We are speaking to the dynamic Jessica Shepherd. Dr. Shepherd is Chief Medical Officer at Hims and Hers, and she has written a book, and she has her own platform. Tell us about the menopause platform, Dr. Shepherd. 49 00:05:05.730 --> 00:05:24.000 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, my menopause platform is Modern Minnow, and it really is taking all the noise and overwhelm that we typically see on social media, and really dialing that down to how we can build community, get questions answered, maybe a little bit more personalized, and then providing community with experts. 50 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.879 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And, really getting them the information they need. 51 00:05:27.230 --> 00:05:29.600 Beauty By Dr. Kay: We need this! I can't wait to talk about it. 52 00:05:29.810 --> 00:05:30.920 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Amazing. 53 00:05:31.700 --> 00:05:42.319 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Okay, great, that was awesome.

Okay, great. 54 00:05:42.490 --> 00:05:43.890 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Thank you so much. 55 00:05:44.870 --> 00:05:46.639 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Here we go. 56 00:05:51.400 --> 00:05:52.290 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Should I… 57 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:02.520 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Yeah. 58 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:16.619 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Here we go, alright. Well, hello, hello guys, you're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K, Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, and it's time for a really interesting podcast. We're gonna talk about menopause. 59 00:06:16.620 --> 00:06:30.919 Beauty By Dr. Kay: with one of the most valuable and interesting ladies who's in menopause. I'd love to introduce you to Dr. Jessica Shepherd. She's a board-certified gynecologist and a women's health expert. She specializes in menopausal health. 60 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:46.999 Beauty By Dr. Kay: She's also the chief medical officer for HERS, you know him's and hers, and her holistic practice is called Sanctum Med Wellness in Dallas, and she's created this amazing place for patients to explore a holistic journey to optimize their health. 61 00:06:47.000 --> 00:07:02.510 Beauty By Dr. Kay: She's been featured all over the media in Self Magazine, Women's Health Magazine, we lectured on a stage once, and she's just released a book. It's called Generation M, and this has created so much buzz. She also has a really interesting modern menopause platform. 62 00:07:02.510 --> 00:07:14.390 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And she is such a total expert on sexual health, physical health, emotional health. She's so passionate about women's health and longevity and wellness. Welcome to the podcast, Dr. Scheer. 63 00:07:14.390 --> 00:07:15.779 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, it is so… 64 00:07:16.150 --> 00:07:23.459 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Exciting to be here, especially since we were on the same stage, and like, right after, we were like, let's do something together, so here we are. 65 00:07:23.460 --> 00:07:41.040 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Exactly! She ran in, she put her heels on, and we went on stage together. It was, like, in and out, so flying… you're flying around these days. You're everywhere. You're on Good Morning America, CBS, NBC, CNN, The Today Show. What's it like to write and launch a book? 66 00:07:41.740 --> 00:07:45.390 Sanctum Med + Wellness: It is… Paper cuts by a thousand. 67 00:07:45.880 --> 00:07:48.220 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Death wiping. 68 00:07:48.570 --> 00:07:54.599 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But in the end, when you see, you know, the product, the actual book, you know, it's very… 69 00:07:54.730 --> 00:08:08.629 Sanctum Med + Wellness: gratifying, but then, you know, even from that is seeing how many people are impacted after that, and being able to speak to people about what they were able to learn and how it reached or touched them. That's… that's probably the best part. 70 00:08:09.130 --> 00:08:14.479 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's incredible. So you wrote Generation M, and is that the menopause generation? 71 00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:22.530 Sanctum Med + Wellness: is, you know, 100% of women go through menopause, so what I wanted to be able to express through the book is 72 00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:40.369 Sanctum Med + Wellness: not this fear kind of timeframe in which women get to, which is typically what we hear, you know, society-wise, is that it's this fearful timeframe, but something that women would want to be a part of, and, you know, join the club. We're all part of Generation M at some point in our life, and that's really what I wanted 73 00:08:40.370 --> 00:08:45.769 Sanctum Med + Wellness: It to showcase is that we don't have to be fearful of it, but there's so many ways to… 74 00:08:45.770 --> 00:08:59.650 Sanctum Med + Wellness: get through this part of our lives, because, one, we spend the rest of our lives in that postmenopausal phase, and it is 40% of our life is spent in that time frame. So why would we want to build it in a way where it is not 75 00:09:00.520 --> 00:09:06.560 Sanctum Med + Wellness: joyful, or it is not something that we're looking forward to, and that's what I think we should change that to. 76 00:09:06.910 --> 00:09:26.189 Beauty By Dr. Kay: 40%, that's a staggering number, right? I think people don't realize, because women live so long, longer than most male counterparts, right? We'll get into our 80s, so if you hit menopause, perimenopause in, you know, your 40s sometime, and then actual menopause in your 50s, and then it's like, that's a lot of years to live without optimal hormones. 