  • Resumen

  • Transdermal estrogen in the form of a patch, gel, or cream is often the preferred delivery method for menopausal hormone therapy. Unlike oral estrogen, in addition to other advantages, transdermal estrogen does not increase the risk of blood clots. But a new study, published in the journal Menopause, indicates that your transdermal estrogen… may not be doing what you think it’s doing. Today, I am speaking with one of the authors of that study, Dr. Louise Newson. My Substack post summarizing the study: https://drstreicher.substack.com/p/is-your-estrogen-patch-gel-or-spray?r=740mq Link to article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39689249/ We discuss: The advantages of transdermal estrogenThe realization that blood levels of transdermal estrogen may be below what is expectedWhat the study looked atResults of the studyWhat factors may cause decreased absorption of transdermal estrogenWhy decreased levels of estrogen are problematicWays to maximize absorptionOptions if serum estrogen levels are low on standard doses of transdermal estrogenConcerns of using a higher than standard doseThe pushback in the UK regarding Dr. Newson’s workIf it should be routine to measure blood levels of estrogen if using a transdermal product For more information on Dr. Newson, visit DrLouise Newson.com Dr. Streicher is on SUBSTACK DrStreicher.Substack.com ArticlesMonthly newsletterAll COME AGAIN podcast episodes Monthly News Flash Reports on recent research Monthly Zoom Ask Me Anything Webinar Lauren Streicher, MD is a clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine, the founding medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause, and a Senior Research Fellow of The Kinsey Institute, Indiana University.
