Took it upon myself to increase my dosage - what next?
OK, you don't need to tell me that this is something you shouldn't do with any prescription medication, however the situation needs some context. I don't want to ramble on so I'll try to keep this as succinct as possible. I'm a 36 year old man diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism, but the symptoms

Husband on orgovyx for 3 months. Finished 28 proton treatments 3 weeks ago. Had lung surgery to remove unrelated cancerous spot. Dr. wants him off orgovyx 2 more weeks. Thoughts? Husband doesn’t want testosterone to rise.

Hi All, Thanks to you lovely lot, I have been successfully taking T4 Levothyroxine 125mcg x1 with self-prescribed T3 25mcg x twice daily. I feel I’ve hit the right spot with my thyroid regime. I take Almus brand 100mcg, with Wockhardt 25mcg T4 Levo. I take the Tiromel brand for my T3. I’m coeliac,

"feeling fat over 40?"
Interesting article in Times 2 today (I only have hard copy; the soft copy is behind a paywall, sadly) with the above headline. US doctor Sara Gottfried is suggesting that for many of us women, the issue may be low testosterone. She argues that "traditional" dieting often doesn't work for women in the

Estradiol Side Effects
I’ve been extremely tired and nauseous lately. I believe these side effects are normal. Has anyone else experienced this? I do FET on the 27th by the way. I’m so nervous and excited!!

My Oligometastatic Journey Continues…
Hello friends, Thought I’d update you on my journey, with all its twists and turns. Let me remind you where I’ve been and what’s in store now… In the spring of 2015, at the age of 53, I was playing golf and hurt my back. Thought it was a pulled muscle. After a couple of months, with my back getting worse

Feeling really down, low AMH 1.3 - just about to start 2nd round
Hey, So I’m just about to start my second full cycle of IVF and my AMH results are in at 1.3 which is way lower than I was expecting. I’m 35 😞 Last round I was on 225 menopur and managed to get 10 eggs, (4 blasts) sadly none worked. This time the consultant is upping my stims to 450 (I think he said

KEEP RUNNING, KEEP SMILING
Today’s run was a joyous affirmation of the sensory delights of being alive and experiencing at first hand the richness of the Devon landscape, that I am lucky enough to live in. After an overnight torrent of rainfall, I opted for a largely lane based route to avoid the inevitable sticky mud that evolves
