Female Testosterone Replacement Users
My endo has suggested I replace very low levels of testosterone with Androfeme, to complement my existing HRT package of Lenzetto and Utrogestan. After learning Androfeme costs £150.00 upward, and that my NHS GP already has female patients supplementing testosterone, I approached him to take on my prescription

I really don't know where to start with all this as it is a bit confusing and complex. 20 years ago i was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism and i was prescribed Levothyroxine and my health rapidly declined. I spent 6 years housebound as i was so poorly and despite may trips to the GP and numerous tests i

Cancelled cycle
Hi everyone, just wanted to see if anyone had experienced a cycle cancellation due to the risk of OHSS. After 8 days of stimulation, I've been told that my cycle had to be cancelled as too many follicles have been developing (29 were seen on the scan) and my estrogen levels were way too high (3,500

An Important thing to know if considering Estrogen Therapy.
My experience using estrogen as my only form of ADT has been positive. However, when my psa started rising and I began to feel pain in my spine and pelvis my MO put me on Zometa (bone drug IV every 3 mo). Was it necessary? I have no idea. I now get mildly sick for about 36 hours after the infusion

Bone Density - Dexa
I read somewhere that in the pre-Lupron days when DES (Diethylstilbestrol) was commonly used, bone loss was not a major issue. My 19-year history falls into three phases: i) continuous testosterone [T] ii) alternating 3-month periods of ADT & T iii) my version of BAT (LongBAT) - a single T injection

Bone Health issues re:Bisphosphonnates, etc. ????
I'm back again for further research about the bone density medications, and now wondering about the use of bisphosphonates, denosumab and teriparatide? My PCP is suggesting these, but he's not current with the research about estrogen and testosterone use for PCa care. My backstory is that I'm suffering

Natural FET cycle straight after medicated - any successes switching regime
Hi again, Sorry for the number of posts this week - what a steep learning curve! I've been offered to start my next FET as soon as I get my withdrawal bleed. I had some difficulty tolerating the oestrogen last cycle and by the time transfer day came, I didn't feel great. I'm also quite petite (4ft 10

ERA, EMMA, ALICE
Hi, I have endo and adenomyosis. My doctor has advised me to do a mock cycle with Oestrogen and Progesterone and do ERA test. I am concerned if Oestrogen will flare up my endo/ adeno. Also, for patients with endo/adeno, who have done this test - is it more likely that implantation window will be slightly

First BFN today 😢 - trying to decide on back to back or a break.
Although I was expecting the news, it was heartbreaking to hear the words "I'm sorry..." and have our suspicions confirmed that there was failed implantation.We are now faced with making a decision in quick time as our Dr has signed us off to start our next Frozen cycle as soon as I have the withdrawal

Enzalutamide monotherapy can improve the quality of live for advanced prostate cancer patients. Thank you, Prof. Tombal, for promoting this arm in the Embark trial! Enzalutamide does not lower testosterone and estrogen, it even increases the level of these. This avoids the following side effects of

Post-menopausal PD friends: Estrogen patch?
My gynecologist just Rx'd an estrogen (plus progesterone because I still have a uterus) patch. My MDS says he's fine with me trying it. Does anyone here have any experience with it? I'm just wondering if there are any benefits or "gotchas" that are unique to WWP. I'm 57, a few years post-menopausal,

Help interpreting results & likelihood of diagnosis if I saw a private practitioner.
Good afternoon, I’m at my wit’s end and would very much appreciate help interpreting recent blood tests and symptoms. I previously posted a few weeks back with details of private tests carried out with Monitor my Health on 24/1/23. They were as follows: TSH 4.74 mu/L (0.27 - 4.2) FT4 13.9 pmol/
