Bioidentische Hormone: Sollte man sie einnehmen? Mit Prof. Dr. Petra Stute #205

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy: Hype, Risk, or Real Opportunity for Menopausal Women? In this episode of HEALTHWISE, Elisabeth Seidel speaks with Prof. Dr. Petra Stute about one of the most discussed topics in women's health: hormone replacement therapy and bioidentical hormones. 🔬 What does "bioidentical" actually mean? Is progesterone always better than synthetic progestins? What role do estradiol, breast cancer risk, method of administration, and duration of therapy play? And when is hormone therapy even advisable according to guidelines? Prof. Dr. Petra Stute provides a nuanced explanation of why hormone therapy should be neither demonized nor downplayed. She discusses the so-called "favorable window" of opportunity, menopause as a hormonal and neurological transition, metabolic changes, sleep, stress, and why diagnostics are so often misunderstood. What to expect in this episode: 🧠 Learn why menopause affects not only hormones, but also the brain, metabolism, and quality of life. 🌡️ Understand how hot flashes develop and why modern research is enabling new approaches. ⚖️ Learn why hormone therapy should always be considered individually – instead of a blanket "for" or "against." 🔬 Discover what bioidentical hormones really are and why "bioidentical" doesn't automatically mean "risk-free." 💤 Discover why progesterone can promote sleep for some women – and why not every woman tolerates it equally well. 🩸 Understand when lab tests can be useful and why blood analysis is currently considered the gold standard for sex hormones. 🏋️‍♀️ Learn why nutrition, strength training, sleep, and stress management remain the foundation for a healthy transition. 💡 Learn why women in menopause need more evidence-based information, better care, and fewer taboos.
