Ovaleap just before FET ?
Hello ladies, I am starting my second transfer after my failed 1st frozen embryo transfer. During my first transfer I was given estradiol to increase my endometrial thickness which worked great and I had my endometrial thickness of 11mm during my first FET. Since my 1st FET failed due to unknown reasons

How many of you are using tE2 as your only form of ADT?
Since we have over 10,000 men on this forum and just a few of you reply to transdermal estradiol posts, I really am curious as to how many are using this 'novel' (for lack of a better word) form of ADT exclusively? I for one and a few comrades that I have befriended here are having 'damn' good luck with

Decision Matrix Conundrum
So I completed IMRT to my left hemi-pelvis with boost to 2 nodes there that lit up on Ga-PSMA scan last October. Used adjuvant ADT with degarelix plus estradiol patches. Approximately 5-6 months until T levels recovered. Post RT my PSA fell by about half (.25 to .15 and staying there for 3 months now

Update: 25 months on transdermal estradiol (tE2) and counting.
Just received the results of my blood work drawn on 5/14/2020 and needless to say I am quite pleased. I am self medicating with E2 gel only and haven't seen a doctor since 7/2017. The ONLY side effect is gynecomastia (man boobs) which I don't perceive as a big deal. I apply an amount as pictured twice

Question on Clearblue ovulation test
Hi I bought clearblue tests which are supposed to track estradiol and LH and it says on the package to test after your longest sleep. So I have tested every morning. The estradiol rise was caught by the test (flashing smile) but 10 days later, the LH was not caught (non flashing smile). In parallel

RRP Oct 2016 with slowly rising uPSA over past year in addition to several other issues I’m dealing with including hypogonadism, intermittent TRT, osteopenia, wide fluctuations in lab values regarding Estradiol, DHT, TT, fT, FSH, LH; depending upon treatment, and most recently a “pain in the butt – literally

Stony Brook Estrogen Trial for COVID-19.
I recently mentioned that testosterone was an immunosuppressor & that there might be a COVID survival advantage for males with testosterone [T] below 350 ng/dL, say. But when T approaches zero, so does estradiol [E2], because E2 is created from T via the aromatase enzyme. (When E2 is less than ~12 pg

Estradiol vs ADT?
I seek the experience (and even the opinion!) of the hive mind on this: I hear and read occasionally about oestradiol as being equivalent to LHRH agonists for testosterone suppression minus some of the famous nasty side effects. My instinct is that it’s too good to be true but I’m keeping an open

Help to interpret 24 h saliva test results, please
In January ´20, I ordered a 24 h saliva test kit from Genova Diagnostics (overnight delivery using DHL, samples kept refrigerated at all times). The results showed slightly elevated cortisol levels throughout the day. I´d really appreciate comments on the results (reference ranges in brackets): Drugs

Endo, the pill and kidneys?
I’ve been getting quite a lot of pain in my sides and mid back deep inside recently which usually occurs as the day is beginning to end. I also get stomach pains which I’ve had for ages but usually disappears when I’m on birth control. After dinner it usually starts and I feel bloated in my back if that

Periods worsening every time I take a break from hormones?
On the evra patch, took it off to have a period before switching to the pill (logynon) as the patch was causing high blood pressure and palpitations. Every time I take my patch off if seems to get worse. This morning I had a tightening pain from my bottom left abdomen which traveled up through my ribs

CRPC & Transdermal Estrogen
New to PubMed, below [1]. British, but seemingly unrelated to the estradiol PATCH trial. "This study was carried out to determine the safety and effectiveness of transdermal estrogens in CRPC." {Although note the later use of DES.} This was a dose-escalation study. "A starting dose of 50 mcg/24 hours

Confusing Blood Test Results
Hi, I'd welcome your thoughts on recent results please, some seem a bit strange and I'm unsure whether I need to change dose (currently on 50mg Levothyroxine and 25mg Liothyronine). I had the test at 9am, fasting and took meds after the test. I use the Better You sprays for Vit D and Vit B, and also

Terrified of more ADT, looking for advice
In 2015, I quit ADT 12 months into a 24 month sentence because I couldn't stand it any longer. PSA rising 4 years later. Terrified. Looking for advice. To elaborate: The side effects: fatigue, hot flashes, sexlessness, mental fog, aches, and depression became overwhelming at about the 8 month mark.

IVF Day 5 of Gonal-F
Hi all, so I've been doing stim injections of Gonal-F, tonight is my 5th one. I've had 2 scans in the past few days. I have quite a few follicles (she never told me how many, but I counted at least 10 to 12 on the screen!). They are all still quite small... the first lady said they are all under 10mm
