A short YouTube discussion (Dr. Tabatha Barber) arguing that poor sleep and disrupted circadian rhythm worsen menopausal symptoms—such as hot flashes and disturbed sleep—regardless of hormone therapy or new pharmacologic treatments. Speakers emphasize calming the mind and restoring sleep as necessary for symptom improvement.
We know if you're getting taking hormones for premenopause or menopausal symptoms. Example hot flash or disturbed sleep. If you don't calm your busy brain and if you don't restore your circadian rhythm and sleep through the night, those symptoms are going to be worse. Regardless of you're taking hormones or the new medication that's on the market for hot flashes.
Absolutely. And I say it time and time again. We're just going to keep changing the doses, we're going to keep chasing the lab values, and you're not going to feel better.