77 00:09:26.190 --> 00:09:26.840 Sanctum Med + Wellness: in the environment. 78 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:28.300 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Hormones and wellness. 79 00:09:28.660 --> 00:09:37.780 Beauty By Dr. Kay: So what are the most common symptoms that people have that they're in perimenopause and they didn't even realize it, that all this time they've been in perimenopause? 80 00:09:37.780 --> 00:09:52.469 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, perimenopause is more of that chaotic time frame in a woman's life because, one, they're still menstruating, whether it's a regular or regular, they still have that feature, and so you're not really attributing to menopause, which is when you don't have a cycle. 81 00:09:52.470 --> 00:10:02.289 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So, there are these subtle types of changes that occur over time, whether that's, you know, hot flashes, but they're maybe not as severe, but you're like, was that a hot flash? 82 00:10:02.290 --> 00:10:10.619 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Changes in sleep, I think, are, some of the big ones that I see. Change in mood. Emotional kind of, changes… 83 00:10:10.760 --> 00:10:23.000 Sanctum Med + Wellness: regulation, resilience, what you're tolerating is a lot of what I hear from women as well. And so, it's just like it's, like, subtly kind of coming on, and then you're like. 84 00:10:23.070 --> 00:10:34.889 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Is that what I'm going through? Is it not? It's very confusing, and I think that brings a lot of frustration as well. So, those are some of the symptoms that women see, and they're not always there. 85 00:10:34.920 --> 00:10:52.280 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And then you go into menopause, and that's when it becomes a little bit more severe, and women are like, okay, this is definitely menopause, in addition to you're not having your cycle. So, they're really different time frames, but they all kind of combine into this experience, and I think that the more that we can ease women 86 00:10:52.280 --> 00:10:55.810 Sanctum Med + Wellness: In, kind of, the knowledge of knowing what's coming. 87 00:10:56.010 --> 00:11:08.880 Sanctum Med + Wellness: How to get through it, what is available, what tools and resources there are, so that by the time you do become menopausal, you've kind of already given yourself this framework of what you would like to do. 88 00:11:09.030 --> 00:11:21.439 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Yeah, so you kind of built your own plan for getting through it. But I think that part of the problem is that hormone therapy is still so confusing for many women, and I would say that 89 00:11:21.460 --> 00:11:35.630 Beauty By Dr. Kay: probably the majority of gynecologists out there do not have a great hormone therapy setup, and don't even want to learn it, and, like, are still telling people that they're fine, and they're supposed to just gradually burn out. And, like, your hormones are designed to go down, and just let them 90 00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:44.169 Beauty By Dr. Kay: So, how do you talk to women about hormones these days? How do you frame the risks and benefits, timing, balance, and why we should do it? 91 00:11:44.890 --> 00:12:04.839 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I think it's a very broad conversation, you know, in fact, two of my patients that I saw yesterday had been told that, you know, by their OBGYN, oh, your labs are fine, you know, every woman goes through it, and you're going to be okay, without really giving the recommendation or resource of possible use of HRT. You know, I think as a HRT, 92 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:24.819 Sanctum Med + Wellness: advocate when I think of hormone replacement therapy, is I'm not forcing it on you. What I do want you to appreciate is the information education behind it, so that you can make the best decision for yourself, whatever that is. That's what I'll support. But in that, I want to give you the best information around there, rather than just saying, you don't need it. 93 00:12:25.820 --> 00:12:41.899 Sanctum Med + Wellness: In that framework, I think that a lot of women now come in with hesitation. You know, the WHI study, which was 20 years ago, really kind of gave that bad PR press moment that has lived for 20 years, and we're trying to unravel that now. 94 00:12:41.970 --> 00:12:49.240 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So there is a lot of confusion, hesitation for good reason, and concern. What I really think women 95 00:12:49.740 --> 00:13:01.430 Sanctum Med + Wellness: should walk away with when… after they speak to me, and a lot of, you know, my menopause colleagues who fundamentally are here to educate women on it, is that there is risk with everything. So… 96 00:13:01.470 --> 00:13:20.870 Sanctum Med + Wellness: When we assign risk, risk is very personalized, but risk also includes what is the level of risk that comes with that, based on your medical history, based on, you know, maybe medications that you're taking, based on your age and when you start. 97 00:13:20.870 --> 00:13:22.690 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But all of that together. 98 00:13:22.690 --> 00:13:38.580 Sanctum Med + Wellness: all assigns a different risk category for everybody, and even in that, someone who might have a higher risk profile than someone else might choose to do hormones versus someone who has a lower risk profile and decides that that's what they don't want for themselves. Either one of those is not wrong. 