    335: Physiologic HRT: Rethinking Women's Hormones

    In this episode of The Dr. Lo Show, Dr. Noel sits down with Mai Tran, Pharm D, a compounding pharmacist and Director of Clinical Education at Harbor Compounding Pharmacy, to unpack why hormones are the low‑hanging fruit of women's health. They dive into physiologic hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—an approach that mimics a healthy menstrual cycle—versus standard "low dose" HRT, and explore how the right form, dose, and rhythm of hormones can profoundly impact brain health, bones, cardiovascular system, libido, mood, skin, hair, and joints. Along the way, they debunk long‑standing fears about estrogen and cancer, explain what the Women's Health Initiative really showed, and discuss how to personalize hormone care using labs and cycle mapping. If you've ever been told to "just accept" getting older, feeling flat, or losing your spark, this conversation offers a different option.     Resources & Links Mentioned Harbor Compounding Pharmacy (Dr. Maya's pharmacy & education work) https://www.harborcompounding.com Harbor Academy (provider training on HRT; hosted by Harbor Compounding) https://www.harborcompounding.com/harbor-academy Dr. Dale Bredesen – "The End of Alzheimer's" Book: The End of Alzheimer's by Dale Bredesen, MD https://www.apollohealthco.com/the-end-of-alzheimers/ Cycle‑mapping and fertility tracking devices mentioned Mira Fertility (hormone tracking at home) – https://www.miracare.com Inito (hormone and fertility monitor) – https://www.inito.com Hormone Women's Network / women's hormone education (Network Maya collaborates with to educate clinicians on PHRT) https://www.hormonewomensnetwork.com Dr. Noel's clinic/contact (for listeners wanting assessment & PHRT)            https://shinenaturalmedicine.com/ Follow Dr. Lo  @doctor_lo @shinenaturalmedicine

    332: Fertility is Not Just Biology. It's Safety. with Dr. Aumatma Simmons,MS, ND, FABNE

    In this episode, Dr. Lo sits down with Dr. Aumatma Simmons, double board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist and founder of Madre Fertility. Dr. Aumatma has helped hundreds of couples previously labeled "infertile" conceive naturally by focusing on root-cause restoration rather than expensive or invasive interventions. She recently delivered a TED Talk on the role safety plays in fertility: not just physical safety, but emotional, environmental, and physiological safety deep within the body. Together, we explore why so many women today are being told their fertility "falls off a cliff" at 35 (spoiler: the science behind this is not what we've been led to believe), the role of the nervous system in reproduction, how toxins impact egg and sperm quality, and why the partner's health matters just as much as your own. If you're trying to conceive now or want to preserve your fertility for the future, this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and hope. About Dr. Aumatma Simmons: Dr. Aumatma Simmons is a naturopathic endocrinologist specializing in holistic fertility. She is the creator of the world's first smart fertility analysis system, Madre Fertility, a best-selling author, and host of an award-winning podcast. She has trained hundreds of physicians in her Fertile Systems Approach and supports couples in conceiving naturally without unnecessary financial or emotional strain. What We Cover: Why safety in the body is the foundation of fertility The truth about the "age 35 fertility cliff" How burnout, overwork, and stress signal to the body "now is not safe to reproduce" What lab testing actually matters when trying to conceive Why egg quality can improve over time (yes, really) The rising decline in male fertility and what's driving it When toxins and mold exposures are playing a hidden role Why IVF is sometimes recommended simply because of age, not evidence What it looks like to approach fertility as a whole-body system, not a reproductive "issue" Labs & Tools Discussed: Full thyroid panel (including antibodies) DUTCH test + Cycle Mapping Vaginal microbiome testing Nutrient & antioxidant panels Mycotoxin + environmental toxin testing (case-by-case) Nervous system retraining for restoring "inner safety" Key Takeaway: Fertility is not just about ovaries, egg count, or age. It's about whether the body feels safe enough to prioritize reproduction. And yes, fertility can be supported, restored, and even improved — at any age.
