Constipation
Hi helpful community. I am on 40 mg or prednisone for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the prednisone or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days. then I take mineral oil for couple

Just checking to be sure 6 month break after 5 week radiation treatment is the next best step?
He just completed 5 weeks of Radiation to the whole pelvic area with a booster of radiation at some point as well while he remains on
ADT
(Firmagon shot once a month).

T3 brands available on private prescription in the U.K.
Good afternoon everyone, Hope you are all as well as can be. I see a private endocrinologist who prescribes my NDT and T3. Currently, the T3 brand is Thybon Henning - reasonably priced. I keep it on my prescription for ‘emergencies’ because when I transitioned to Thybon from Grossman Cynomel

NDT has raised my thyroid anti-bodies. What's next?
Hi All, As I just made a post with my update on NDT (good T3 and T4 levels, but TSH is 0.017, so too low), I received my latest anti-bodies results. And they went up! I've heard some people shared how their anti-bodies went up as well on NDT. Yes, I'm on a gluten-free, whole food diet, been on

Taken off NDT
Hi there, my friend who has been well on NDT for many years now, has been taken off it by the endo who says he is no longer able to prescribe it. She has been given Liothyronine but is not well on it, and told her 'levels' are fine. She wants to look into getting a private prescription, but from my research

What TSH level is too low on NDT + low sodium
Hi All, I switched to NDT 6 weeks ago and have been dialing in my dose. I take Erfa NDT. I raised it up to 1 3/4 tablets, and have just tested my thyroid. I've read a lot of discussions here about NDT and TSH and from what I understand, from this big study when TSH gets lower than 0.3, it increases

Can I get Armour Thyroid or NDT from Crete without a prescription? Can I get it with a private prescription if not?
Hi everyone, I have been on Armour Thyroid for 22 years , I’m now 44. I was originally trialed on levothyroxine but there was absolutely no improvement, I was severely ill from a teenager, bed ridden with chronic pain and it was only when I was put on Armour Thyroid in my early 20s that I started to

Stempede with Ogrovyx + Abi.
Hi All, Had pros. cancer in 2014 which was knocked out with guided radiation. Now, 9 years later my PSA went from .4 to .9 in 12 months. PSMA Scan shows a 5mm spot on a small pelvic node. No MRI or CT would have found this! Dr's. starting me on Org., 28 days of Radiation and Abi. The whole hormone

ndt am/pm
Hi, I am starting my ndt with a 1/4 of a grain am and pm on a slow build. I wanted to know if ndt is best taken both morning and afternoon or can I take just morning? Fitting it around an Emory stomach in the afternoon is a bit tricky.

Elevated PSA #’s from sex (after RT & ADT)
I’ve been on Active Surveillance since completing my
ADT
and RT both in 2017 &18 finally coming out of castration in 2019 / early 2020 with a basement T level, so I began Penile Rehab. Well over a year after that, I was able to resume (what I now refer to as) sexual relations with my wife!

Help getting Thybon Henning in France
I have been trying to get better for nearly a year now. I was on Thyroid s NDT for over seven years and felt very well. All that changed last Sept when the NDT changed and my FT3 dropped from over 6 to 2 I started falling over. When I had a blood test it confirmed it. I have Levo and T3 Cynomel prescribed

Timing of NDT doses
I will be switching from Levothyroxine to NDT in the next few weeks. How do people manage to eat if we need to split the dose into 2 separate times, and leave 2 hours either side of taking an NDT dose, particularly avoiding magnesium, calcium and iron? So for example 9am breakfast followed by supplements

bed wetting has stopped but now child is highly emotional?
hi, just wondering if anyone here that’s had a child that wets the bed had any emotional problems when they stopped? I certainly didn’t expect that stopping bed wetting would cause us any problems 🤦🏼♀️. So this last wee my 9 year old girl has been dry at night. Great news… but now she’s so emotional

Increased Incontinence 2.5 years into stage 4
Diagnosed with stage 4 June 2020 with only treatment being
ADT
. Currently on Xtandi and Lupron. I have a couple questions for this amazing group. On my last 6 month Lupron injection the nurse injected the medicine very fast and spent a considerable time mopping up what was leaking out.

Intracrinology-Revisited and Prostate Cancer
Thus, adaptive responses in the canonical, alternative and backdoor pathways due to
ADT
would be effectively surmounted by inhibition of AKR1C3. The challenge is to develop AKR1C3 isoform selective inhibitors that do not inhibit the highly related AKR1C1 and AKR1C2 enzymes.

never loose hope upping NDT!!
bit of back story, I have been on 1 grain of NDT for 3.5 years (with added t4). Every time I upped 1/4 grain I would get hyper symptoms and it would push my t3 over range. So I had no choice but to add levo in (tirosint). T4 seems to make me feel worse and worse the higher I go in doses with extreme

Dubious ADT treatment
Overall I'm somewhat worried this whole ordeal with starting
ADT
so early and not even following it correctly did more harm than good. Is it an expected result after stopping this treatment?
