Help with latest results please
These are my latest thyroid results. I’m still struggling with hypo type symptoms but no medic will diagnose me. My latest cortisol blood test was good and I’ve managed to raise my oestradiol level by using hrt so I doubt it’s menopause that’s the culprit as all medics suggest. I’ve tried 25 and 50 levo

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

Didn't expect this
Hello, writing on behalf of my husband. Diagnosed less than a year ago, and being treated with Firmagon/Xtandi. Though the urologist tells us he is in remission with a PSA currently <0.13 the ADT is causing a poor QOL due to extreme fatigue, weight loss, muscle loss, nausea and food tastes bad, chronic

Guillain-Barré Syndrome after PCa Diagnosis... Anyone?

Suprecur not working and possible polyp
Hi everyone, just looking to see if anyone else has had any issues with suprecur not working for medicated fet and uncertainty around polyps. In January I started suprecur and estradiol three times a day from day 2. At the scan (day 13) it looked like a follicle had grown and possible cyst so I had

Bleeding during 2WW
Has anyone experienced bleeding after an FET whilst still on oestradiol and progesterone? I thought that would stop periods. I am 11dp5ft, had a BFN. The clinic said to test again in 7 days but I'm bleeding. The irony is I don't get periods so not sure what this is! I've tried to contact them but they

3 weeks done.
3 weeks of not smoking. Physical side effects gone. Still crave a cigarette every day but haven't given in. Using nicotine patches which seem to be working. Sense of smell has definitely improved. I can smell smoke on other people which I couldn't before. Still have a slight cough but nothing compared

Estradiol just won't go down
None of my docs understand how my estradiol remains highly elevated (above 100), My T is next to zero, I am lean, DHT in the normal range, taking 3 mg of Arimidex for several months. The estradiol was never checked until after my PSA began to rise after several month of successful BAT therapy. So

Interesting Numbers
Those that followed me - metastatic at 57, chemotherapy and hormone therapy clinical trial, stopping Lupron/Eligard in February 2010, and starting dose testosterone replacement on Androgel in 2011. Four weeks ago I stopped the gel and replaced it with 0.4 ml of Testosterone Cypionate inter muscular twice

My 46 Month Transdermal Estradiol (tE2) Update

HRT Evorel Conti.
I am 57 and have been on Tibolone 2.5 for 3 years and my recent bloods show: PROGESTERONE 0.5 nmol/L, TESTOSTERONE <0.4 nmol/L, PROLACTIN * 627 mIU/L, 17-Beta OESTRADIOL <44 pmol/L. They said my estrogen was unreadable as it was that low it was under the level to read. I have started Evorel Conti

Newbie needing help to understand blood results.
I had the remaining half of my thyroid removed at the end of august last year due to a non malignant tumour. (First half 10 years ago for same reason) I live in Spain and am under the care of a private endocrinologist. I was immediately started on 100mg of levothyroxine (brand Eutirox) and calcium

Off-Off-Topic. Estrogen:Androgen Ratio.
New study below [1]. Back in 2004 the research on PubMed indicated that the androgen receptor [AR} was generally wild-type at diagnosis and that AR alterations were a consequence of castration therapy. Conversely, the estrogen environment was generally screwed up at diagnosis. The protective beta estrogen

Dogs and Hot flashes
I have tried everything for night time hot flashes. It seems estradiol patches are helping a little but concerned about side effects. I never have hot flashes when cuddling with a Poodle. The problem is that neither of my current Poodles likes to cuddle all night. My former Sophie would spoon the whole

Racing Heart and Chatty Brain in Morning
I starred on NP Thyroid 16 days ago. I have worked up to 1 grain and started that yesterday. My sleep has been improving. My worse symptoms are a racing heart and chatty brain when I first wake up. As the day goes, I get very tired and sometimes more emotional. I just want to wake up calm. My Natropath
