Opioids can cause adrenal insufficiency
Hi everyone, It appears that opioids can cause adrenal insufficiency. This is something I have not seen mentioned here. Does anyone know about this? Here are a few articles. I think this has relevance to anyone trying to taper through the lower doses of pred if they are taking opioids for pain or any

OHSS, how long after egg collection?
Hi, First round of IVF and had eggs collected yesterday. I have all the risk factors for OHSS, but we are mitigating as much as possible (gnrh agonist trigger, freezing eggs, Cabergoline, clexane and gnrh antagonist for the next few days). For those who have had OHSS, how long after the collection did

Periods After GNRH Injections
hi all! Just wondering when did your cycles return back to normal after stopping GNRH injections (zoladex etc)? I’m only a few days after the 28 days mark so not sure what to expect.

Can you reject GNRH analogues? Consequences? Please help.
Hi there, I'm going in for my second Endo surgery next week, 9cm endometrioma, and the MRI showed a few other lesions. My last surgery was 6 years ago, and they removed a 16m endometrioma. The surgeon called last week in response to some questions I had and made an offhand remark about having a shot

Scared of GnRH as symptoms include osteoporosis, alopecia and hot flashes. Endo and fibroid.
I've been diagnosed of fibroid, endo and dermoid cyst. Gyna suggested surgery but must take GnRH for 6 months pre surgery to avoid blood loss and eventually hysterectomy. I'm 29. GnRH side effects scares me - alopecia osteoporosis depression weight gain. I'm a very active person, an artist and marketing

Periods returning?
Hi. I have been on 2 different GNRH analogues for 2.5 years ish. I have decided to come off the injections as I can no longer tolerate the side effects. Especially joint pains. How long does it take for your periods to return? Will they be as bad as before? Thanks

GnRH side affects and endo pain
I have had my second monthly GnRH injection out of three that I am having but have really been struggling with menopause side affects such as hot flushes, all over aches and feeling exhausted. Has anyone else had this and did these symptoms go on their own or did you have to have HRT tablets or did anything

Hi, I did a request to get my latest MRI report. They have sent me notes of a recent MDT discussion. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in June 2020 after suffering for over 15 years. I am concerned about the report because it says my adenomyosis looks slightly better. I wasn't even told I had that as

Orgovyx with BAT Questions
Hi fellow BATMEN! I have questions on should i need to take Orgovyx continuously during BAT cycles. Orgovyx 120mg/day lowers T 57% by day 4 and 97% by day 15 with a loading dose of 360mg. Orgovyx once T is suppressed below 50ng it takes 49 WEEKS to move above 50ng. https://www.orgovyxhcp.com/efficacy
