Short excerpt from a YouTube video by Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter discussing how metabolic factors—particularly hormone balance (thyroid, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) and diet—contribute to joint problems. He highlights frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) as a condition for which PRP is an effective treatment, and notes that metabolic contributors are often not addressed.
All of these things contribute so heavily to some of these problems that we have with our joints.
And if we look at something like a stiff shoulder, a frozen shoulder, adhesive capsulitis, PRP is a magnificent treatment for this. But there's so much that goes into that type of problem metabolically. You know, it's thyroid, it's estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, balance, it's diet. All of these things contribute so heavily to some of these problems that we have with our joints. And it's just not addressed. It's just not addressed at all.
