just 1 follicle
I’m currently undergoing follicle tracking on natural ovulation for PCOS. I’ve had 4 miscarriages due to low progesterone so need to go on the pessaries as soon as I get pregnant, as my problem is the embryo is implanting but soon miscarries as I can’t maintain my lining for some reason. Anyway, I had

Drug side effects
Last month I went from prediabetic to hitting 300 due to the Dexamethasone I've been having to take for my chemo treatments. My oncologist put me on metformin & it brought my level down, but now I've been in & out of the ER. Once with intestinal issues, once with chronic diarrhea & shortness of breath

Atorvastatin and liver function
Twelve weeks ago, after signs of some plaque on an MRI scan, I added 40mg of Atorvastatin to my daily medications (in addition to 10mg of Empagliflozin, which is now apparently recommended for people like me who are recovering from Heart Failure). Blood tests for liver function 3 weeks ago showed slightly

Letrozole - slow follicle growth - any experiences ?
Hello, I’m worried about my current cycle where I’m was treated with letrozole 5mg days 2-6. I have PCO (and usually ovulate on my own around day 14). I’m on letrozole to boost ovulation and to help my short natural Luteal phase (also take progesterone in the Luteal phase). For the past 6 cycles

Dapagliflozin (Forxiga, Farxiga). Has anyone been on this drug long term and experienced improvements to heart?
I have recently been to the cardiologist who has stated my ef rate had dropped from 44% to 35-40% which is a small decline but he is hoping over this next year, that the drug dapa will improve things before intervening any further. Has anyone noticed improvements from this drug specifically?

Orgovyx Insurance Approval
Anyone who is not on Medicare but relying on private insurance in getting approval for Orgovyx? I really want to avoid Lupron or Eligard since I take two blood pressure meds, one statin and Metformin for type 2 diabetes already. Plus, I have heard nothing but bad things about both. Yes, I realize

... what, then, do we die of?
New study of SEER data below [1]. The old comforting words that men with PCa "die with the disease, not of it" does not apply once mets occur, of course, but is largely true for local disease (the majority of cases in the U.S., due to screening practices.) It has long been known that men with PCa

Dr. Mark Porter's B12 Times article
Further to deniseinmilden's post I decided to risk my credit card and subscribed to the free trial of The Times to get the article. Here it is, for better or for worse!

A1C in CKD
hello. has anyone heard that the A1C "goal" for a diabetic is not the same if the diabetic has CKD? since I started diabetic treatment 2.5 years ago, it seems like my Dr's have focused on my A1C only. my A1C goes down to 6.4 great. but the Metformin can be hard to take at times with side effects,

ADT and Headaches
To all, I may have mentioned it before, but I've had low-level but disruptive headaches since I started ADT along with low RBC/Hemoglobin/Hematocrit. Also as a diabetic, I've been on metformin for many years, thus depleting my B12 levels. I've talked to my doctors about this, and the only solution

Dapagliflozin and Thrush
Just taken a pill for thrush, my third attack since starting on dapagliflozin about 18 months ago, annoying but the benefits from taking it far outweigh the disadvantages. If other users get thrush buy the generic tablet Fluconazole, its half the price of Canestan! Funnily enough i was told about the