99 00:13:38.860 --> 00:13:53.649 Sanctum Med + Wellness: that's what we should be counseling people in all aspects of medicine. And so I think, when I think of women's health and the bad, you know, kind of rep that, you know, HRT got, I was like, why do we like to frighten women like this? 100 00:13:53.870 --> 00:13:54.260 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Like… 101 00:13:54.270 --> 00:13:56.139 Sanctum Med + Wellness: What is this that… 102 00:13:56.340 --> 00:14:04.180 Sanctum Med + Wellness: we feel that the risk of HRT, which we now know, the benefits from it, completely outweigh the risks. 103 00:14:04.380 --> 00:14:22.380 Sanctum Med + Wellness: how did we get on that… that avenue and that path? That's what maybe frustrates me the most, especially when I see women coming in who are suffering, and I'm like, you don't have to do this, and here is a better way to navigate through that. But still, the mind holds on to that. 104 00:14:22.500 --> 00:14:30.119 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Risk of something that's very minimal to being the bigger thing that they would 105 00:14:30.250 --> 00:14:34.420 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Hold on to than taking care of themselves in those moments. 106 00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:39.779 Beauty By Dr. Kay: It's almost like hormones have been so attached, estrogen, breast cancer, like. 107 00:14:39.780 --> 00:14:40.590 Sanctum Med + Wellness: They go hand in hand. 108 00:14:40.590 --> 00:14:50.290 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And then, I think people just have to let go of that notion, because actually the percentages of breast cancer conversions are extremely, extremely small. 109 00:14:50.470 --> 00:14:51.140 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And in… 110 00:14:51.140 --> 00:15:00.189 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Even in that study, it was not significant, you know, from a pure statistical standpoint, you know, not everyone knows statistics or loves statistics, but 111 00:15:00.300 --> 00:15:11.630 Sanctum Med + Wellness: The fact that it wasn't significant, and it wasn't even due to estrogen, but the whole rumor mill asserted that it was estrogen causes breast cancer is just like… 112 00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:13.600 Sanctum Med + Wellness: How did we get there? 113 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:30.100 Beauty By Dr. Kay: It's gonna be so hard to reverse that notion. I even still am seeing patients who are just like, well, my levels were normal. I'm like, yeah, your doctor says you're 60, you have hormones of a 60-year-old, is that optimal? Like, don't you want to have, like, a slightly better hormone function? 114 00:15:30.260 --> 00:15:30.740 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I think… 115 00:15:30.740 --> 00:15:37.839 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Even now, I'm still hearing this dialogue from women that, like, well, I've been through menopause, so I don't need hormones anymore. And, like. 116 00:15:38.470 --> 00:15:55.259 Beauty By Dr. Kay: hear them getting the conversation about dementia, preventing cardiovascular risk improvements, and, like, the actual night sweats is one thing, but, like, the long-term estrogen use for bone density, et cetera, is so important. How do you frame that for patients? 117 00:15:55.810 --> 00:16:06.219 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I say, how do you want to show up for yourself in your 70s, 80s, and 90s, right? If we were able to forecast or make choice now, in midlife. 118 00:16:06.910 --> 00:16:21.000 Sanctum Med + Wellness: to what we want to do then, then this is where we get to make some of those decisions, right now. Because for me to wait till you're 70, 80, and 90, doing a DEXA scan at 65, when you've been maybe 20 plus years without estrogen. 119 00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:35.160 Sanctum Med + Wellness: is not a setup for success, it's actually a setup for failure. And so, I say, you get to choose that. And on what you choose, as far as outcomes, and what you expect for yourself, and what you want for yourself, let's build that now. 120 00:16:35.250 --> 00:16:52.210 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And then we can go back to the building blocks of how do we get that outcome that you just mentioned that you want for yourself? Because then you're putting it back into the hands of the women to advocate for themselves by giving them choice. But we typically don't allow women to do that. 121 00:16:52.350 --> 00:17:02.439 Sanctum Med + Wellness: When it comes to choice, their body, their health, their outcomes, we want to more so dictate what it should be, and that really hasn't gotten us. 122 00:17:02.820 --> 00:17:07.329 Sanctum Med + Wellness: That really hasn't gotten us very, far, you know, in the past. 123 00:17:07.990 --> 00:17:14.389 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Well, I think your book is gonna inspire a lot of women. What message do you most want women to take from that book? 124 00:17:14.390 --> 00:17:24.899 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I think, you know, when I wrote it was… I wanted it to be a love letter to all the patients and women I had seen over the years, and even to myself, being in perimenopause is… 125 00:17:25.050 --> 00:17:44.529 Sanctum Med + Wellness: How do I want to frame this stage of my life in a way that feels not prescriptive, it feels valuable, it feels like it flows, because everything really is connected, whether that's your daily habits of nutrition, exercise, sex life. 126 00:17:44.860 --> 00:17:52.219 Sanctum Med + Wellness: What else? I think hormones are obviously a part of that, but it's never just one thing that 127 00:17:52.530 --> 00:18:06.470 Sanctum Med + Wellness: you get the, you know, the big effect. It's everything together, and if that… the conversation could reside there in a way that feels comforting and allows people to settle in themselves. 