I had a novasure 9 years ago. Very successful results. Now I’m on HRT and utrogestan isn’t agreeing with me. Can I have the mirena coil?

Natural FET possibly cancelled
I had a failed fresh transfer at the beginning of June. The plan was made to try for a natural modified FET this month as my cycles are regular and the risk of prenatal hypertension with a hormone FET was not ideal for me. I had my day 10 scan on Thurs and my dominant follicle was already 14.5mm but

Cognitive behavioural therapy
Hi, I've posted here before so just a quick update - RLS for 47 years, tried DAs, Gabapentin, Pregabalin and on Tramadol at the moment. I've been through augmentation. Tramadol is helping a bit but my sleep pattern is all over the place and I keep falling asleep in the afternoon. My daughter has had

Will IMRT give some relief to very painful bone mets?
My husband is in excruciating pain from the numerous pca bone mets on the spine, shoulder, chest and is now doing 20 IMRT sessions for palliative pain relief. We have done several chemo combination over the past 5yrs but cancer just kept progressing. This is his first ever radiation since diagnosis

Bio Feedback
Has anyone had success with biofeedback? Our son is 13 and had dyspraxia, he can't locate his pelvic floor so as to engage the sensors at the hospital. Anyone have any suggestions on what we could do? We have 5 more sessions (4 hour round trip plus appointment) so it would be good to try and make

Radiation for Salvage Treatment
I am about to start salvage treatment after a failed surgery and a rising PSA value of 0.1. However, I would like to know if weeks of external radiation with ADT, is the best treatment option here. The idea of blindly radiating pelvic area with a re-recurrence a few years later does not appeal to me.

Et triple negative platlets gone up to 1560
Hi all, Just getting back on here about platlets increasing over 1500,My hematologist will want me on hydroxyurea as he said when I go over 1500 that is his way forward. The past 2 bloods I had done have come down from 1420 to 1402 to 1300 last time 6 weeks ago. I am just wondering if it has to be this

My thyroid seems worse with every dose increase.
I could not take levo/synthroid..It made me feel too bad. One time on synthroid I had good numbers still felt awful. I switched to armor. It seems the dose will make me feel good for about a month...then I start getting worse and worse..The next month they check my thyroid numbers and they are higher

Update on my father
I just wanted to post a quick update on my father. He has metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. He’s been on ADT - Eligard shots every 3 months and prednisone + zytiga everyday. It’s challenging as I work with him and see all the ins and outs of his behaviour while on those meds. He remains
