PRESENTATION OUTLINE
MENOPAUSE?
ANDROPAUSE?
What is menopause?
The moment when a woman is 1 year past her last menstrual period. The average is 51.4 years although there is wide normal range from the 40's through the late 50's.
Everything before that moment is "perimenopause" and everything everything after is postmenopause. Ovarian function is very dynamic,changing every month as the number of eggs decreases related to each cycle.
Menopause refers mostly to loss of cyclic estrogen and progesterone production.
Andropause is no less real but more difficult to discern. The aging process begins in the 30's for women and men and continues to progressively decrease over time.

"I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK"
Options about hormone "therapy" vary widely. Its hard for physicians, lt alone patients to keep up with a world of ever-changing advice.
To add to the confusion, people (expert or not) have very passionate views on the issue. Views that are not necessarily supported by science.

MOTHER NATURE
SHE DOESN'T ALWAYS KNOW BEST
"Mother Nature know best"? Not so fast, the world, science and medicine have changed our narrative.
It used to be that we went through menopause at 50 or 51 in a world where our life expectance was 50-55. So the relative time i. The menopause transition was short. Now we live to 80 years or more so that its possible to spend half our lives in menopause. Not to mention the environmental toxins that decrease the action of hormones in our bodies. So we have a longer time of lower potency hormones--a recipe for disaster.

THYROID DISEASE
52 MILLION AMERICANS HAVE HYPOTHYROID SYMPTOMS
Thyroid disease is incredibly common in the US with over 50 million suffering the symptoms of thyroid disease.
The thyroid tends to under function with aging in some people (hypothyroid). The under function can show up as decreased production of the raw material thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) or inefficient conversion to the more active thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (free T3).
The function of the thyroid is to take iodine and the amino acid tyrosine and convert them into thyroid hormones (T4 and T3).
Less common is over-function of the thyroid (hyperthyroidism). Graves disease (an autoimmune disorder can cause hyperthyroidism.
The most common autoimmune disorder of the thyroid, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, usually results in under-function of the thyroid.
Our treatment includes thyroid optimization with iodine,selenium and thyroid hormone (usually desiccated thyroid with T4 and T3 and diet change. Nutritional therapy focuses on decreasing thyroid inflammation (eg reducing or avoiding gluten) and reducing goitrogenic foods (cruciferous vegetables, soy among others).
