Here's your host, doctor Eldrid Tables.
15
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:07.519
Hello, Good morning, Happy Wednesday for April first, Oh, this
16
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:10.239
is this is April Fool's Day. But I'm not fooling
17
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:14.200
anybody today. But we are going to talk about a
18
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:18.000
subject that is near and dear to my heart. We're
19
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.799
going to continue to talk about harmone confusion because it's
20
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.159
so rampant and it's such a topic. It's a topic
21
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:29.280
that I understand that you have to repeat it over
22
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.560
and over again, you know. My One of my problems
23
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:35.879
is is that I will do a video, I'll I'll
24
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.560
do a lecture or whatever, and somehow I believe everybody
25
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:42.480
saw it. I can't, I can't repeat it. And now
26
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.239
I'm understanding that when you're trying to get over a concept,
27
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:48.079
you have to repeat it several times, you know. So
28
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:50.159
I try to come up with something different every time.
29
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.159
But now I understand that sometimes the foundational things you
30
00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:55.319
have to repeat it over and over again. And the
31
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.519
reason why I think is so important is because I'm
32
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.359
starting to look around and look at well to do
33
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:03.480
TikTok and Instagram and Facebook, trying to get this message out,
34
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:07.280
and I see that the confusion is rampant. I mean,
35
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:12.319
it's global. It's not a United States medical system problem.
36
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:15.879
It's not because we have healthcare issues here. Even places
37
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:20.680
that have universal healthcare, they're still confused about hermones. And
38
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:24.199
I've been I've been dealing with harmones for twenty five years.
39
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:26.960
It was confusing to me when I left my residency
40
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:30.599
in OBGYN because I was taught just like physicians are
41
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:34.479
being taught now. So I ended my heartmone confusion twenty
42
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:36.719
five years ago, and it changed my life. If you
43
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:39.680
see those pitches on the introduction of us going to
44
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.960
Egypt and all these places, it's because it's because we're
45
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.960
living life without this turmoil of our hormones being crazy.
46
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.240
And it's not because we're taking a bunch of hormones.
47
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:56.759
It's just that we understand it and we can manage
48
00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:58.680
our lives around it and do the things that we're
49
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.639
supposed to do. So anyway, without further ado, I want
50
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:05.039
you to understand the cost of hormone confusion. And it's
51
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:08.039
not just you, it's also physicians. I just got a
52
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:11.199
message from a physician today and said, yeah, I've been
53
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:13.439
looking at some of your videos, and I get it.
54
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:16.560
Blood testing is not good. It doesn't tell us anything,
55
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:19.400
but they just don't know what the next step is.
56
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.840
And that's what I'm trying to do for physicians and
57
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.520
trying to do for you guys, that you know what
58
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:27.560
the next step is. If this is not working, what
59
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.560
can work? And I think everybody knows that blood testing
60
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:33.080
doesn't work. But anyway, let's start with let's start with
61
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.120
the slides, all right, The real cost of hormone confusion
62
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:40.039
is not just about symptoms. It's about everything your life
63
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:42.120
could be. And that's what I'm talking about. You know,
64
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.919
my wife and I we are in our sixties, but
65
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:49.319
we are living life, trying to live life to the fullest.
66
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.479
And I see women who are twenty five and thirty
67
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.439
who are dealing with hormones and don't know They don't
68
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.599
know what to do, and it's on birth control pills,
69
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.719
they're on antidepresses or all these things, and their life
70
00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:03.599
is suffering because of it. Because you don't want to
71
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:07.000
put your life on hold because you don't understand what
72
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:09.560
is going on in your body. And I think I
73
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.080
can change these slash Yeah, So what are the problems
74
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:16.279
you have? All this unexplained fatigue? Why can't I get
75
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.079
myself out of bed? You know? Why am I so
76
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:22.879
so volatile? You know? My kids ask me for something
77
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:25.720
and it just irritates me, and they're not asking for
78
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:28.639
anything demanding. Why do I wake up at three o'clock
79
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.160
in the morning. What is going on with my career?
80
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:34.279
I probably am not going to get promoted because I
81
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:37.040
can't do the work like I used to do. So
82
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:40.439
you know what can I do? Why can't anybody give
83
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:43.800
me any answers. Why am I asking people on Facebook
84
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:47.120
to explain what is going on with me? Why am
85
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:50.120
I so confused when I leave the doctor's office? Why
86
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.399
do I try all these things and they don't work?
87
00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:58.800
So that's where all the confusion is. It's very expensive mentally, physically, financially,
88
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:03.199
it's costing you. You in all types of waves. Now, see,
89
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:08.000
most people and even the medical community, they're looking at
90
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.000
your symptoms. Okay, so if they see anxiety and mood
91
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:16.680
swings and brain fog, then it's going to be antidepressants
92
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.439
or vivance or something like that, because they're only looking
93
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:23.079
at the symptom, trying to get rid of the symptom.
