This year, Oprah has dedicated herself to balance and her own experience with hormone balance led the charge. In her first show on the topic, “The Great Debate: Should You Replace Your Hormones ?” Oprah and her guests explored how “out of whack” hormones can leave women feeling sick and tired, and provided viewers with a new language to openly and honestly discuss the specifics. Dr. Christiane Northrup, author of The Wisdom of Menopause, and Robin McGraw, What’s Age Got to Do with It?” author, both champions of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), shared their knowledge and experience on the show. Oprah’s website and magazine delved deeper and provided viewers and readers with resources, including the bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) experts at BodyLogicMD.
After Oprah’s first show on hormone imbalance, BHRT and the other options available to women experiencing hormone imbalance associated with perimenopause, menopause, adrenal fatigue and thyroid issues, her viewers and website visitors begged for more information. Never one to shrink from a challenge, Oprah complied in a big way.
Oprah sat down with Suzanne Somers, author of Ageless, The Naked Truth About Bioidentical Hormones and Breakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness, to hear why she refuses to keep quiet about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). After a terrifying cancer diagnosis, Somers learned to take charge of her health. She shared both her struggles with hormone imbalance and her success with focusing on nutrition, fitness and compounded bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.
Suzanne, who dedicated a complete chapter of Ageless to BodyLogicMD and lists them as an expert resource in Breakthrough, has been met with relentless controversy…but to a whole lot of women, she is a savior.
We look forward to joining Oprah and her guests on the continued journey toward balance, and keeping our own visitors and patients on the leading edge of BHRT, or as Dr. Northrup describes it, “the wave of the future.”
