Does anybody have any success with natural progesterone cream?
I'm currently doing a Complete Female Hormone Assessment saliva test, as I'm wondering if my progesterone/estrogen are also out of balance. It measures Estradiol (estrogen), Progesterone and Testosterone over a 28 day cycle, so quite a tedious test and rather expensive! Seeing as my DHEA and cortisol

ferritin levels
Hello, about 1-2 weeks ago I had an routine appointment with my specialist. I informed her about the symptoms I was still experiencing - long list of them. As a result the doctor wanted me to be tested for thyroid profile, bone, liver and renal profile, ferritin, vitamin D level, LH, FSH, oestradiol,

Anyone tried the new type of pill Zoely?
Has anyone tried the pill Zoely? my specialist mentioned it to me. He said it's a new type of bcp which is supposed to reduce the number of side effects which normally come with the standard bcp, because it uses a different type of estrogen and progesterone. I was just wondering for those who are on

High levels of estrogen.
Graves’, TT 2011 on 100/125mcg. Active and aggressive TED, 52. Returning from the Endo visit and being dismissed for the second time in two years, I have been told I am hyper despite knowing I am hypo and to reduce my meds. I had to fight to get back to see an Endo based on bloods I paid for myself