94
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:27.480
But the underlying problem is never addressed. So what happens
95
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:30.959
with medications. The longer you're on a medication that's covering
96
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:36.199
up the symptom, the underlying problem is continually worsening because
97
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:38.920
you have not fixed the real problem. This is just
98
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:43.000
the end product. The actual problem is upstream, all right,
99
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.399
sleep disruption, difficulty falling asleep, waking up at two or
100
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:49.120
four o'clock. You're going to get ambient, You're going to
101
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:52.439
get trazodome. All of these are just trying to cover
102
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.279
up the symptom, and then you get the physical symptoms
103
00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:58.439
of unexplained weight gain and persistem fatigue. They'll do your
104
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.839
blood count, they say, well, your blood can out looks okay.
105
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.720
And then they say, well, we're not sure why you're tired,
106
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.279
why are you're gaining weight? So they look at everything.
107
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:10.160
Everything looks normal. So then they begin accusing you of
108
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.360
sneaking down at the opening up the refrigerator in the
109
00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:16.240
middle of the night, and you're not being honest about
110
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:20.319
what you eat and how you're exercising. But those are
111
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:23.399
looking at the symptoms. The weight gain and the persistent
112
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.839
fatigue is all a part of this common pattern that
113
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.480
we're going to talk about, right, and then we have
114
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:33.800
so many people who feel like this, tired but wired.
115
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:36.680
And I tell you this is an epidemic where people
116
00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:40.439
can't hardly get out of bed in the daytime. They
117
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.879
push through the day, they finally start to feel somewhat
118
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:48.560
normal around noon. They feel pretty good until about dinner time,
119
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:51.079
and then when they should be winding down and going
120
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.240
to sleep, all of a sudden, they're wired. Either they
121
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:56.959
have difficulty going to sleep or they fall asleep and
122
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.040
they wake up at two or three o'clock in the morning,
123
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.560
and this is and so you get trasodom, you get
124
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.519
some kind of vivance or adderall or something that gets
125
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:10.759
you stimulated in the morning. Again, those are symptoms. The
126
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:15.519
problem is really upstream. It's usually stress and cortisol. You
127
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.560
have a disrupted cortisol rhythm, So that's what it is.
128
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:22.279
Until you fix that quartisol rhythm, you are not going
129
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:26.040
to solve the problem by covering up the symptoms with
130
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:31.279
some type of medication. Then there's a hidden costs that
131
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:35.000
not many people talk about. The symptoms are only the surface.
132
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.680
Beneath them. Hormone imbalance quietly affects the parts of life
133
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:43.079
that matter most. So it's not really about the blood work.
134
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:47.000
It's not about the symptoms. It's about how your relationships suffer.
135
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:52.120
There's so many people when your hertmone shift, the relationship shifts,
136
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:56.439
and because they don't understand it, because they're confused, they
137
00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:59.160
always are going to blame the person who is closest
138
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:02.439
to them. That if they're irritable, it's the other person
139
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.959
making them irritable. If it's lolabido, it's because maybe I
140
00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:09.160
don't love you anymore if his mood swings is why
141
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.240
is this guy? Why is this person always triggering me?
142
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.920
Why are they doing this to me? And that creates
143
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:19.120
distance from people you love, That makes it where you
144
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:22.800
feel where women especially, and when they're irritable and they
145
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:26.680
fuss at their kids when it's not necessary, then they
146
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.279
end up being depressed and they feel bad about it.
147
00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:33.200
And then you get in arguments with your spouse and
148
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.200
then afterwards you say, what were we fighting about? How
149
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.120
do we go off on this tangent? And what happens
150
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:41.960
is you begin to try and hurt the other person
151
00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:44.879
more and more. Because you're being hurt, you want to
152
00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:48.559
hurt back. So all of this is triggered because we
153
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:53.720
haven't fixed her the initial problem. So performance declines. It
154
00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:57.480
declines at home, it declines in your decisions that you're making.
155
00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:00.720
It declines in your ability to be able to perform
156
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.240
at work so that you can advance in your career.
157
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.080
If you're an entrepreneur, I'd like to deal with these
158
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:10.120
high functioning people, these people who are really trying to
159
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.360
make a difference in the world and make a difference
160
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:17.399
in their relationships or whatever, and they're stuck because their
161
00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:20.360
hertmones are out of balance. They have the desire, and
162
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:22.879
when you can't fulfill that desire or when it takes
163
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:25.840
too much energy to do what you used to do,
164
00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:29.639
it becomes very frustrating. And now that's a stress to
165
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:32.320
be on top of the stress that you already had,
166
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:34.279
and then on top of the stress that you have
167
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.360
because you can't perform in a way you think you should.
