It's me again!!!
I had the Dutch cortisol test done. Results were a worry. Basically my HPA-AXIS needs support due to high levels of nightime free cortisol and cortisone. My DHEA-S is low in range too. Spoke to my doctor who wasn't bloody interested as usual so resorted to Google. From your previous recommendations

Ectopic pregnancy help please - super freaking out! š
Iām (at the moment) experiencing a PUL as too early/hcg too low to pick up on ultrasound. Dr advised that I āwait to see what happensā ā¦ I go back tomorrow for another US (though they still arenāt confident theyāll see anything as hcg hardly risen) She then talked about non intervention management

Hrt and asthma - any problems?
Hi, I have moderate asthma with daily naughty mucus. The mucus is worsened by my rhinitis. The doctor wants me to start using oestrogen gel as my peri menopause symptoms have become nasty. Does anyone have any experience of the estradiol transdermal gel and asthma? I'm worried that it will worsen my

Advice on Results Please
Hello, I've been trying to find my sweet spot since starting HRT and discovering I was undermedicated. I've just had my latest test results back although I keep having issues with the blood samples for Medichecks so some tests have been redone and other are missing. Anyone else have issues with this

T4/T3 combo reducing Levo
I worked my way up to 112mcg of Levo and finally added 10mcg of T3. After the introduction of T3 my T4 levels(around 40% in range) didn't change much after going up to 112mcg daily and my overall thyroxine levels came down further. I did try to increase to alternating days with 125/112mcg of Levo but

HRT patches, how to make them stick!
Does anyone have any tips as to where best location for HRT patches to go? My GP says anywhere below the waist, so itās been put (first time today) just above pubic area, but it seems to wrinkle and fold, especially when I sit down, presumably reducing its effectiveness. Tips welcome for a first time

Adrenalin?
I am down to 4 mg pred. after 2 years, no current pain just occasional tiredness. Over the 2 years Iāve noticed I lack emotion apart from frustration that turns into anger. Very rarely feel happy or excited and rarely content. Is this lack of Adrenalin? How long should I stay on 4mg before reducing to

Not looking for any glimmer of hope, just wanted to write down my frustrations to an audience that can sympathise. This ivf journey is just awful. We have to go through so much and most of the time just carry on as normal to those around us. Round (4 and our last attempt) and I finally got a bfp

HRT for treatment of osteoporosis
Hi. Can anyone offer their experience of using HRT to help build bone density instead of the usual bisphonates ? I have had a REMS scan recently which shows similar (spine) and higher (hip) T scores than my DEXA although the strength of my bones is very good according to the REMS. I have a very low

*Sensitive* OTD and it's a BFP.
Cant quite believe it. I'm 14dp6dt and we got our very first BFP. It felt like a particularly difficult build up this time as it took us a year to even get to point of a transfer (I suddenly developed thyroiditis last year then I had covid etc). It was PGTA tested embryo and this time I was on 10mg

Keto, Eggs and PD Meds
So I decided that Keto was the way forward. Tried it when I was first DXed for 4 weeks but didnāt help. I probably expected too much in too little time. Anyway, 7 years later and Iām ready for the ābig pushā. Got my larder full of erithytol, almond flour, Keto snacks, MCT oil. Yesterday I had a breakfast
