11dp5dt bfp but spotting
Hi looking for reassurance or anyone with a similar story. I’m currently 11dp5dt and have had positive tests since day 5 which I’m very happy about. However today I noticed a bit of light brown discharge and then half an hour later wiped away dark red blood. There was loads of it but enough to make me

Hi everyone, Need some advice. This is our 7th ivf cycle. Last cycle we had: Day 9: 4 x 17, 21, 19, 16, 15, 15, 14, 14, 12 Oestradiol 9000 We collected 8 eggs, 5 mature, 1 transferred BFN and 1 mosaic embryo We are a bit concerned with our numbers for this cycle: Follicle count at baseline

Endo results - meno or thyroid?
55 year old hypo diagnosed 20+ years ago, family history of hypo ( nan, mum and sister) . I also have vitiligo from my early 20s. I was tested for dry eyes when I was a teenager , so I think I've been hypo a long time.
Oct 23 GP bloods showed TSH 0.1, T4 18.9.

weight changes on Estradiol and cyclogest for FET
I’m waiting for the go ahead to start estradiol and then cyclogest as part of the prep for a FET but really struggled with the weight I gained during the 3 cycles we had. We had 3 cycles in 3 months and I gained so much weight with the stress and drugs. I’ve had a little gap in-between the last retrieval

Estrogen vs ADT?
I've read 5 recent papers that discuss the use of estrogen as an alternative treatment to ADT (Lupron, etc.). The new data looks very favorable. A bit of history. Huggins discovered this effect around 1941-44, and he found that high doses of estrogen (estradiol) efficiently castrated men, which

How many estrogen patches should I use?
I had a nice breakthrough today. 😀 I collected all of the available data on the number of estrogen patches that the studies have used, and plotted the measured serum estradiol level versus total milligrams of estrogen used every week. I was pleasantly surprised when all five of the data points

My own PSA values over time: 70% drop in just 3 months on Dutasteride and no ADT
Here are my own PSA values versus time plot. You can see there is an exponential rise in PSA starting at around 6/1/23, and doubling from PSA = 5 to 10 in about 8 months. My MRI at PSA = 10 showed a T3a tumor about 1.3 cm long (PIRADS 5). A subsequent targeted biopsy showed Gleason 3+4 in 4 cores,

Thin womb lining
Hi 👋 We are about to start our second round of IVF. I had my scan today and my womb lining is only 4.5 after 13 days of Estradiol. I have to go back for another scan on Friday, but if it’s not thickened up by then they will have to cancel this cycle. Has anyone else been in this situation? Thanks

HRT Questions
I wondered if any members could recommend or suggest good bioidentical HRT products. I've been on HRT for nearly 7 years. I went into menopause very abruptly after I came off the pill. A lot of weird health issues reared their head at the same time and I admit I wasn't very well at the time. I've mentioned

male hormones
Hi Ladies and Gents I wanted to ask if anyone knows where I can find a group/expert about male hormones? It’s for my husband, he has no thyroid issues, it’s about other hormones. He did a Randox test and it turns out he has elevated FSH, LH, Prolactin and Oestradiol. His Testosterone is ok, he is
