678. Low Hormones and Cancer: What You’re Not Being Told

What if the hormone most women are never offered is one of the most important for your brain, your mood, and your long-term health?
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Terri DeNeui, a board-certified nurse practitioner, founder of EVEXIAS Health Solutions, and author of Hormone Havoc, to unpack why testosterone isn't just a "dude hormone."
We talk about how testosterone can start declining as early as your 30s, its connection to depression and anxiety, and why women who've had a hysterectomy are rarely told they may need it replaced. We also get into why "normal" testosterone labs aren't the same as optimal, why DHEA alone usually can't fill the gap, and what the research says about testosterone, estrogen, and breast health, including what the Women's Health Initiative actually found. Dr. Terri also breaks down the testosterone and prostate cancer myth for the guys, and why low testosterone may be behind that grumpy, irritable husband.
What you'll learn:
Why testosterone isn't just a male hormone, and what it does for your brain, mood, and body
How testosterone can start declining in your 30s, and how birth control pills may affect it
Why women who've had a hysterectomy may need more than estrogen replacement
Why DHEA alone usually isn't enough to replace low testosterone

What the research says about testosterone, estrogen, and breast health
How synthetic progestins differ from bioidentical progesterone in the Women's Health Initiative findings

Tune in to learn why testosterone deserves a place in the conversation about your hormones, no matter your age.
