Should I stop Levothyroxine?
I'm thinking of stopping my Thyroid medication as I don't feel any better on it. Is it safe to stop taking Levothyroxine without reducing the quantity? I am still unable to get back to my weight of 57kgs. Currently, I weigh 60kgs, and I have to reduce my meals to breakfast and a light supper. I feel

I was prescribed Dienogest (or Zalkya) to take for 6 months post-op as suggested but the surgeon, however it is a complete nightmare trying to find a pharmacy that supplies it. Every time I request

Help with blood test results pls
Hi there Would be most grateful for any advice pls - I have been on HRT for nearly 5 months. I still have regular periods (i'm 48) but the HRT was prescribed because my hormonal headaches are getting so much worse so we are assuming I am perimenopausal. I'm on HRT patches (Estraderm MX 50 patches (

Finally Got Up Enough Nerve to Show My Boobs After four Years (next month) On Estradiol Gel.
After a failed prostate surgery, and an unfounded lymph node surgery, the 'only' thing that I am doing now to keep my PC at bay is applying transdermal E2 gel. My last PSA was 0.0I2. I took this pic tonight in the gym. Sorry if it grosses some of you out; however, many guys are curious as to how badly

Blood test help
Hi I wonder if you'd mind raising any problems with my bloods please. I recently saw an endocrinologist for my chronic insomnia, which I believe is caused by my low cotisol/low DHEA. I am always struggling with low ferritin, and even more now I've gone off liver and liver pate. I am trying to eat

Hi everyone, thank you for sharing your journeys. I've said this before, but this forum is a massive support for me. I don't post often but it's the first thing I open in the morning and would be lost without the feeling g of support I get from you all. I was wondering if anyone has been on Dienogest

Start Over or Decrease Dose
The labs below are for 2 grains of NP Thyroid tested about 10 hours after my dose. I see an Integrative doctor and we are not agreeing on the next step . I definitely felt overmedicated. I was emotional, looked and felt horrible, and felt like I was starving all the time, so I believe I need to lower

The Neuroendocrine Connection
Adrenal hormones, sex hormones, and neurotransmitters are functionally interrelated. Changes in sex hormones and adrenal hormones can lead to neurotransmitter imbalances. In turn, neurotransmitter imbalances can affect hormone function. The following tests are recommended to establish your baseline.
