere for information and it was so few and far between. And I find that gals my age don't really want to talk about it. I think it's important for women to know that they are normal and there is help!

Angie you are the BOMB! Many thanks to you for bringing "Menopause Barbie" on. So informative.

Thank you so much for this video with Dr. Barbie. She summarised so brilliantly at the end that few women have the information to hand at the time. Certainly in my case (at the end of my Menopause but still get hot flushes). She was erudite, knowledgeable and I've just subscribed to her channel.

This video has changed my life, no exaggeration. I needed to know about this. Thank you two so much! I bought Dr. Taylor's book, watched videos, went in to talk with my gynecologist who is brilliant, and she was very happy to help. But like many other said, I had information she didn't thanks to Dr. Taylor. Thank you Angie!

Angie thank you again ! What a great resource ! My doc forbade me from estrogen supplementation when I was in menopause and now at 63 , I have felt it's too late. And now this. I will go to her channel to learn more. All because of you. You are the best.

Thank you. Thank you so much. 💗👍🏼💗 Despite being a nurse, I have never heard or read any of the information discussed on this video!! This has been eye-opening! So grateful to be more educated now, but also a little annoyed that this isn’t more readily available from our health care providers! 😳

thank you so much for delving into this. you get into details that no one else does in one place.

AWESOME video! Thanks, ladies!! Erin xo

Loved this! Love Dr Taylor, I follow her KZfaq channel she's a treasure!

This was fantastic! I have her book and I am going through her videos. I know she wants you to watch them in order but I haven’t always done that. I have been very fortunate to have Dr’s who have listened and understood what was going on with my body. I have been on HRT since I was in my 50’s. One of my complaints was that it hurt when I walked and that problem was solved very quickly. I believe that Dr Taylor is doing such a great service to everyone who watches her videos with information that can be hard to find so thank you so much for having her on so she. Outdoor answer some questions. Thanks 🙏

Thank you Angie so much for this great information. I just had my hysterectomy a month ago and until after my surgery i was not aware of these hormonal issues. I am so relieved to know this information and so happy that I can still live a normal life with right guidance.

Hi Angie - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for having Dr. Taylor on - I LOVE HER!!! She is such an incredible resource for women and she is appreciated by SO many of us. I love how she provides the FACTS and straight information without any bias. As she says, she doesn't care how you manage your menopause, but she will assist you in managing it. I hope you will do follow-up videos with her as this is such a great service to women. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew about her when she was "Menopause Barbie"! She is the best teacher on the subject I have found. Very knowledgeable.

I’m seeing this a year later but am so excited to see you are also a fan of Barbie! I’ve recently started using BHRT and listening to Menopause Barbie and I am so grateful to her for all she shares. Wonderful interview you shared here!! Thank you 🙏🏼

Have been watching Menopause Taylor’s videos for awhile now and find everything extremely interesting. Thanks for this ‘consult’ Angie! It’s been very interesting.

Fascinating. With all of the changes going on in my body at 44, I’ve questioned if my body was crossing over to the rest of my life. I absolutely am, and I am absolutely not loving the majority of it. Thank you for this, Angie.

I love Menopause Taylor, she helped me make a decision on my path forward. My hot flashes and anxiety were making my life miserable but I was so afraid of taking hormones. She helped me work with my doctor to weigh out the benefits and risks and set up a plan to minimize the risks. THANKS Angie for this great video.

Angie, thank you so much for this video. I've been going through menopause for the last 4 years. I love Dr. Taylor I am going to subscribe to her channel. She is exactly what I needed.

I felt like this video gave me the permission and the knowledge to take better care of myself. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am reading the comments and crying. This discussion is amazing. Thanks to both of you!! ❤️💜💚💙💛

Best video ever. I was shocked when it ended as it whizzed by so quickly.

What a wealth of information!!!! Thank you so very much for having Dr. Taylor on your channel Angie. So many questions about menopausal symptoms answered. I thought I had to suffer with sleeplessness & hot flashes/night sweats forever. I'm going to talk to my obgyn.

Dr. Barbie is the best. Thanks for having her on your channel today.

Holy cow...learned so much today!! Thanks so much for doing this video Angie and Dr. Barbie!
