So I have suffered with Endo and Adeno symptoms for like past 15/16 years and unfortunately am no stranger to being in pain because of it. However, over the last few months / periods, the pain has become soo much worse...which I didn't even think was possible. (I'm not sure if it is because of taking

Excessive sweating
With Parkinson’s, it’s common for the skin on your face to become very oily, especially on your forehead and on the sides of your nose (this is known as seborrhea). You may also notice that your eyebrows and scalp get oily too, resulting in flaky skin (dandruff). It’s also fairly common to experience

Any suggestions as to how to stop spotting?
hey We’ve been TTC since November. No luck yet. I’ve got stage 4 endometriosis and I’m constantly spotting each month. Sometimes it’s only 2 or 3 days before period, sometimes it’s 7 days before period. One day it’ll be brown and the next bright red. Every month I know I’m not pregnant because of

Treatment for Osteoporosis
Is anyone taking Teriperatide for osteoporosis of the spine? Are you living in the UK? How many fractures do you have? I have refused Alendronic acid because of side effects - Osteo necrosis of the jaw, principally. Phyllis Wilson

Good site for vegan nutrition info and some supplements I take
https://veganhealth.org/daily-needs/ For a good B12 source would recommend the 3 natural form supplement here : https://www.sunday.de/en/vitamin-b12/. 500mcg per day is a good safe dosage. You cannot overdose on B12 and although 500mcg seems like a lot, only an estimated 6-7mcg are absorbed of this

Bisphosphonate success? My update!
Greetings to all! I can never begin to thank the special few ladies on this site enough who replied to my first note back in the early summer of 2021 and encouraged me with their positive stories and shared fears when I was absolutely terrified to make the decision to start alendronate.
