Today Dr. Killen and I discuss hormone optimization and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women. She explains that HRT can start in perimenopause, around the age of 35-40, and involves replacing hormones like progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen to maintain optimal levels. She emphasizes the importance of personalized dosing and using bioidentical hormones rather than synthetic versions. Dr. Killen also highlights the benefits of HRT, including improved libido, motivation, skin health, fat burning, and muscle building. She recommends regular hormone testing and discusses the different types of hormone administration, such as creams and injections. Additionally, she addresses the issue of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and the importance of early detection and treatment. In this conversation, Dr. Killen and Kayla Barnes discuss various topics related to women's health, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), longevity supplements, sexual health, and skin health. They also touch on the importance of vitamin D and sun exposure, as well as the potential benefits of cold plunging.
