This Is Why Women Are Still Losing Bone on Hormones—And No One’s Talking About It | Dr. Nayan Patel
Did you know that even on hormone replacement therapy, many women are still losing bone? I hear it all the time—“But I’m on BHRT…why are my bones still getting weaker?” And that’s exactly what we’re diving into today on the Stronger Bones Lifestyle podcast. I’m so excited to share this powerful episode with you because we’re pulling back the curtain on hormone therapy and giving you real, practical answers.
I’m joined by Dr. Nayan Patel, a compounding pharmacist who’s trained over 5,000 physicians across the country on how to properly prescribe bioidentical hormones. We break down what most doctors get wrong about estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—and how the way you take your hormones matters just as much as what you take. You’ll learn why the right dose, delivery method, and hormone balance are essential for bone protection, and how lifestyle is still the foundation no matter what you’re prescribed. Dr. Patel shares so much wisdom in this conversation—so grab a cup of tea and settle in, you’re going to want to take notes!
Key Takeaways
The Role of Estrogen – Estrogen levels must be between 60–110 to effectively protect bones and prevent fractures.
Progesterone’s Dual Benefit – Oral progesterone supports bone formation and improves sleep and emotional balance.
Testosterone’s Impact – Testosterone is key for building muscle mass that supports and stabilizes aging bones.
Why Hormone Delivery Matters – Applying creams to the inner labia ensures better absorption and fewer side effects than wrist or oral routes.
Delayed BHRT Can Still Help – Women 10+ years post-menopause can start BHRT safely when guided by a knowledgeable provider.
Understanding Hormone Balance – Feeling your best is the true marker of hormonal balance—not just lab numbers.
Cancer History and Hormones – BHRT may not be safe for those with recent estrogen-sensitive cancers; timing and monitoring are critical.
Lifestyle is 70% of the Solution – Managing stress, eating nutrient-dense foods, sleeping well, and moving intentionally are the true drivers of bone strength.
