Asking a question on behalf of my Mum with regards to a hysterectomy. Ladies who have had it what did you keep?
My mum is 51 has always suffered with extremely heavy periods and as she has gotten older this has gotten significantly worse. After being put on iron tablets and tranexamic acid by the GP with not much relief she was referred to a gynaecologist. The gynaecologist examined her and said her uterus

imuran
I have been on Imuran 50mg for over 3 years and will be on it another 2 for autoimmune hepatitis. I also have PBC and take ursodiol for that. Imuran has lowered my liver levels and has kept them stable for me. It suppresses your immune system but it’s manageable. My dr is hoping that after being on it

Low FT4, Normal TSH, Fluctuating FT3
Hi everyone, Would massively appreciate some advice as my GP & Endocrinologist are not giving me answers to why my Thyroid has been underactive. All they have done is say I should take Levothyroxine 25mg. Before I do I want to try create a holistic treatment plan alongside the medication & to do that

Pill Gets Stuck
I have been taking Alendronate once weekly for a month. The pill keeps getting stuck in my throat. I drink a full glass of water before taking the pill and another glass afterward. I am also standing. I was hesitant to start this med. Now I am afraid of doing damage to my esophagus and thinking

Should I stop any supplements after transfer?
Hi all, Am finally getting to go through my first frozen transfer after 3 cancelled cycles (one fresh two frozen). I'm currently taking a few supplements (have been for at least 9 -12 months) but is there any that I should stop taking the day of or after transfer? I assume most are fine but just wanted

Excellent sleep aid
Hi gang. You all know the trouble I’ve had sleeping recently. Well last night I added two new elements to my routine: CBD oil and this product from a Canadian? firm called Comfort Linen . The sheets etc are designed to work together and I must say I was very impressed with the freeing up of my movements

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

should I be concerned about skincare products while pregnant?
I’m 11 weeks pregnant and have been using my usual skincare products. They are over the counter and geared towards acne so have salicylic acid. My doctor said to send a list of the ingredients which I did and she’s responded to say there’s evidence that they’re safe in pregnancy so to stop using

update on my post about my colonoscopy on August 6th while on 3.5mg of Prednisolone.
Hi all, I’m sure I had very little sedation because I felt so much pain during the colonoscopy that I thought they’d forgotten to give me any. Only one polyp & 2 biopsies were removed & it felt like I was awake during the whole procedure, which I wasn’t as it took 40 minutes. I even felt the scope

i have depression, suicidal ideation and I don't know what to do.

just started Alendronic Acid tablets
I was recently diagnosed with osteoporosis and given alendonic accid tablets to try. The day after I took them my teeth on one side felt weird, more prominent somehow. I'm wondering if this is normal or a problem. Have asked my dentist for advice but wondered if anyone else experienced this?

Second Prostap injection
Hi, I had my second 3 month Prostap injection 4 weeks ago and I’ve been bleeding heavily with clots since having it… it took 6 weeks for the bleeding to stop when I had the first one, then I had a few weeks of no bleeding which was lovely, I started spotting two weeks before my second was due but assumed