128 00:18:06.540 --> 00:18:14.199 Sanctum Med + Wellness: That's what I think my biggest message is, is for women, is to explore themselves through this journey in a way that feels inviting. 129 00:18:14.900 --> 00:18:15.870 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Amazing. 130 00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:24.220 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Let's switch gears and talk a little about HERS, your Chief Medical Officer at HERS. You guys have all heard of HIMS and HERS. 131 00:18:24.220 --> 00:18:38.579 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And what is going to be their big focus? I know that GLP-1s have revolutionized medicine, wellness, and have so many health benefits. Are you guys really highly focused on GLPs? Is it more about 132 00:18:38.580 --> 00:18:40.420 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Hormones? Is it a little bit of both? 133 00:18:40.980 --> 00:18:57.000 Sanctum Med + Wellness: It's a little bit of both, but as you know, GOPs really have, like, kind of stolen the spotlight, globally, and that is what really helped define, especially the hers side of the business, you know, hymns and hers, is that women really… 134 00:18:57.070 --> 00:19:07.330 Sanctum Med + Wellness: In frustration when it comes to not necessarily always severe weight loss, but just sometimes even weight management, or the ability to, get their weight 135 00:19:07.450 --> 00:19:19.730 Sanctum Med + Wellness: loss kick-started into something that they could see themselves continuing and maintaining, GLPs really became that platform that people needed. 136 00:19:19.940 --> 00:19:36.019 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And quite frankly, what we did see very early on was a lot of gatekeeping, you know, from the pharmaceutical industry and insurance model of who was allowed to access it versus not. And that's one fundamental, I think, you know, hymns and hers, is that we really want to reach 137 00:19:36.040 --> 00:19:46.079 Sanctum Med + Wellness: People who don't have access, who may not have the wherewall to get the same service that they would through insurance and hospital services. 138 00:19:46.110 --> 00:19:50.860 Sanctum Med + Wellness: and be able to do that. And so that's what we were able to do in a very… 139 00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:56.990 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Safe, efficacious, and clinical-driven platform. 140 00:19:57.150 --> 00:20:08.550 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And so as a telehealth, you know, industry, that's what kind of put us on the stage as well, GLPs, and in that was like, okay, well, women really want 141 00:20:08.830 --> 00:20:13.569 Sanctum Med + Wellness: their health taken care of. What else can we add value to? 142 00:20:13.780 --> 00:20:28.599 Sanctum Med + Wellness: on the platform, and that's when we were, like, perimenopause and menopause, and so we launched that, you know, in October of 2024, and we just continue to keep building our verticals by listening to women, first of all, and meeting them where they need to be met. 143 00:20:29.380 --> 00:20:32.509 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Amazing. So, it's in all 50 states. 144 00:20:32.510 --> 00:20:32.900 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Okay. 145 00:20:32.900 --> 00:20:38.619 Beauty By Dr. Kay: get prescriptions for hormones through their insurance? Is it insurance-based? 146 00:20:38.620 --> 00:20:41.570 Sanctum Med + Wellness: It is not, and that, again, is… 147 00:20:41.660 --> 00:20:47.549 Sanctum Med + Wellness: a parameter that is very different to the mindset of patients, right? Because patients 148 00:20:47.610 --> 00:21:02.740 Sanctum Med + Wellness: feel that insurance is going to manage everything, take care of everything, and we know quite differently that that's not the case. And so that's what we were seeking when I mentioned the gatekeeping of certain, you know, medications, specifically with GLPs, but also hormones as well. 149 00:21:02.750 --> 00:21:14.089 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And so, we were able to break that barrier by just being like, you… anyone, whether you have insurance or not, can access us, and can access what we have as a resource. 150 00:21:14.670 --> 00:21:27.879 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's so important. I've seen so many people who have obesity, they have an elevated BMI, they have high cholesterol, but they can't qualify through their insurance plans to get GLPs, so it's quite restrictive, unnecessarily so, I think. 151 00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:28.500 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Correct. 152 00:21:28.500 --> 00:21:36.650 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Especially given that you're going to get so much dollar value back in revenue saved from chronic long-term illness, it makes no sense at all. 153 00:21:36.820 --> 00:21:45.209 Beauty By Dr. Kay: But, are you guys doing microdosing for GLPs? Curious if you're doing, like, the longevity side of things and anti-inflammatory benefits. 154 00:21:45.390 --> 00:22:05.199 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, we actually, I believe it was a month and a half to two months ago, started our microdosing availability of the medication, which, again, we are seeing, you know, staggering numbers, because it has to do… in two different capacities of, yes, there's a longevity aspect. 