168
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:39.720
That's what happened to me is that as an ob
169
00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:42.759
at first I could get up in the middle of
170
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:45.080
the night and two or three o'clock in the morning
171
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:47.960
and go and deliver a baby. As I got older,
172
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.879
it became more and more taxing on me. And then
173
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:52.960
I used to go out and speak and travel all
174
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:55.879
over the world, and then that became taxing to me,
175
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:59.000
and it really burned me out. So I've lived this experience.
176
00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:02.759
I know what happens, all right. Your relationships suffer, your
177
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:06.240
performance to class, and your joy diminishes because you don't
178
00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:10.080
have the energy to do anything outside of your obligations.
179
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:13.320
So you just go to work, you push through work,
180
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.200
You go home, you eat dinner, you clean up the kitchen,
181
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:17.759
and you go right back and you do it all
182
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:21.840
over again. So your joy, your ability to expand yourself
183
00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:26.159
to to have new opportunities and new adventures. You don't
184
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:28.200
have the energy to do it. So your life is
185
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:32.600
on hold all because you have not fixed the upstream problem.
186
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:38.399
All right, okay, and it's not the person. Okay, You're
187
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:41.399
not the person. People always say, I just don't feel
188
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:44.720
like myself again, and then we get their heartmon straightened
189
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:48.200
and say, oh, I finally feel like myself again. And
190
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.519
so it's not you. You are not the problem. Your physiology
191
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:55.159
is the problem, and it's really not a problem. The
192
00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:59.600
physiology is reacting to the situation. And most of the
193
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:03.440
time the situation is that the person is under stress,
194
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:07.720
and that stress biology the changes that your physiology goes
195
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:11.360
through when you are under stress. And again, it doesn't
196
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:14.639
have to be a perceived stress. It can be any
197
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:19.679
type of stress or emotional stressor a physical stressor a
198
00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:22.159
just a stressor that you think up in your mind,
199
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:25.200
you being worried about what might happen in the future.
200
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:29.919
All of those that stress physiology is causing these changes.
201
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:33.679
If you can fix that stress physiology, then all of
202
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.000
these changes will reverse. So you are not failing, You
203
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.799
are not weak. You are not imagining it. Your biology
204
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:44.759
is sending you a clear signal and it deserves to
205
00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:47.519
be read correctly. So here's what you understand. I want
206
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:50.799
you to stop thinking of symptoms as something that needs
207
00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:55.039
to be eliminated. Symptoms are a signal that something is wrong.
208
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:58.960
You just need to know what that signal represents. So
209
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.639
if you know being tired and wired as a signal
210
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.399
that my quotas are rhythm might be out of balance,
211
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:06.960
then you know I need to test my quota is off.
212
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:10.279
If you feel like that a week or two before
213
00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:14.159
your cycle, your whole personality changes. You need to understand
214
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:18.080
that your minstrel cycle is out of rhythm. If you
215
00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:21.039
have gone through menopause and you know that that is
216
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:24.679
a significant change, you need to see what that change
217
00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:28.000
represents or what those symptoms represent. So you need to
218
00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:30.879
do a test. So the symptoms are not the end all.
219
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:34.279
The symptoms should lead you to the proper testing. So
220
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:36.840
we take symptoms and then we guess what to do
221
00:12:36.919 --> 00:12:39.440
about it. Or that's what I used to do, So
222
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:42.320
that's not the way to do it. Understand the physiology,
223
00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:45.879
and it's easy to understand. You can understand it. Physicians
224
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:48.600
can understand it, but they've just been exposed to this
225
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:52.360
alternative way of thinking and they have to think differently.
226
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:54.679
And that's what I'm trying to do with physicians also.
227
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:58.120
All Right, See here's the problem, and this is what
228
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:00.519
I was taught. See, you're fine, but you don't feel fan.
229
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:03.120
See what the doctor says is that your blood work
230
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.399
looks normal and everything is within normal range, and you
231
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.600
are fine. And the doctor really believes that because that's
232
00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:13.159
what we've been taught, is that if your labs are
233
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.360
in the normal range, then you are fine. No, that
234
00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:19.120
just means your labs are in the normal range, And
235
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:24.120
especially with estrogen, progesteral, testosterone, and cortisol, they are looking
236
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:27.440
at blood levels and blood levels don't mean anything. And
237
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:29.519
I'm going to get to that. So that is the problem.
238
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:31.279
If you look in the wrong place, you're going to
239
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:34.080
find the wrong information, and then if you give out
