657: How to Prevent, Manage, and Even Reverse Osteoporosis Naturally: The Hormone-Bone Health Connection Every Woman Needs to Know with Dr. Doug Lucas
Osteoporosis is showing up at younger ages in women.
So, waiting until menopause to start thinking about your bones is just way too late.
That’s why in this episode, I’m joined by orthopedic medicine expert Dr. Doug Lucas for a powerful conversation on bone health, aging, longevity, and why your bones are one of the most important (yet often overlooked) pieces of your long-term wellness.
We’ll dive into the surprising ways your daily habits impact your bone density—and what you can do right now to protect and even rebuild your bones as you age.
Dr. Lucas breaks down the importance of supporting your musculoskeletal system, screening and early prevention measures, and why your 30s and 40s are critical decades for building lifelong bone strength.
Strong bones mean a strong life—and it’s never too early (or too late!) to start taking care of them!
Doug Lucas, DO
Dr. Doug Lucas is a double board-certified orthopedic surgeon turned osteoporosis specialist. His mission is to show the world that osteoporosis is preventable AND reversible. He’s the founder of Optimal Human Health MD and PEMA BioIdentical, as well as the creator of The OsteoCollective– where he empowers others to optimize bone health, hormones, and longevity.
IN THIS EPISODE

Imaging and biomarker screening for osteoporosis detection
Factors driving bone loss in younger women
The role hormones play in bone health and bone loss
Lifestyle strategies to enhance bone health and longevity
Strength training recommendations for building strong bones
HRT for women to improve bone health
QUOTES
“I get it from a public health perspective, you want to screen when you're most likely to see the disease… But that doesn't help us prevent it. And preventing osteoporosis is so much easier than reversing osteoporosis.”
“If you are a postmenopausal woman, I strongly encourage you to consider bioidentical hormone replacement, because estradiol is the biggest tool you can use for bone health.”

656: The Dangers Of NOT Prescribing Bioidentical HRT + Migraines, Testosterone and Mitigating Inflammation with Dr. Louise Newson
Too many women are being told NO to getting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for their menopause symptoms in midlife.
But the truth is… the benefits of HRT can WAY outweigh the risks for helping you feel like yourself again. The problem?
The massive knowledge gap in hormonal medicine.
That’s why this week, I’m joined by the incredible Dr. Louise Newson, a trailblazing general practitioner and menopause specialist who’s transforming the conversation around hormone health.
We’re diving into the real risks of not prescribing HRT, why hormones can be a game changer for your symptoms, and the surprising link between menopause, migraines, and inflammation.
Dr. Newson is bringing the science and clarity to the HRT convo, and she’s here to help you reclaim your voice—and your hormonal health.
Listen here to set the record straight and start advocating for what you truly deserve!

QUOTES
“Let's just remind ourselves that hormones are an evidence-based treatment and the guidelines are telling us that it has more benefits than risks for the majority of women. Yet… It's only a minority of women in our countries and other countries that are receiving it.”
“It's harrowing what people are being told by their clinicians. And they often just want advice. They don't always want treatment, or they want to know the treatment options available to them in the future. But they're not getting any answers, and I think this is a great disservice to women.”
“I see a lot in the clinic, women who have seen all sorts of specialists, have all sorts of treatments, but no one's spoken about their hormones.”