155 00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:15.189 Sanctum Med + Wellness: of, you know, microdosing GLPs. But the other part of that is, for people who want to maintain weight, not necessarily have weight loss, can use the microdosing 156 00:22:15.290 --> 00:22:23.880 Sanctum Med + Wellness: capability in that way. And so, what I do think… what we soon will see is the… 157 00:22:24.020 --> 00:22:35.199 Sanctum Med + Wellness: studies and evidence behind the true benefits and value of GLPs, and what we… you and I, clearly know we've seen now in brain health, cardiovascular health. 158 00:22:35.280 --> 00:22:50.049 Sanctum Med + Wellness: certain cancers, that was actually, discussed the other day. So, this is where we are going with GLPs. They will… I think they will only see advancements in GLPs, so yeah, that microdosing has… was definitely needed. 159 00:22:50.530 --> 00:22:54.480 Sanctum Med + Wellness: We all, again, see what's needed, see where the gap is, and then fill in the gap. 160 00:22:54.920 --> 00:23:01.750 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Well, consumers are so interested in peptides these days. Are you guys starting to close that gap? Are you… 161 00:23:01.860 --> 00:23:03.529 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Prescribing any peptides? 162 00:23:04.070 --> 00:23:28.549 Sanctum Med + Wellness: No, not currently. Obviously, GLP is a peptide, but when we look at peptides for longevity, you know, there's always a fine line between what is approved, obviously, with FDA, and what we do see, you know, in the safety side of peptides, what's been researched, what's been not, what still is in research kind of mode, but then also how it's sourced. What we have seen in the peptide world is peptides have been around forever. 163 00:23:28.550 --> 00:23:33.079 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I think people think it's new, but it, you know, hasn't really been given the… 164 00:23:33.080 --> 00:23:51.719 Sanctum Med + Wellness: the credibility that it probably deserves as far as number and research, but then there are a lot of people who irresponsibly use it, right? So we have to make sure that, one, when we look at FDA approval, safety and studies, and then also how it's sourced, and kind of pushing away from 165 00:23:51.720 --> 00:24:03.590 Sanctum Med + Wellness: the people who don't use it responsibly to make sure that we bring in a responsible version of that. So, I mean, I think the idea is there. We'll see, probably in the near future. 166 00:24:03.710 --> 00:24:10.130 Sanctum Med + Wellness: As regulation, changes for peptides, what that will mean for us as a company? 167 00:24:10.740 --> 00:24:16.429 Beauty By Dr. Kay: I think, yeah, people are asking, and potentially there are some peptides that are 168 00:24:16.740 --> 00:24:24.950 Beauty By Dr. Kay: safer, or been used for longer times, that maybe those can start to get utilized, but I'm with you, I think that the consumer safety should come first. 169 00:24:25.450 --> 00:24:30.610 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Like, the purity sourcing, like, they've done some studies that show that 170 00:24:30.750 --> 00:24:44.880 Beauty By Dr. Kay: When they pull, like, 20 different peptides on the market, and they find that there's inactive ingredients in the vast majority of them, like, there's no actives in these. You're buying, like, sterile… sterile water. Hopefully it's sterile, because sometimes there's endotoxins in it. 171 00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:45.700 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Exactly. 172 00:24:45.700 --> 00:24:55.229 Beauty By Dr. Kay: So I think the consumer has to be extremely safe, and even as a physician, I would find it hard to go and find an online vendor of peptides that I would trust. 173 00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:56.210 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Correct. 174 00:24:56.210 --> 00:25:09.150 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And I have seen so many patients using research grade, and clearly the bottles are labeled for research use only, and, like, I just have a lot of qualms about not knowing the exact ingredients in everything I put in my body. 175 00:25:09.530 --> 00:25:16.450 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I… it's a funny story that you just said that this past week is… is people who, you know, will… 176 00:25:16.450 --> 00:25:29.609 Sanctum Med + Wellness: you know, try to seek counsel or advice or opinion from me, you know, as a physician, and they'll show me what they're using, and I'm like, that clearly just says research grade only. Like, this is… this is not a thing. 177 00:25:29.610 --> 00:25:30.870 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Elaborate. 178 00:25:30.870 --> 00:25:37.800 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I'm not discussing that with you, because that's, at your own risk, what you would like to do. I'm not taking part in that, so it's funny that you said that. 179 00:25:37.800 --> 00:25:51.700 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Yeah, it's… I honestly, these days, when I take a medical history, I'm asking every patient what… I don't even think that otherwise, I just say, what peptides are you on? And, like, 70% of the time, they'll give me a little list, and I'm like. 180 00:25:51.700 --> 00:25:52.170 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, that's true. 181 00:25:52.170 --> 00:26:08.519 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Shocking! GLPs are one thing, but they list these peptides that I have not even heard of that they bought from their gym bro, you know, and it's just kind of interesting. So that's part of my every patient's history. Have you… are you on a GLP, and what peptides are you on right now? 182 00:26:08.520 --> 00:26:09.719 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, exactly. 183 00:26:09.720 --> 00:26:17.740 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Well, what's one of the things that you would want to change about midlife and how to thrive in midlife? 