In this video, Dr. Doug breaks down the research on estradiol levels and how hormone therapy can influence bone density. He reviews clinical data comparing different estradiol dosing strategies and explains why hormone needs vary from woman to woman. The discussion also explores whether adding testosterone provides additional benefit for bone health. Most importantly, he highlights why optimizing hormones must be individualized rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10321913/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24905063/🦴 Stronger Bones.

In this video, Dr. Doug reviews the newly published BONEMORE randomized trial comparing osteogenic loading (OsteoStrong, bioDensity) to a traditional exercise program for bone health. He breaks down the study results, which showed no meaningful differences in bone density, bone turnover markers, or bone strength after nine months. Dr. Doug also highlights several design flaws in the study and explains why better research is still needed to determine who may truly benefit from osteogenic loading.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41748967/🦴 Stronger Bones.

This episode tackles a common belief that hormone therapy and osteoporosis medications should not be used together. Dr. Doug reviews available research showing that hormones and bone drugs often work synergistically, supporting bone metabolism rather than interfering with treatment. He explains how different classes of medications interact with estrogen and progesterone, and why treatment decisions should focus on improving overall bone biology and reducing fracture risk.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40363988/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16418784/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10487668/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10690882/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932272/🦴 Stronger Bones.

In this video, Dr. Doug breaks down the most powerful tool for monitoring bone health beyond a DEXA scan: bone turnover markers. He explains how CTX and P1NP reflect real-time bone breakdown and building, and how using a simple ratio can show whether you’re trending anabolic or losing bone. Through drug trials and diet research, he demonstrates how these markers predict outcomes long before imaging changes. The goal is faster, smarter decision-making so you can protect and potentially improve bone density with confidence.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27641143/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38544922/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25827453/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30635696/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39791502/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39657000/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4425157/🦴 Stronger Bones.
