Dr. Amy B Killen

Dr. Amy B Killen Hormones, Women's Longevity M.D. Welcome to your Queen Phase™ As a former ER doctor, I saw plenty of unhealthy, unhappy people.

Five years ago, I changed my own life and became determined to help others do the same. I love using cutting edge therapies and treatments, along with good, old-fashioned common sense, to help patients reach their highest potential. I have two clinics in the Salt Lake City/Park City areas. I also speak nationally about topics of interest to me, such as regenerative medicine and sexual health. I teach a physician training course as well. In my spare time, I spend time in the mountains, hanging out with my awesome kids!

Two for one estrogen? 🤔

Low dose vaginal estradial can be used on the face as well as the v@gina/vulva.

You should discuss dosing with your physician to avoid getting too much (especially if you're not taking progesterone) but a little dab to both places is well tolerated by many women. ✅

Some women prefer to get their low-dose estradiol compounded with things like hyaluronic acid, GHK-Cu or natural oils for a less "ointment-y" feel on the face.

But, for those on a budget (or just lazy like me!) the pharmaceutical estradiol 0.01% cream works well (but does require a prescription). 🥳

Have you tried this trick? ❓

Airport security made me think about the immune system, which reminded me of its role in inflammation, which took me back to a recent podcast, which resulted in me doing a spontaneous mid-airport monologue. ✈️

Which caused a few people to stare but, not as many as you'd think. 🤣

Welcome to my life. 😃

It's time to stop scaring women! 💥

Yes, BRCA gene variants increase the risk of ovarian and breast cancer.

But taking hormone therapy after removal of the ovaries does NOT seem to increase breast cancer risk. ‼️

My Substack this week breaks down this study, as well as what was previously known in this topic.

What other myths about hormones should we bust? ❓

⁉️ What if the thing you were told to fear…
Was never the problem?

🤔 New research shows hormone therapy does not increase breast cancer risk in BRCA carriers
And estrogen may even be protective.

So why are women still being told no?
I break down the latest research and the unknowns.

Low dose vaginal estrogen is safe, even in women with a history of hormone sensitive cancer. 💪

The estrogen considered "low dose* is 10-100 mcg per dose and can be taken as a vaginal suppository (ex: Vagifem), ring (Estring), or cream (estradiol 0.01%).
Vaginal estrogen can reduce recurring UTIs significantly (among other things). 💃

It's never to late to start it and it's an extremely safe wonder drug! ✅

What's your favorite way to take vaginal estrogen? ❓

Hormone Fairy-Dusting is dangerous! ⚠️

When we sprinkle in a bit of estrogen but don't check levels and don't closely monitor for downstream effects of hormone loss, we've done a disservice to women.

You think you're protected, but you're not. ❎

An active, healthy woman in her late 50's who's taking hormones should not have severe osteoporosis.

I am happy that more doctors are starting to offer hormone therapy but we need to make sure it's an effective dose to prevent disease.

Otherwise, what's the point? ❓