184 00:26:18.550 --> 00:26:24.590 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I think one of the things that I would want to change, and hopefully can change, you know, as I do this work. 185 00:26:24.590 --> 00:26:39.140 Sanctum Med + Wellness: is for women to feel comfort in midlife, but really, I call it the magic of midlife, because what you do see is, we said it, you know, a little briefly before, is in our 70s, 80s, and 90s. 186 00:26:39.210 --> 00:26:47.150 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Is, really, midlife is where we can fine-tune that, and really change what we, 187 00:26:48.230 --> 00:26:53.739 Sanctum Med + Wellness: how we approach that. You know, think of you and I, and think of our mothers and their mothers before as 188 00:26:53.910 --> 00:27:05.419 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Nothing was really discussed, approached, done. Then you get to those ages, and you see a very sharp decline, specifically for women and their health. But we can do that differently if we kind of 189 00:27:05.420 --> 00:27:20.280 Sanctum Med + Wellness: front load with, whether that's hormones, change in our nutrition, how we fuel our body, movement, and exercise when we think of strength training. So even those small little changes incrementally in our midlife. 190 00:27:20.280 --> 00:27:36.060 Sanctum Med + Wellness: can completely, vastly change our 70s, 80s, and 90s. So, the magic of midlife, I think, is really important for me to emphasize to women that in midlife, just granted, midlife, our life expectancy is 80, so midlife is, what, 40. 191 00:27:36.060 --> 00:27:42.510 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So, even as early as latter 30s, 40 into 55 is, like, the 15-year time frame. 192 00:27:42.790 --> 00:27:49.780 Sanctum Med + Wellness: In where just consistent changes in daily habits can really get us great benefit 20 to 30 years later. 193 00:27:50.590 --> 00:27:57.250 Beauty By Dr. Kay: So, at age 35, what's, something that every woman should start doing for her future self? 194 00:27:59.080 --> 00:28:04.939 Sanctum Med + Wellness: creating… A template. Creating, kind of, like, just even in thoughts. 195 00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:18.519 Sanctum Med + Wellness: what in the next 5 to 10 years, right? We do that with life goals, financial goals, but we don't always do that with our health, is in the next 5 to 10 years, what do I want to work towards? 196 00:28:18.840 --> 00:28:32.829 Sanctum Med + Wellness: That I can get really big gain from. And, you know, that, you know, that cheesy saying, health is your wealth, but in some sort of truthness, if you can live to 100, but if you really don't have your health. 197 00:28:32.980 --> 00:28:35.199 Sanctum Med + Wellness: You really don't have much. 198 00:28:35.520 --> 00:28:52.409 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So, that's what I would say is starting those conversations, even in your head, and, you know, even talking to your doctor in that way of, like, okay, I know I'm 37, 38, but when I'm 48, or when I'm 46, this is what I'm kind of conceptualizing for myself and my health. 199 00:28:52.670 --> 00:29:10.550 Sanctum Med + Wellness: what can we build from now to get me there? Because everyone wants the overnight fix, right? I mean, even myself, as I say that. That's kind of human nature, but we also live in a society that, like, pushes that on us very heavily. You and I know our bodies, just in medicine, just from a biological standpoint, does not work that way. 200 00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:23.330 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So, for me to expect that I'm gonna do one big move, and it's gonna change overnight, and I'm gonna maintain that habit, and I'm gonna change my life forever, said no whenever. We all think it. 201 00:29:23.860 --> 00:29:40.820 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's very true, like, I mean, I think I have some basic goals. This year, I want to really master push-ups, and like, after that, I get that upper body strength, I want to do a pull-up. I've never done a pull-up my whole entire life, I should try to do that, right? 202 00:29:40.820 --> 00:29:45.789 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I mean, like, even that, like, just that alone is, like, start there. 203 00:29:46.010 --> 00:30:00.659 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Yeah, honestly. But I think there are metrics that we can do. I wish that modern healthcare incorporated those, so if there were some tests or studies that you could do early on in your 40s. 204 00:30:01.100 --> 00:30:08.590 Beauty By Dr. Kay: to predict and guide you in your trans… you know, into later life, what would you do right now? I know DEXA scan is a great one. 205 00:30:08.590 --> 00:30:26.619 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yep, I was gonna say DEXA scan is great, so you have a starting point, right? We don't want to wait till you're 65 and your bones are already taking a hit to being like, yeah, now I think I'm gonna do something. The other thing is metabolic health. Metabolic health is our engine for, again, how we live our lives now, but what it can do for us later, so… 206 00:30:26.620 --> 00:30:47.700 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Labs. Like, very easy labs that can help as your hemoglobin A1C, see where you are with, you know, glucose metabolism. Fasting insulin really tells us how our body is good with insulin and glucose, but also shows us, like, chronic inflammation. And then, cardiovascular disease is still the number one killer of women. 207 00:30:47.700 --> 00:30:48.350 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Right. 