EP 40 is now live and we welcome Supplement Needs formulator, educator and pharmacologist @deanstm on the podcast.
We have been dying to open up the floor for you all, to discuss the impact this sport can have on your hormonal health and fertility and we could think of no one better than Dean to throw ours, and more importantly our listeners, questions out for open discussion.
In this episode we discuss:
- What is meant by hormonal replacement therapy, what is it’s objective and how do the mechanics differ between male and female athletes;
- What are the impacts of competing on overall hormonal health, what can we come to expect by pushing our bodies to this extreme;
- Considerations prior to the introduction of hormone replacement; knee jerk reactions and common mistakes when it comes to introducing replacement therapies;
- The importance and role of blood work and how this can help make educated and informed decisions;
- Fertility and the impact of prolonged exposure to the sport, what considerations need to be made if having a family is a long term goal;
- Femtest, what is its role and why are we seeing a rise in administrations to female athletes;
- Performance enhancement and hormonal implications, what differs when managing an enhanced athlete’s health, vs an athlete that competes naturally;
And so much more.
This episode is by no means meant to be prescriptive and all decisions in relation to the introduction of any therapy or performance enhancement shouldn’t be made without consultation with a registered medical professional and with appropriate education around the topic, your coach.
An incredibly valuable conversation and one we hope will equip our listeners with the tools to ask pertinent questions when it comes to their health in the sport.
