Endo and mega high levels of oestradiol...
My cognitive issues/brain fog/inability to learn new info/feeling confused and forgetful; they are getting worse and worse. I thought these would be menopausal but my blood tests today show that I am not menopausal at all. How can this be? My oestradiol levels are 1888 pmol/L and FSH is 6.8iu/L and LH

preparing for FET
Hi I’ve started my DR injections and booked in for my first scan on the 28th. This is my first FET. I’ve had three rounds of ivf, getting around 3 eggs at a time. The first round all 3 made it to blastocyst, one fresh transfer ended in a blighted ovum, others not good enough to freeze. Second

Rant!
I had possibly the worst GP appointment today in my life. His English was not good, combined with a lisp, it was virtually impossible to understand his questions. I finally sussed out that "blith" was blood. I had the results back from some blood work at a hospital (took 50 days to get the results

Hypothyroidism and infertility
Hi. I was wondering if there is a connection between hypothyroidism and low lh FSH and estrogen/ progesterone/testosterone? My GP is extremely unhelpful at explaining these things to me, my periods have stopped and my thyroid levels are low alongside my female hormones. Is there a connection as in

Smartway pharmacy and T3
Well I finally had some joy from a pharmacy on the list on here. The Isle of Wight can only get it but it's too expensive so I tried Smartway. I emailed and rang a couple of others from the list but no reply . Smartway rang me back and the pharmacist was really lovely. He told me the cheapest way of

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! 😞
I’m (at the moment) experiencing a PUL as too early/hcg too low to pick up on ultrasound. Dr advised that I “wait to see what happens” … I go back tomorrow for another US (though they still aren’t confident they’ll see anything as hcg hardly risen) She then talked about non intervention management

Hrt and asthma - any problems?

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 it’s 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 I’ve 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

HCG only went up by 24 in 72hrs. Now a wait for the inevitable…
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

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 didn’t help. I probably expected too much in too little time. Anyway, 7 years later and I’m ready for the ‘big push’. Got my larder full of erithytol, almond flour, Keto snacks, MCT oil. Yesterday I had a breakfast