208 00:30:48.350 --> 00:30:56.089 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Globally. And men as well, but for women, one of the downfalls as we go through menopause and estrogen, which is cardioprotective, is lost. 209 00:30:56.120 --> 00:31:07.099 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But we do have better testing now to kind of see where we are. Again, don't wait for the symptom, but we have really good cardiovascular biomarkers, such as your APOB and your 210 00:31:07.100 --> 00:31:15.309 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Little protein, your lipoprotein little a, your, you know, high sensitive, CRP, homocysteine. 211 00:31:15.310 --> 00:31:29.799 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So, going to a provider that can understand, like, the background of what it looks like genetically, but then also what you're contributing to your health cardiovascular-wise, is probably really important, in addition to metabolic health with insulin and glucose. 212 00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.050 Beauty By Dr. Kay: I think so, and maybe a calcium scan would be good. 213 00:31:33.270 --> 00:31:35.449 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, I like calcium scans. 214 00:31:35.710 --> 00:31:47.950 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But I'm like, let's do the fundamentals first, and then push you, because there's different types of calcium, you know, scores or testing that I think, depending on where the person is, might be better, you know. 215 00:31:48.110 --> 00:32:05.850 Sanctum Med + Wellness: push towards, but that's, like, that next level that I think everyone, you know, should get, but let's just see where you even are. And I think we don't do a great job at screening in medicine. We are very disease-prone. Wait till you have it, then we'll fix it. 216 00:32:06.370 --> 00:32:14.529 Beauty By Dr. Kay: It's so true, because even on… you're going for your physical, you get your labs, and the doctor's like, you're fine, you're not going to die this year. You know. 217 00:32:14.530 --> 00:32:15.990 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But when you are… 218 00:32:16.430 --> 00:32:30.860 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Right? But come back when you have a problem. But they don't actually say that, like, there's some predictive tests we can do, and there's some trajectory of aging things, that if we worked on this now, the way you age is going to be better, so it's almost up to the consumer to… 219 00:32:31.630 --> 00:32:40.850 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Ask for those tests, or think about those pathways, and, like, are you doing any testing for biologic age testing versus chronologic age testing? 220 00:32:40.850 --> 00:32:55.809 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I do. I… there's a company that looks at glycans, and glycans really are kind of looking at how our cells are aging, what inflammation is adding to that aging, you know, if you want to use the term inflaging. 221 00:32:55.810 --> 00:33:05.140 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And that kind of looks at your chronological age versus kind of, like, what your body age is. And I think those are really good motivational tests 222 00:33:05.140 --> 00:33:09.770 Sanctum Med + Wellness: That can help people say, oh my god, you know, people love seeing numbers, you know, if you're 223 00:33:09.820 --> 00:33:20.519 Sanctum Med + Wellness: 45, but your labs show that you're 37 versus someone who comes back as 52. Like, those are really good ways to motivate yourself, and I really like them. 224 00:33:21.040 --> 00:33:25.730 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Yeah, I think that's super interesting, all of the advanced testing that we do, and… 225 00:33:25.870 --> 00:33:34.270 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Talk a little about the microbiome changes that we go through, for example, in menopause. Like, everything changes inside and out. 226 00:33:34.720 --> 00:33:35.720 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Those are my partner. 227 00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:39.220 Beauty By Dr. Kay: have changed, do you recommend certain things? Supplements? 228 00:33:39.220 --> 00:33:46.590 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, I'm… I'm… those traditional doctors that still feel that supplements can be really helpful. 229 00:33:47.620 --> 00:33:57.040 Sanctum Med + Wellness: In what you're able to… Not wait till it's depleted, but keep that storage level, or that reserve. 230 00:33:59.650 --> 00:34:07.449 Sanctum Med + Wellness: stocked, right? It's kind of like a storage facility. We don't want all the product to be gone before we'll call in 231 00:34:07.590 --> 00:34:15.910 Sanctum Med + Wellness: for more product, we want to keep a really good tally on what's decreasing, and keeping that at base. So, for example, vitamin D, 232 00:34:16.350 --> 00:34:30.299 Sanctum Med + Wellness: looking at your vitamin B12 complex, and then supplements like creatine. Creatine really helps with muscle recovery, which we lose, you know, 1-3% per decade at the age of 35. 233 00:34:30.500 --> 00:34:38.959 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And that naturally starts to significantly decrease with menopause, loss of estrogen and testosterone. So, I think that… 234 00:34:39.199 --> 00:34:54.669 Sanctum Med + Wellness: supplements can be tricky, because people then want to do 18 million supplements, and I'm like, let's fine-tune that, like, who are you, right? And then, what are you gonna… I always say, keep it to, like, top 3 or 4, because we can change out a few here or there. 