The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

It can take a year and a half for frozen shoulder to thaw.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So ladies, it's okay to do hormone therapy.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Yeah, I agree.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Maybe I'll enjoy it.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

She would pull her thing out and go... We're in the middle of the night.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

And she would blow down her chest at a restaurant.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Which is...

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Not appropriate.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So we actually put our hormones right here and I'm going to put these into the show notes.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So this is another important thing is the timing of the hormones.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Yes, there's an a.m.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So the pregnenolone, the DHEA and the testosterone are mourning.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

You know, you wanna get the benefits of testosterone because testosterone raises libido, it improves your energy level, it actually improves your bone marrow's production of red blood cells.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Red blood cells carry oxygen and what we perceive as energy is nothing more than oxygen in our blood.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So if you said, Gary, I had a lot of energy today,

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

Physiologically what you're saying is I had a lot of oxygen in my blood today.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

So if oxygen equals energy, which it does, then if we want to raise your energy level, we've got to put more oxygen into the blood and the vehicles that carry oxygen are red blood cells inside of a fluid called hemoglobin.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

It's another reason why when you go to a basic blood test and you look at your red blood cell count being in the lowest 10 percentile, but it's normal.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

And you look at your hemoglobin being very, very low, but it's normal.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
227. Menopause: Symptoms, Hormones, Tests & Solutions with Sage Workinger-Brecka & Gary Brecka

And you'll see things like mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, these numbers start to rise because there are fewer red blood cells so the bone marrow is trying to fill them with more fluid.
