Dr Rebecca Glaser retired from breast cancer surgery and is currently involved in research on testosterone therapy by pellet implant and has evaluated and treated over 1500 breast cancer patients. Her research publications have been extensively cited (over 2400 citations) and in this episode, she explains all her findings on the use of testosterone with an aromatase inhibitor in breast cancer patients.

Dr Glaser’s work is not mainstream practice but more and more women have asked us to speak about this and so we hope this episode will help you have an informed conversation with your own medical team.



We discuss:

*estrogen vs testosterone in women - this might surprise you

*Why a testosterone implant vs. transdermal testosterone?

*Testosterone after breast cancer: what do we know?

*Testosterone with an Aromatase Inhibitor

*Benefits and side effects?

*Benefits of overall survival rates

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
