Here's your host, doctor Eldred Tables.
15
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:07.719
Hello, good morning and happy Wednesday to everyone. I'm here
16
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.959
in not hot Atlanta, but cold Atlanta. I think it
17
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:15.200
was like thirty four degrees last night, so I'm trying
18
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:17.920
to stay warm, and you know, we're not used to
19
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:21.480
this this kind of weather down here. And we have
20
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:24.239
a guest today who's in Louisiana. She's freezing too, and
21
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:27.640
also Rebel she's in Louisiana's cold all over, but it's
22
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:31.200
supposed to start warming up here soon. Well, today we're
23
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.359
going to talk about is maybe cold here, but we're
24
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.159
going to talk about a hot topic. And the hot
25
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:40.799
topic is that the FDA removed the black box label
26
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:45.519
from Harmon Replacement. Now I have a special guest here.
27
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.000
Her name is Mandy Romero, doctor Mandy Romero. She's a
28
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.120
pharmacist that I've known for over twenty years and we've
29
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:57.959
been fighting this Harmon replacement battle together on stage and
30
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:01.799
at conferences. And since I started this Ageles Blueprint, we
31
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.760
kind of reconnected because I went through a lag here
32
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.159
where we didn't do with COVID and all that that stuff.
33
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.400
I didn't do a lot of speaking and Gage I
34
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:12.919
didn't do any and so this age was Blueprint kind
35
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.319
of got me reapped back up again, and she actually
36
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.599
contacted me and has been following me on my age
37
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:25.360
was Blueprint school platform, and we did a previous UH
38
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.479
podcast together, and so I invited her back because when
39
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:31.080
you talk about the FDA and harmone replacement, we have
40
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:34.919
to put in compounding pharmacies, because compounding pharmacies have been
41
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:39.080
fighting this battle even more than I have because Big
42
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:42.039
Farmer is always trying to shut them down. So, uh,
43
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.159
let's welcome Mandy Ramara and then we're going to discuss
44
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:48.919
this hot topic in this cold environment. How are you doing, Mandy,
45
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:52.319
doctor Romero, let me let me give you your proper introduction.
46
00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:53.439
How are you doing?
47
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.919
Uh, doctor Romeria?
48
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:02.360
Why don't such a hot talk? And I think both
49
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:05.439
of us have you know, our viewpoints, but they definitely
50
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:08.400
merged together. So I'm excited to.
51
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.520
Be here exactly. So why don't you tell yourself and
52
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:13.120
what you do?
53
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:18.039
Okay? So I'm a clinical pharmacist. I used to work large.
54
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:18.879
What's going on?
55
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:20.840
It's about adactic time.
56
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.840
Yeah, okay, we'll try and I'll try and give it time.
57
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:24.680
Okay.
58
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:29.719
So space, remember, let's start from the beginning. Let's tell
59
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:33.199
us about what you do and how you kind of
60
00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:34.120
got to this point.
61
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:38.719
Okay. So I started off as a compounding pharmacist twenty
62
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:43.280
six years ago, and so I learned how to make
63
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:47.840
compounded HRT and then my boss at the time said,
64
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:51.159
let's get this going. Let's start learning. I started learning
65
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:53.479
before the WHI trial came out, and so I was
66
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:55.840
learning all the good stuff and then two thousand and
67
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:58.840
two comes and that changes everything. But but but I
68
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.800
regardless of that. At the time, I was learning about
69
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.680
HRT and I was marketing to physitions, educating them what
70
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:11.000
I learned, and then seeing patients in private consultation. But
71
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:15.199
in twenty thirteen I got very sick and so I
72
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:18.879
had to quit working there. So my health journey has
73
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:22.480
taken me down the road of a hysterectomy, and so
74
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:24.839
then I had to go about figuring out what am
75
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.720
I going to do about my own hormones. But before that,
76
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.480
I was helping women with hormones, and you know, it
77
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.639
has evolved into functional medicine, helping people with metabolic health,
78
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:40.600
those kind of things, so very preventative and wellness.
79
00:04:41.480 --> 00:04:46.000
So you know, the thing is that the FDA changed
80
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:49.160
this black box warning now you know the way I
81
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:51.560
see it, it has good things and it has bad
82
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:54.000
you know, I think one is going to start the
83
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.800
conversation again about biodynical hormones. And I think that's so
84
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:02.199
important because, as you know and I know, women are
85
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:07.240
suffering due to the lack of knowledge from actually from
86
00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:13.240
doctors not having the knowledge, and from just educational institutions.
