Women with ADHD are losing almost nine years of life.

That number comes from a UK study of diagnosed adults, and the gap was bigger for women than men. Then this month two more studies landed. One pooled 19 studies and nearly 16 million people and tied ADHD to about 70% higher risk of dying early. The other followed 187,000 adults over 50 and found more than four times the risk of memory problems or dementia.

Before anybody panics, more than 93 out of 100 people with ADHD in that dementia study never developed it. These are links, not destiny. And people who were treated had about 25% lower risk of dying early.

ADHD isn’t just a focus problem. It’s a whole-body condition and it deserves to be treated like one.

Part 1 of 3. Part 2 tomorrow is why it hits women hardest in their 40s.

Send this to the woman in your life with ADHD who thinks she’s just scattered.

If you saw the clips about the estrogen patch shortage, this is why route matters so much.

A huge Danish study just published in The BMJ followed women 50 to 69 through national health records. Women on oral hormone therapy had about a 60 percent higher rate of blood clots in the legs and lungs, at every dose and every length of use. Patches, gels and sprays through the skin showed no overall increase.

Stroke and heart attack risk only went up with oral estradiol above 1 mg a day taken for more than a year.

The reason is the liver. Swallowed estrogen hits your liver first, and the liver responds by making more clotting proteins. Through the skin, it skips that first pass.

This isn’t a reason to panic or stop. Absolute risk stays low for most women. But if you’ve been on an estrogen pill for years, ask your prescriber whether a transdermal option makes sense for you.

Three questions to ask your prescriber: What dose am I on? Is a transdermal route an option? How long should I stay on this form?

Save this for your next appointment, and send it to a friend on estrogen pills.

Ladies, if your husband or partner keeps saying no to testosterone because he’s afraid of prostate cancer, this one’s for you.

It’s the question wives ask me all the time. For most of my career, the answer we gave was “it might.”

That fear goes back to a 1941 study on men who already had advanced prostate cancer. It stuck around for 80 years.

Here’s what we know now. Once testosterone is above about 100, the receptors in the prostate are already full. More testosterone doesn’t push them any harder. And the men who showed a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer were the ones with LOW testosterone.

Dr. Tracy Gapin spent his career as a urologist, and he walks through all of it, including why PSA can tick up on TRT without meaning cancer. Comment TLEVEL84 and I’ll send you the full episode so you two can listen together.

Did your partner ever turn down testosterone because of this fear? Tell me below.

Send this to him, or save it for the next time it comes up at his doctor’s appointment.

Testosterone prescriptions for women have roughly tripled in recent years. There is still no FDA-approved testosterone product made for women.

So doctors prescribe it off-label, and some pharmacies stall, delay or refuse to fill it.

In September the FDA held its first public workshop on testosterone for menopausal women. The experts agreed the evidence is strongest for low libido. Energy, mood, muscle and memory need more study. That’s not the same as saying it doesn’t work. It means the big trials haven’t been done.

At Magnolia Pharmacy we compound testosterone at the small doses a woman’s body actually needs. We don’t shave down a man’s product and hope for the best. That’s the difference when your pharmacy actually understands women’s hormones.

So here’s my question. Should women have to fight this hard for a hormone their bodies already make? Tell me below, and save this if you’re on testosterone or thinking about it.

If you’re on a prescription vitamin D you take once a week, this one’s for you.

Most people assume the prescription is the stronger, better option. But researchers at the University of Surrey pooled randomized trials and found the form in that prescription can actually lower the vitamin D your body makes from sunlight. People taking it ended up lower in that form than people taking nothing at all.

Your total vitamin D can still go up, so it isn’t dangerous. But if the goal is getting you to a solid level, it may not be the best tool. And the cheaper bottle on the drugstore shelf is usually the other form.

Don’t stop anything on your own. Ask your prescriber which form you’re on and whether switching makes sense.

Save this, and send it to the person in your family who’s been on the weekly prescription forever.

Your skincare products might have the right ingredients, but are they working well together?

Copper peptides can be sensitive to how they’re formulated and what they’re combined with. Even ingredients you love, like vitamin C, may affect their stability.

Sometimes, it’s not just about what you put on your skin. It’s about how your products work together.

Menopause belly isn’t just weight gain. When estrogen drops, fat moves toward the middle, and your BMI can still say healthy.

BMI is height and weight. That’s all it knows. It can’t tell muscle from fat, and it can’t tell you where the fat is sitting. Visceral fat is the kind wrapped around your liver, pancreas and intestines, and it’s the kind tied to insulin resistance, fatty liver, inflammation and heart disease.

Two women can have the exact same BMI. One has muscle and very little visceral fat. The other has lost muscle and is carrying it around her organs. Same number on the chart, very different future.

This is why we run InBody scans at Magnolia Pharmacy. In a couple of minutes you get an estimate of your visceral fat level, your muscle and your body fat. No scanner? Take a string. Your waist should measure less than half your height.

Save this and do the string test tonight.

Leg cramps. Tingling hands. Tired all the time. Brain fog. Most people would never connect those to the little pill they’ve taken every morning for years.

Here’s the problem. You need stomach acid to absorb certain nutrients. The medication in this video shuts acid down, which is the whole point. But stay on it long enough and B12, magnesium and calcium can start running low. The FDA has warned about low magnesium with long-term use and fracture risk with high doses or long-term use.

The over-the-counter version is labeled for 14 days. I meet people who’ve taken it every day for a decade.

Some people truly need it long term. But nobody should be on it on autopilot. And don’t quit cold turkey, because your stomach can rebound with even more acid. Talk to your prescriber about a taper and ask for your B12 and magnesium to be checked.

Save this so you remember the two labs to ask for at your next visit: B12 and RBC magnesium.

Estradiol pills cost me pennies at the pharmacy.
â €
That’s exactly why I asked Dr. Tara Scott if this patch shortage changed her mind about oral estrogen. Her answer? She hasn’t had to switch anyone to a pill yet.
â €
Comment PATCH83 and I’ll send you the full episode.
â €
When the patch isn’t on the shelf, there’s a daily gel option a lot of women never even get offered. Dose it once a day and it’s mostly cleared by the next dose.
â €
But here’s the part that gets missed. Not every topical works the same way. A daily cream can slowly build up over time, so the dose on paper isn’t always the dose in your body.
â €
As a pharmacist, this is why “just swap it” advice drives me crazy. Same hormone does not mean same result.
â €
If your doctor wanted to move you to a pill because your patch was back-ordered, would you take it or push for another option? Tell me below.
â €
And if you know a woman who just got switched without a real conversation about it, send her this.
