  • S3 Ep150: Managing Menopause When Cancer is a Concern with Dr. Mindy Goldman
    Oct 17 2024
    Managing menopause in the face of cancer can be complicated. Many women are made to think that they should just be grateful to be alive and not complain about their all day all night hot flashes, brain fog and sex that is excruciatingly painful. Many oncologists are not experts when it comes to menopause or sexual function and don’t bring it up or give information that isn’t accurate. Many women aren’t aware that hormone therapy may be safe, and if it’s not, that there are non-hormonal options to solve virtually every problem. In this Q and A episode I am joined by Dr. Mindy Goldman, the Director of the Gynecology Center for Cancer Survivors and At-Risk Women at UCSF and the Chief Clinical Officer at Midi Health. • Options to treat vaginal dryness when taking an aromatase inhibitor • Options to prevent bone loss if estrogen is not an option • Using testosterone to help libido with a breast cancer diagnosis • If it is OK to take hormone therapy with an ER negative breast cancer • If it is OK to take hormone therapy with a recent or remote diagnosis of an ER positive breast cancer • Hormone therapy with endometrial (uterine cancer) • Hormone therapy post lung cancer • If estrogen will decrease the risk of colon cancer if there is a genetic pre-disposition such as Lynch syndrome • If someone is at risk of breast cancer, are some forms of hormone therapy better to use than others • Why you are asked about estrogen use when you have a mammogram • Is it safe to use hormone therapy with a BRCA mutation • Should a hysterectomy be performed along with ovary removal with ovary and tube removal • If radiation from a mammogram increasesthe risk of getting breast cancer? • If it is safe to use hormone therapy with dense breasts • And much more… Mindy Goldman MD JoinMidi.com Dr. Goldman is the Chief Clincial Officer at Midi Health and a Clinical Professor Emeritus in the department of OB/GYN at UCSF, where she is also the Director of the Gynecology Center for Cancer Survivors and At-Risk Women.