87
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:17.360
We talked about the North American menopause society given bad information,
88
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:21.000
and so I'm worried that this that lifting this band
89
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:25.000
is going to allow the people who are distributing bad
90
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:27.759
information to do it more freely. And so that's why
91
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:30.439
I wanted to do this podcast, because I think it's
92
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:36.079
important for women to understand hardmones and how they work
93
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:39.680
and what to avoid and what to you know, incorporate.
94
00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:43.680
So this podcast is trying to educate women to be
95
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:47.839
empowered to make good decisions for themselves because I feel
96
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.279
like a flood of information may start coming out now
97
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:54.240
that this band has been lifted. How do you see it?
98
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:57.839
I totally agree with you, and we've been battling this
99
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.560
a long time, doctor Taylor. I mean it's all the time,
100
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:04.319
and especially more so as a pharmacist because I can't
101
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.920
write a prescription, so I have the knowledge that i've
102
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:11.279
learned that is science, and I'm trying to get the
103
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:14.279
doctor to say, hey, let me collaborate with you and
104
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.279
this is what I'm recommending for the patient. And it's
105
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:20.399
so frustrating. But now I think this opens the door
106
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.000
for more discussion. But if you have doctors that are
107
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:26.800
just going to start writing scripts and have no education.
108
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.879
That's going to be a problem, especially with the generic
109
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:32.160
lift of that.
110
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:35.079
Yeah, and we're going to get to that. So see,
111
00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:38.000
let's you know, I always I like to use lads
112
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:40.560
because it kind of keeps me on schedule. So can
113
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:44.240
you pull up the first land level? Oh no, okay, no,
114
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:47.120
that's the last lad. Let let's go to the first one.
115
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:49.000
I can do it here, So we're going to get
116
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:52.000
the perimra. But yeah, so this is the this is
117
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:55.079
the big shift, you know, rethinking hormon therapy, a new
118
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.839
error for precision and education. So this is the headline
119
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.639
that was all over the New a couple of days ago.
120
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:05.959
You know, Robert Kennedy, he's a little bit more holistic minded,
121
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:08.560
and he has good intentions, and it's just like with everything,
122
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:12.040
everybody always has good intentions, but sometimes you get you know,
123
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:17.079
those unexpected consequences or whatever, that collateral damage. So again,
124
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.079
I do think this is good because people are starting
125
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:22.800
to talk about it, and you know, I actually got
126
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:25.199
I actually started this podcast and all this stuff because
127
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:29.680
there's so much misinformation, you know, out there on the
128
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:33.399
Internet and all these places, and so I just want
129
00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:36.399
to make sure that everybody is equipped with good information
130
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:40.160
so that they can you know, they can navigate all
131
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:42.120
this stuff so they can hear what we're saying and
132
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:44.879
compare it to you know, what's being said, and they
133
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:48.240
can make I feel like patients are smart enough to
134
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:51.439
know what's right and what's wrong, especially women, because women
135
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:55.120
have intuition, and intuition can be very powerful if women
136
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.000
will a bad by their intuition, but a lot of
137
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.240
times they get confused by this information and go against
138
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:04.240
what they feel it is actually right for them.
139
00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:08.959
Totally agree with that. Women really have it in them
140
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.279
to take it to the next level. And I think
141
00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:15.439
if we get out there and educate more from the
142
00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:19.600
women's perspective, especially with what's going on right now.
143
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:23.600
Yeah, so you know, so I put in there. What changed? Okay,
144
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:27.040
they removed the black box, but look what didn't change.
145
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:31.079
There was no direction on how to measure and balance hormones,
146
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:34.720
you know, so that did not change, and now there's
147
00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:38.399
continued guessing your trial and error and see. Yeah, so
148
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:38.960
go ahead.
149
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:42.919
So what I was going to say is is, so,
150
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:44.960
so what do we do business as usual?
151
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:45.759
Yeah?
152
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:52.000
That takes some steps to educate people so that they
153
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:53.559
know how to do it.
