Estrogen Replacement therapy after surgical menopause
Hi everyone! I would like to chat with somebody who may have or is going through a similar experience. I had a full hysterectomy- removal of everything, over 20 years ago. I am on 2mg of Estrogen once per day. The docs used to do the implant yearly but it is no longer available. I am now 51

Hot flashes from lack of estrogen
I'm underweight and she is suggesting that I take hormone
replacement
therapy
(
estrogen
patch) to eliminate the hot flashes. Does anyone know if that'll work to take away the hot flashes since it's cause is no estrogen in my body?

Estrogen patch to improve quality of life
Could the men here who use estrogen patches at "just to feel good" levels comment on your experience? Mr. Spouse21 will be getting spot radiation to a single spinal tumor very soon. Thanks to everyone who encouraged that instead of Pluvicto at this time. His two oncologists agreed as did a radiation

Sleeping w/out THC for the first time in 5 years
I'm still trying to figure out several PD issues that I think are related to the estrogen patch I started about a year ago, and I intend to post about that eventually, but I wanted to give a quick update because my severe insomnia seems to be resolved. The last time I tried sleeping without THC was

High thyroid hormone link to low estrogen
Hi all, does anyone know if going through an early menopause which is causing estrogen levels to fall create a higher blood concentration of thyroid hormone levels. Please include links, no guessing please. Also after a few months on thyroid lowering drugs, folic acid levels have dropped below range

Can IVF cause endometriosis?
Hope everyone is keeping well! In my last frozen IVF transfer (my second transfer in total), the consultant found an endometrioma cyst on one of my ovaries. When one of these is found, I believe you’re automatically classified as having stage 3/4 endometriosis. But what I’m trying to acertain, is whether

Estrogen patches advice please!
Hi All, I’m about to start a FET cycle - my last one in June 2023 sadly ended in a BFN! Since then I’ve spoken to 2 different consultants - one suggested ading estrogen patches to my protocol, and the other is happy to go along with that plan. My lining was 7.6mm at my first scan last June. I haven’t

*sensitive post* advice please - spotting/cramps 5 weeks 5 days
Hi,I'm 5 weeks 5 days pregnant after IVF. I'm on daily oestrogen patches and daily progesterone pessaries (which I use rectally). This afternoon I started spotting - this is very very light brown and not always there when I wipe but has been there on and off for a few hours now. It's so light it could

Differences between oral, vaginal, patches and injectable estrogen?
Hello everyone, does anyone know if there are differences between oral, vaginal, patches and injectable estrogen for boosting the lining? I have had spotting while on progynova and patches, and while my doctor assures me that is normal, it still unnerves me so I would like to try another form of estrogen

Feelings post egg retrieval
I had my first egg retrieval on Monday. All went well and we got 20 eggs, 12 of which have fertilised, so I'm really pleased with that. I was initially quite bloated and crampy for a couple of days, but that's subsided, however I'm having some other symptoms that I can't quite pin down a cause for. Since

DHEA & COQ10
Do you stop taking it when you are on meds for FET or after the transfer? I'm due to have a FET in a few periods time. However I want to start DHEA to prep my eggs if I need another cycle. Will I need to stop it when I start the Oestrogen patches or just when I have the transfer? My consultant said

Managing OHSS risk
I'm on my first IVF cycle and due for egg collection on Monday. We always knew I was high risk for OHSS as I have PCOS, and had an AMH of 205 initially, (which has reduced to 45 on Metformin), so were always planning to freeze the eggs from this cycle. My estrogen at day 5 of stims was around 3500 and

FET query
Hello all,Can anyone explain to me the process of a FET in this scenario? Or any time lines/experiences of it. The consultant said I would have an injection on day 20 to switch my ovaries off, but then no more medication other than a scan/bloods on day 10ish to check transfer date. He said I may need

Disappointing response to stims 🙁
Hello everyone, I hope everyone’s journeys are going well. A bit of background about me … I follow a non standard protocol for FET where I inject gonal f alternate days to stimulate one or two follicle growth so the natural oestrogen encourages my lining to thicken. This normally takes 5 doses.

Any tips for Natural Modified FET (boost lining)?
Hi everyone, I have a persistent thinnish lining (around 6 to 7mm) after an episode of abnormal bleeding between periods (turned out to be silent endo and a polyp that did not show up on ultrasound). Before that, 11mm was my average. After failing a recent FET, my doctor decided to monitor my lining
