Not specific to afib, but you may want to listen to these two Peter Attia MD podcast.
Peter Attia "The female sex hormone system [27:00];"
"In this special episode of The Drive, Peter provides a comprehensive overview of the various endocrine systems: the thyroid system, the adrenal system, and the sex hormone system (for both men and women). He walks through the basic biology and the feedback cycles that regulate the production of these hormones and discusses the various options for the treatment of hormone deficiencies. In addition, Peter delves into hormone replacement therapy (HRT), providing nuanced insights into its appropriate usage and the clinical approach he adopts when working with patients. "
This is an interview with Joann Manson MD the principal investigator with the Women's Health Initiative Study.
"JoAnn Manson is a world-renowned endocrinologist, epidemiologist, and Principal Investigator for the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI). In this episode, she dives deep into the WHI to explain the study design, primary outcome, confounding factors, and nuanced benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). JoAnn reflects on how a misinterpretation of the results, combined with sensationalized headlines regarding an elevated risk of breast cancer, led to a significant shift in the perception and utilization of HRT. From there, they take a closer look at the breast cancer data to separate fact from fiction. Additionally, JoAnn gives her take on how one should weigh the risks and benefits of HRT and concludes with a discussion on how physicians can move towards better HRT practices. "

I tried bioidenticals and it was a disaster. My testosterone got way too high!! My Naturopath said it probably made my heart rhythm worse. She said there Are much better, more controlled, and natural methods to balance hormones. She told me to stop using bioidenticals.

Bioidentical HRT reduces mortality from all causes, protects the brain against dementia, protects bone density, along with eliminating/reducing post menopausal symptoms.