154
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:57.919
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the problem. The problem has never
155
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:01.639
been the hormones harmones intent. I mean, you know, women
156
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.480
and men, they make that. You've been exposed to estrogen
157
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:08.840
and progesterone your whole life. Okay, so estrogen and progesterone
158
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.679
are not the problem. The problem is the balance of
159
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.200
estrogen and progesterone. Is measuring the estrogen and progesterone correctly
160
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:19.159
so that you can restore balance if the person's out
161
00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:22.000
of balance. And always say, there's no way to balance
162
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.559
something if you can't measure it. You have to be
163
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:27.559
able to measure it to balance it. And our problem
164
00:09:27.639 --> 00:09:30.840
is we our problem, what I was taught and what's
165
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:35.559
still being taught, is that you cannot measure something in
166
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:39.799
the blood that is fat soluble. Harmones are fat soluble,
167
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:42.519
so you can't measure it in the blood. And we're
168
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:45.919
going to show you. Bendy gave me the book that
169
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.120
just explains this, you know totally. We've got to measure
170
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:52.960
right then we can treat right. We haven't had the
171
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:56.320
proper measurement. I did a whole residency in Objuyanna, and
172
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.240
we never do blood to measure harmones because we knew
173
00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:01.480
it didn't tell us anything. But we have all these
174
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:04.320
people out here who are basing harmone replacement on blood
175
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.000
levels and it's going to cause a big problem.
176
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:11.000
Yeah, we we really have to go back to science,
177
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:12.159
doctor Taylor.
178
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:16.360
Yeah. Yeah. And so speaking of that, let's look at this.
179
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:17.200
Can you see this?
180
00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:17.960
Yeah?
181
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:21.080
I love it?
182
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:23.840
So so you can you can you can tell them
183
00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:24.440
what this is.
184
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.919
Okay. So one of my doctor friends gave me this
185
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:33.600
book and I never I used it because you are
186
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.039
the one that told me how where the information comes
187
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:40.080
from about hormones. This is what obg Wyan's learned from.
188
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.759
So I was like, okay, I got to get this book.
189
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:43.399
So I got it from a friend and then I
190
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.360
actually bought a newer one on a used book site
191
00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:51.879
for like four dollars. Nobody wants serrated, but I do anyway.
192
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:55.879
But the point about this is I never noticed the
193
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:58.080
back of the book until one day it fell and
194
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.320
I looked at I'm like, what is this on the act?
195
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:04.240
I was, oh my gosh. I was like, wow, So
196
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.679
the drug companies are now giving the literature to the
197
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:12.440
doctors to learn. But like you said that, y'all didn't
198
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:15.279
even learn about birth control. So wh why are they
199
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:16.679
even advertized?
200
00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:22.039
Well, you know, so, so here's so here, here's how
201
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.120
here's how I look at this, and this is all
202
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:27.919
this man game is that there's this law of reciprocity,
203
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:32.679
that that that people just naturally do that if somebody
204
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:35.360
gives you something, you feel like you have to reciprocate.
205
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:38.080
So I feel like that the drug reps they would
206
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:39.919
give us books, then they would take us out to
207
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:42.600
dinner and all that stuff. And so then when the
208
00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:45.480
low estering guy comes back, it's in our head that
209
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:48.639
we should we should do, we should prescribe low estring
210
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:51.399
as the birth control pill. But here's the funny thing.
211
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:55.120
There's never the g y and Indochronology book does not
212
00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:57.320
teach you how to use birth control pills. You know
213
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.200
why because birth control pills are not a part part
214
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:07.960
of your physiology. So that's the that's there. Okay, So yeah,
215
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:10.399
you're not going to see low estant in the g
216
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:14.960
y and Interoprenology book because those those chemicals in the
217
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.039
in the uh birkentrol pild is not a part of
218
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:24.240
phys now right, yeah, yeah, And so you know, I
219
00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:28.720
did a lecture for a long time called harment replacement
220
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:32.159
by the book, and every everything I have in that
221
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:35.200
lecture comes from this book. Now, the problem is with
222
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:37.559
the people on the internet and all these doctors who
223
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.519
never have done Obi Juan and even some of the
224
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:42.360
O g y ns who have not gone back to
225
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:46.759
look at the textbook because we've been so indoctrinated by pharmacology.
226
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:50.399
They don't realize that what they are teaching and what
227
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.679
they're telling patients and what people are saying on the
228
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:56.240
internet does not come from the g y and Interoprenology book.
229
00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.279
And I also say that if you go to an endocrinologist,
230
00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:03.559
they not required to read that book. So indocrinologists don't
231
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:08.320
really understand indo chronology. No, no, this is a guy
232
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:14.840
n into chronology. Doctor Taylor ob ob Juyann's is supposed
233
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:17.799
to do it. Look, yeah, but you know what I
234
00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:21.559
read that, I at that book. But here's the problem
235
00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:24.519
in medicine, and you know that it's see one, do one,
236
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:28.840
teach one. So if I see a higher level resident
237
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:32.039
do something, he's going to teach me and then I'm
238
00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:34.600
going to do it. So it's going to be see one,
239
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:36.799
do one, teach one. So all you have to do
