Let’s Talk About Estrogen and Weight Gain

Dr. Brendan McCarthy

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy! Estrogen has a host of important health benefits. The sex hormone plays a critical role in reproductive health, sexual development, muscle development, and bone strength. In women, it also helps with menstrual cycle regulation and benefits the urinary tract, reproductive tract, breast tissue and among many other health benefits. One of the side effects or risks some people worry about though is when taking estrogen is whether it contributes to weight gain or not. Let's talk about it.

Dr. Brendan McCarthy founded Protea Medical Center in 2002. While he’s been the chief medical officer, Protea has grown and evolved into a dynamic medical center serving the Valley and Central Arizona. A nationally recognized as an expert in hormone replacement therapy, Dr McCarthy s the only instructor in the nation who teaches BioHRT on live patients. Physicians travel to Arizona to take his course and integrate it into their own practices. Besides hormone replacement therapy, Dr. McCarthy has spoken nationally and locally before physicians on topics such as weight loss, infertility, nutritional therapy and more.
