Hi,I am looking for a bit of advice. I am in severe pain due to a flare up of my endometriosis (was stage 4 when they operated me 2 years ago) and potential adenomyosis. The doctor suggested Dienogest or Zoladex injection as a an alternative treatment to another operation. Does anybody has any

Anastrozole with BAT question
As I experiment with BAT (to the horror of some), one of my doctors has strongly told me to limit Anastrozole to 0.5 mg once every two months or, at most, 0.5 mg at the time of injection and 0.5 mg one week later, saying “anastrozole only stops the conversion to estradiol. 2-OHE1 and 16a-OHE1 are

HRT newbie help! NHS appointment, finally!
I needed a post of my own after "130396"s post today about Utrogestan and Estradot. It's taken almost 7 months but my NHS phone appointment is finally around the corner now, next Thursday. GP was reluctant to prescribe HRT herself. My periods first stopped in September 2020, then made a reappearance

Medichecks Result and a warning about testing & HRT
Apologies for the long post (my first) and thank you if you manage to get to the end of it. Bit of history first (there's more in my bio), after 7 years of being bedbound with a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, I was finally prescribed combination T3/T4 in 2018. I hadn't had my bloods checked since 2019

Is it normal to feel anxious when adding Armour?
I just started taking an extra 1/4 grain of Armour. I feel a bit edgy and anxious. Is this typical for an adjustment period? My previous dose was 88mcg Synthroid and 1/4 grain Armour. Adding 1/4 grain because my most recent lab results were this: August 9, 2022 TSH - 4.12 mIU/L …Range: .4-4.50 mIU

Diagnosed with osteoporosis after 9 years on warfarin
I was originally diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018, but probably had it for 5 or more years before that. After an aortic valve replacement in 2013 with the On-X valve, I was prescribed warfarin. Studies link warfarin to osteoporosis, In Oct. 2021, I started on Orgovyx. I recently had a Vit. D serum

worse pain post laparascopy and Dienogest treatment
hi everyone. ive had my laparascopy 8 weeks ago and have been on Dienogest since then. Despite the hormone, I had ~2 weeks of light dark bleeding a month ago with some cramps. Now my cramps are so much worse, even worse than pre surgery and I suspect I will be bleeding again. This is a bit worrying as

Dienogest London
I got diagnosed with endo in France and got prescribed dienogest there. I just moved to the UK and I'm trying to transfer my prescription to my London GP, but they told me they don't have it/don't prescribe it. Any advice for getting a prescription here or convincing my GP to prescribe it?

A good lab/package? - Hormone Lab UK Official Test Provider of ZRT Laboratory
I was thinking to potentially get routine thyroid checks, Cortisol and DHEA, and also female hormones.

A case to push for darolutamide.
out of 68 known Variants that escaped treatment darolutamide is effective against all but one. This article is from june 2021. it is a invitro study so it needs vitro study, then insilico AI to further confirm but it is still important. And even shows resistant variants to abiraterone, corticosteroids

My 51 Month tE2 (transdermal estradiol) Results
Just received my recent blood test results and needless to say that I'm thrilled with the numbers! Still, the ONLY side effect is some degree of gynecomastia which isn't a big deal since I'm still able to do my gym routine five nights/week plus doing 4 sets of 18 rep pull-ups (2 with hands facing forward

When to stop Estradiol patches
When did you stop your estradiol patches in the run up to stimulation? Was it as soon as your period arrived (ie first spots of blood) or only when it hit full flow? Thanks so much!

Estrogen Dose Too High?
My hormones history is very long, so I won'tgo into great detail , but I had a hysterectomy (everything gone) about 16 years ago. I did fine on 1 mg oral estradiol for about 8 years. About 8 years later, I crashed badly with every menopausal symptom. The worse being the psychological ones. Not one
