In this week’s episode of Perimenopause Simplified, we have special guest Dr. Doug Lucas, a double board-certified physician specializing in osteoporosis reversal, hormone replacement, and healthspan.

He started Optimal Human Health MD, a nationwide telehealth practice, which focuses exclusively on bone health, with a mission to educate the world that osteoporosis is reversible.

He also launched PEMA BioIdentical after realizing how challenging it was for his patients to find high-quality bioidentical hormone replacement therapy providers, now supporting as many women as possible to find the best BHRT solutions for their needs.

His mission to educate the world plays out on his YouTube channel, The Dr. Doug Show, within his membership community, HealthSpan Nation, and on stages across the globe.

In this episode, we covered:

• Bone loss in perimenopause
• The tests to consider to assess bone health
• Top causes of bone loss
• Food & lifestyle interventions to support bones
• Medications for osteoporosis - yay or nay?
• Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy & bone health
• Supplements to support bone health
