Androgens: Weight Control in Postmenopausal Women

Third Study, 1998. This is 39 healthy postmenopausal women with increasing body weight were studied for six months. They found that androgens are capable of reducing abdominal fat accumulations as well as total body weight in post menopausal women with unexplained weight gain. We know that women who are in menopause suffer from menopausal symptoms. Hot flashes, night sweats, fogginess, brain fog, weight gain, decreased bone mass, started getting increased rates of cancer, heart disease, neurocognitive Decline. Between about 2002 and in about 2015 or so, we pretty much were putting women in menopause on psychiatric drugs, treating menopause like a psychiatrist disorder. We could not have been further from the truth. Hormone replacement therapy is not only safe, but it protects life.
