lexapro for menopausal anxiety
my doctor put me on lexapro because I've been having a lot of health issues that are stressing me and I've not been eating or sleeping she thinks it might be linked to menopause and I can't go on hrt so she suggested lexapro any advice or opinions?

GP recommends HRT, but still have periods - is this advisable?
HRT: I'm 48, juggling various health/autoimmune-type symptoms, low iron, low energy. Was chatting to a GP today (different one from usual) about getting a sick note, and she suggested trying HRT even though I still have periods. She's written me a prescription, but I'm super wary as a) I don't trust

5+4 no fetal pole
Hello! So after a stressful weekend of hcg tests, I had a scan at the epu this afternoon. I’m 5+4. They saw the gestational sac and yolk sac measuring 5 and half weeks. No embryo or fetal pole was seen but the sonographer said that’s normal, wouldn’t expect to see it. I’m beyond stressed over the whole

HRT
Hi I had OC end of 2020. Stage1c2 grade 1 endometriod adenocarcinoma 14 months after my op I was told its safe for me to have HRT! So I've been on it 4 months now.

Aviva - Excluding Endometriosis as a "Chronic" Condition
Hello I'm hoping someone could give me advice or be able to provide some support during this tough time which my wife is going through. I'm doing my very best to support her but feel like I can't do enough most of the time. I know we are lucky in that we have private medical insurance through my work

K2 with D3
Can anyone advise me re K2 please? I take between 3000-6000 iu D3 per day and have always been under the impression that it was imperative to take K2 with it. However, I have Atrial Fibrillation (I'm not on any prescription meds, only supplements which are said to thin the blood) so I'm a little wary

What main tests to check at 6 or 7 week
Hi ladies I will be getting my bloods back Tuesday to see if pregnancy hcg is going up. If they do GP said they will book a scan at 6 or 7 weeks. If I do get this far what main tests do I have to get done for any problems with the child? To make sure can check for any abnormalities?

HCG not doubling

A prime example of bad misleading research
A little bit of scientific comment and analysis to discriminate plausible papers from rubbish. In the latest journal Thyroid I've picked out a paper that could mislead readers in its misuse of statistical analyses These are the kind of sloppy papers that all too easily get picked on as support for

Dx of PV confirmed
Hi all. So had phone call from my haematologist today to confirm a Dx of PV. I am off to sunny climates today for holiday so he has sent a letter to my GP to start me on aspirin when I return. Won’t see me again until planned Sept consult with him. Not sure when venesections will start, hopefully not

Help with hrt
I’ve been taking evorel 25 and ultrogestan 100 since February for menopause symptoms but the side effects have been getting worse. The menopause team wrote to gp and suggested everol conti or something else. The gp prescribed everol conti as it’s what they prefer. I finally got it today and I’m not happy

Low beta HCG - Ectopic / chemical? Any hope?
Hi everyone, So we got our first ever BFP on Wednesday 6th July and also did a blood test the same day. We got the results from the bloods this morning and the beta hcg level is 15.8 and it says this is a “negative” pregnancy test. What I don’t understand is why the pee stick today is the strongest

Levothyroxine and HRT
My first post on here but have been following for the last 4 years and have learnt so much from all the different posts. My question is about taking HRT tablets as well as Levothyroxine . I take my levo before bed but my HRT tablets also say to take at night. Will this affect my levo? Should I consider

Afraid to get better? Do you self sabotage yourself
Is anyone else here afraid to get better? That for some reason you're holding on to your depression because it's more comfortable to be miserable than to improve? Is it the unknown, the fear of responsibility? I know I am. My wife says I always self sabotage myself. Once something starts to work I freak

Anyone had a similar experience - is this ectopic?
Hey, just after some similar stories. Going out of my mind. I found out I was pregnant a few weeks back after a FET. I would have been 6 weeks today. At around 5 weeks I started having severe cramps and back pain for 2 days followed by a few days bleeding with a couple of clots passed. Of course I

My journey continues
I had a laproscopy 2 years ago and now awaiting it again. They have put me on the injection to bring on menopause & HRT. I rang today to see the wait for surgery it is going to be 50 weeks. They are going to extend the injections until I have the surgery even though the injection is licenced for 6 months
