That's why there are \u201chormone products\u201d, whose chemical structures are different from those that should occupy the receptors, but the industry promotes them because it gains from patenting each \u201cnew substance\u201d for up to 10 years. And of course hormone products will have different effects to the correct hormones for each receptor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5 - NO ONE should use hormones without first adopting and maintaining a healthier lifestyle and healthy living habits (<a href=\"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/15habitos\/\">https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/15habitos\/<\/a>). Those who have the most bad effects from hormones (when well indicated) are often the ones who disregard this rule and end up blaming hormones for failure in other \u201csectors\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6 - When you \u201ctweak\u201d one hormone, you're always affecting several others, directly or indirectly. That's why it's so important to evaluate and adjust them in the most diverse and comprehensive way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7 - Most check-ups don't fully assess the various hormones that interact to benefit health. Incomplete assessments are therefore more likely to fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8 - Many health professionals prescribe hormones unnecessarily, in excess, mistakenly or without knowing how to monitor their use, let alone deal with possible adverse effects, often caused by their own malpractice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9 - It's not just endocrinologists or gynecologists, legally and in practice, who know or can assess and treat hormonal issues: every doctor can, although the ability to do so correctly is another matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">10 - You NEED to know more about the subject, so as not to harm your own health by believing in prejudices, beliefs or rumors.

To do this, I often look for new, up-to-date and, above all, reliable sources of quality knowledge. One of them is Dr. Frank Shallenberger, an American doctor whose material and intellectual output are praiseworthy and widely available for free on the internet (in English). Following his material, I had access to one that particularly caught my attention, so much so that I strongly recommend that every health professional access and learn from it: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/L42C3BWU3BU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/L42C3BWU3BU<\/a> (Class name: BioIdentical Hormone Therapy) - or search for \u2018Shallenberger Hormones\u2019 on YouTube. In this video, less than an hour long, Dr. Frank Shallenberger gives not only a great lesson on hormones, but also explains why their use is necessary and beneficial (when done well) for the vast majority of people as they age, and teaches the basics of how to replace them, when appropriate. The video can also teach a lot to non-health professionals, among the most knowledgeable and studious of health issues (for the latter, of course: whenever you think you need hormones, seek the opinion of a good, knowledgeable doctor before self-medicating). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I study hormones because, although I'm not an endocrinologist, I believe that every doctor should understand them and indicate them when necessary (or help to modulate their levels, whenever possible, in my opinion): this story that only endocrinologists can deal with hormones is a myth and ends up keeping health professionals away from knowledge that could optimize their daily work and decisively benefit their patients' health outcomes. I complement the study of the issue with my material on hormones, which is already available for you at <a href=\"http:\/\/icaro.med.br\/HORMONIOS\">icaro.med.br\/HORMONIOS<\/a> e <a href=\"http:\/\/icaro.med.br.modulacao\/\">icaro.med.br.MODULACAO<\/a>. Having said all that, please enjoy my \u2018Portuguese translation\u2019 of the video cited by Dr. Shallenberger (the original is in English and this may make it difficult for many to understand the excellent content), explaining even better the appropriate use of hormones, when potentially indicated and beneficial for patients. Learn with quality content and I look forward to receiving your comments, questions and suggestions after watching the entire video and accessing the links mentioned.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And this video, with the participation of Dr. Daniel Braga, endocrinologist:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe  id=\"_ytid_53254\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\"  data-relstop=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2TOH8WPckko?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 \u2013 A maioria dos adultos tem problemas hormonais, que podem causar ou agravar todos os sintomas e doen\u00e7as que voc\u00ea imaginar. 2 \u2013 Muitas pessoas est\u00e3o tomando rem\u00e9dios em excesso ou desnecessariamente: muitos dist\u00farbios poderiam ser prevenidos, curados ou ao menos aliviados atrav\u00e9s do ajuste ou restabelecimento do equil\u00edbrio hormonal, muitas vezes sem a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23552,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6059","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hormonios"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6059"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6059\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24661,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6059\/revisions\/24661"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6059"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icaro.med.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
