Do You Have Enough Estrogen to Protect Your Bones?

In this episode, Dr. Douglas Lucas discusses the crucial role Estradiol levels play in bone health. Many doctors do not test estradiol levels, which can lead to inadequate protection of bones. Different types of testing, such as urine and saliva testing, can yield different results, but blood testing is the gold standard. He also delves into how compounded creams and commercial patches can be used to achieve the desired estradiol levels. More is not necessarily better, and hitting the threshold is sufficient for bone health!
