building a life I love, one day at a time.

Perimenopause is a roller coaster of estradiol levels. Just because we see high levels doesn’t mean we withhold treatment.

Low bone mass is so so common. It surprised me I was finding it everywhere. Get a bone density. Early detection is key.

Hi! I’m Dr Noor,

I’m a board certified family physician and midlife health expert. I’m also a human being, a woman, a mother, a stepmother, a wife, a daughter, a business owner and everything in between.

There is nothing staged here. It’s just me.

Had lots of questions on this so here’s my tutorial. Vaginal estradiol for everyone!!

[Noor Al-Humaidhi MD @askdrnoorm98b]

Femring is a great option for systemic estradiol.

I do have patients use more than one vaginal product.

I tell all of my patients that I do not use the current definition of menopause. It’s terrible. It does women harm and is used to gate keep treatment.

[Noor Al-Humaidhi MD @askdrnoorm98b]

We talk a lot here about menopause but there is a huge group of younger women with symptoms that can be well managed with hormones. However, the only time anyone pays attention to this is if they are trying to conceive. It’s just not good enough.

This week has been… a lot. TGIF

[Noor Al-Humaidhi MD @askdrnoorm98b]

Get DEXA scan! That’s the message

Lunchtime field trip to love our team ❤️

Non-oral estrogen is not one thing.
Patch, gel, spray, and Femring each have pros, tradeoffs, and different costs.

As estrogen patches struggle with supply… Let’s not forget we have other options!

Menopause care should be individualized, not one-si...

[Noor Al-Humaidhi MD @askdrnoorm98b]

Having a pelvic exams is not a prerequisite to being prescribed vaginal estradiol. It is useful however to ensure no other abnormality. One of the issues we see is that the area is so painful and uncomfortable the idea of a pelvic exam is so painful ...