235 00:34:54.980 --> 00:35:10.940 Sanctum Med + Wellness: But when people get, like, overwhelmed by it, again, it's one of those… I'm very big about small changes consistency. And if you can keep four, you know, that you can do daily, and then if you're doing really well in one area, we can switch that out to something else. 236 00:35:11.040 --> 00:35:25.099 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And that's how we should be attending to our health, is just keep, like, a really good monitor on it, and seeing when the needle's moving too, you know, too far or too left, and trying to just keep that… that flow. 237 00:35:26.370 --> 00:35:29.860 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Do you… are you on some supplements? Do you want to share your supplements? 238 00:35:29.860 --> 00:35:32.529 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, I'll send that. My supplement stack. 239 00:35:32.700 --> 00:35:36.810 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I… use vitamin D, because mine is low. 240 00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:38.880 Sanctum Med + Wellness: So… 241 00:35:39.390 --> 00:35:57.050 Sanctum Med + Wellness: one for women, that typically goes down, but for Black women, you know, that usually is lower, so I take vitamin D. I do take creatine, because as I'm strength training, I want to help, you know, my muscles… my muscle cells to be able to build better, stronger. 242 00:35:57.070 --> 00:35:59.979 Beauty By Dr. Kay: How many… is it grams or milligrams? How many… 243 00:35:59.980 --> 00:36:12.290 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah, so it's usually grams, so I do 5 grams. I have tried occasionally to go up to 10. When we get to 10, that's where we start to see some benefit for brain health, right? So for cognition. And so… 244 00:36:12.620 --> 00:36:27.449 Sanctum Med + Wellness: my goal is to get there, 10 to 15. And then, also, I love, obviously, hormones. And, you know, for hormones, I am on hormone replacement therapy, and I'm not even menopausal. You know, I, one, started to have changes in, like. 245 00:36:27.820 --> 00:36:37.669 Sanctum Med + Wellness: brain health, so, like, cognition, you know, brain fog, multitasking, kind of those things started to waver, so I started on testosterone first. 246 00:36:37.970 --> 00:36:56.000 Sanctum Med + Wellness: And then, even though I know I have estrogen, because I'm perimenopausal, I was like, well, I know the benefits of estrogen, I'm gonna start on estrogen as well. And so, I'm on estrogen. I do have an IUD, so that's my form of progesterone to counteract estrogen, but at some point I will convert to… 247 00:36:56.180 --> 00:37:00.249 Sanctum Med + Wellness: another type of progesterone when I'm menopausal, yeah. 248 00:37:00.250 --> 00:37:10.079 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's a great stack. I have a couple rapid-fire questions for you. Yes. Alright, what's one lab marker women should know in their bodies? 249 00:37:10.470 --> 00:37:11.880 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Hemoglobin A1C. 250 00:37:12.060 --> 00:37:15.500 Beauty By Dr. Kay: It's a good one. One symptom women should not ignore. 251 00:37:16.010 --> 00:37:21.469 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Hot flashes, the more severe they are, has been shown to increase in dementia later on in life. 252 00:37:21.780 --> 00:37:24.720 Beauty By Dr. Kay: One favorite habit that supports aging better. 253 00:37:25.270 --> 00:37:27.240 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Meditation and mindfulness. 254 00:37:27.490 --> 00:37:32.270 Beauty By Dr. Kay: True. One supplement or nutrient that you wouldn't live without? 255 00:37:35.650 --> 00:37:38.169 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Or that you… need every day. 256 00:37:40.540 --> 00:37:43.869 Sanctum Med + Wellness: A supplement. Sunshine and oxygen. 257 00:37:44.750 --> 00:37:48.199 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's… that's a nutrient right there. 258 00:37:48.390 --> 00:37:54.170 Beauty By Dr. Kay: I love it. I think those are such great questions. Are you a coffee or tea person? 259 00:37:54.170 --> 00:38:01.200 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Definitely coffee, but I am now a new… not new, Reclaimed tea drinker at night. 260 00:38:01.540 --> 00:38:04.740 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Oh, good! Yeah. Yoga or running? 261 00:38:05.300 --> 00:38:11.080 Sanctum Med + Wellness: That's hard, but yoga, because you get physical benefit as well as mental benefit from it. 262 00:38:11.080 --> 00:38:16.110 Beauty By Dr. Kay: So true, that's so true. And then last book that you read… 263 00:38:17.200 --> 00:38:20.500 Sanctum Med + Wellness: I'm a very big, young pueblo. 264 00:38:21.330 --> 00:38:31.660 Sanctum Med + Wellness: reader, and he has a bunch of books, but his last one that I read was… Moving forward. 265 00:38:32.300 --> 00:38:34.839 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Wow, okay, I'll have to check that one out. 266 00:38:34.840 --> 00:38:35.240 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Yeah. 267 00:38:35.240 --> 00:38:37.220 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Who inspires you lately? 268 00:38:37.220 --> 00:38:39.410 Sanctum Med + Wellness: Mmm… my kids. 269 00:38:40.250 --> 00:38:41.559 Sanctum Med + Wellness: My two little boys. 270 00:38:41.890 --> 00:38:43.369 Beauty By Dr. Kay: Good, I love that. 271 00:38:43.560 --> 00:38:45.970 Beauty By Dr. Kay: That's, that's, gives you your strength. 272 00:38:46.240 --> 00:38:49.460 Sanctum Med + Wellness: It does.

Well, I hope… I love that you've created this little mini-universe for people to understand, going from a society that ignored and didn't talk about women's issues, and, like, just threw them under the rug, to now a situation where it's… it should be acknowledged as part of life, it's like our own version of puberty that we're going through, and then… 278 00:39:38.410 --> 00:39:49.180 Beauty By Dr. Kay: And there's ways to optimize it. Now, we have to push for more research. We do.
