I'm 20 year old guy and my mother is 53. Her english is not good and I'm watching your videos for her. I'm mind blown. I thought menopause was just one of those things that comes with aging. Thank you very much!

I work in health care and send so many women to your channel. It is sad to me when I hear about women that have waited too long, have serious sexual problems in their marriage related to menopause symptoms but are afraid to take hormones, women that have disabling symptoms that could be managed. Most of us that get in to health care do it because we like to care for people or want to help people. You truly are a caregiver to have taken on this "task" of education of women of this very confusing and controversial topic. I know that even a retired physician that can no longer practice or that does not want to practice can do all sorts of things to make money not related to direct patient care. But you have chosen to spend your time to do this. It truly is a gift to all who hear you! Thank you so much for this!

I am 58, menopause was at 52. I regularly see my Obgyne since age 29. Yet not a single OBgyne in my country discussed, nor prescribed estrogen as part of womens health from my mother, aunt, sisters, friends, even colleagues at work except for pregnancy. After those productive years for family, everyone just either got a broken hip, cancer, or just passed away for some health issue. You tube has gone a long way in bringing education across boundaries. Thank you so much for this. But left me wondering why OBgynes in our country from the most expensive " hospitals and health care facilities here" never, discussed this to all the "women" in our family and other "women." All we got were osteo tablets and calcium.

Thank you so much for all the great knowledge you share with us! I am 51yrs old and experiencing perimenopause symptoms: hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia. My periods have been off & on since last year! After listening to your videos I decided to go on HRT! I couldn’t believe that after the second week, I haven’t experienced night sweats & hot flashes! What a wonderful feeling!!! Thank you, we appreciate all the precious knowledge! 🙏

Dr barbie, I am so glad I found your channel, its been 3 & half years of my post menopause, now I understand the risk time for me to see my provider. It’s really make sense. Thank you

[laurarios]

Easy to understand. I missed the window of opportunity, it wasn't even discussed with me when I entered menopause.
Look forward to learning alternative ways to prevent dementia, heart attack, and osteoporosis.

I learned about you today💗 I’m so glad. I’m 45 and starting peri menopause. I’m all about educating myself all things menopause now, preventing all the hardships my mother is going through now, with her health. Looking forward to learning form you every day 😊

I am 37 and HRT has been a major improvement in my quality of life! I’ve gotten back 2 weeks each month. I was diagnosed with unexplained POI or “early menopause” and would you believe that HRT was never suggested by fertility doctors! Luckily I have a great GP female doctor that pointed me in the direction to learn more before making the decision. I use gel so I can really control the dose and progesterone pills for limited days. Thanks for teaching women their options! 🙌

It’s been 5 years since my last period. I just started hrt I hope I didn’t age too much during that time. I certainly did notice very dry skin, hair loss, fragile bones, heart palpitations and other things. I hope that I started it soon enough .

Dr barbie, instead of songs I plug my earphones🎧🎧 nd listen to ur radio shows, when I m in the gym, 💪💪 nd belive me they r more motivating than songs🎶🎶

[karensimmons]

You are so good! I feel like crying. You are a God send. Such a wonderful teacher

[suecone]

You have the best information I have ever seen or heard about estrogen! I thank God my Dr did start me on this therapy, then I moved, then they said I had been on it to long and needed to go off, but then I found the Dr I see now and I really don’t see an end. Thanks 🙏

[nicolewalker]

Doc, I truly appreciate everything you are doing for the menopausal community. You have been such a comfort to me on this journey! I purchased your book and have been going through your playlist of tutorials. I am about to turn 50, I have not had a period in almost 7 months, but have been experiencing peri- menopausal symptoms for years. These videos on estrogen are particularly interesting to me because I have had so many people telling me that estrogen didn’t work for them. Even though I haven’t started BHRT yet, I feel that my body is definitely craving estrogen!

[maximac]

I found this video so informative! I've been on the fence about HRT. But the 3 main benefits listed here are the best reasons imaginable!!! My window is closing this week!!! I'm making an appt asap!!!

[vivianallen]

I just joined your channel and I have to tell you, I feel now that I have the tools to protect myself from disease. So many myths I’ve heard about menopause I thought I had no options. Thank you for this informative video, you explain things where it’s so easy to understand. Thank you.

[twinklestar]

You are doing so much for human kind... Thank you.

[yanethczech]

What an amazing educator and mentor. (I’m a teacher and your teaching techniques truly make things understandable). THANK YOU for helping us women! May God bless YOU always!

I’ve got about 5 more months before my 12 month amenorrhea anniversary, but I have had YEARS of symptoms and am FED UP! Not to mention Alzheimer’s AND osteoporosis runs in my family. I am typically EXTREMELY wary of pharmaceuticals, but the information you so generously and effectively provide in your tutorials has given me the confidence about what course to take and the hope that my condition will get better. I made an appointment with a specialist at a local clinic and am hoping she will allow me to start estrogen replacement ASAP! So 💕HUGE THANKS💕 to you for doing what you do! I believe you are SAVING PEOPLE’S LIVES with this information. There should be a series of videos like this for EVERY ailment!

[kathymacgregor]

I'm so excited to meet with you! I just booked a consultation with you!

[rachelbird]

I am lucky enough to have a specialist menopause clinic near me and also I am lucky enough to afford to visit it. I am 51 and still have regular periods. However I am having stiff aching joints and palpitations so I asked at the clinic if I could start HRT. they said yes and now I am starting my HRT journey. I will be monitoring my joint/heart symptoms to see if it helps. I am glad that Dr Taylor confirms this is a valid thing to do.
