The Ray Peat ideas make a lot of sense to me, some are hard for me to agree with, but the Estrogen/Progesterone ideas seem so straight forward, but my wife went through early menopause according to multiple doctors, naturepaths, is supposedly not producing any hormones so they put her on estrogen/progesterone. (They are bio identical she says).
As she constantly adjusts the amounts to dial it in to maximum benefit, she leans toward lower estrogen as I always mention the things I read and hear from Haidut on Danny Roddy podcasts.
Well, she ran out of estrogen, so I asked her to try just the progesterone until she gets the Estrogen and IMMEDIATELY the vaginal dryness comes back.
Also, estrogen gets rid of the hot flashes.
Searching the forum, no one has a solution for vaginal dryness. Suppository's might help some a little.
So here is something hard to ponder, If estrogen is so bad, how come it immediately helps with a specific health issue?
This issue isn't like baldness that nothing fixes, this is an issue that nothing else seems to fix.
