HRT and Hashimotos
I am on 75mcg Levo and 15 of T3. I started HRT 2 weeks ago, 2 pumps of the oestrogen gel in morning and 100 mcg of progesterone at night. I have felt very tired and flat since Tuesday and am wondering does HRT mess with thyroid meds?

HRT Following hysterectomy
Hi, I’ve recently had total hysterectomy and oophorectomy with extensive excision of endo.

*Sensitive* Early miscarriage? Or still hope?
As mentioned in a previous post I started spotting/bleeding Sunday after getting a BFP on Tuesday (8th). This had continued all this week, it’s definitely been heavier at times but not full on flow and has ranged from brown to red to pink. I would say there has been some clotting but there is a a lot

Poor T3 conversion
Hi not posted on here for a long time as I’ve been really well on levothyroxine for around 5 years now. Had dose increased yearly as test results required but recently been feeling similar symptoms to when my tsh levels are too high... fatigue, low mood, muscle pains generally just fuzzy. TSH levels

Prognova wrong dosage
I’m started my estrogen patches last Sunday and one estrogen tablet a day in preparation for my FET cycle. In the past I’ve been on 6 prognova tablets a day as my linning has been slow/stubborn to build up. I’ve just looked at my meds tonight and I’ve made a mega mistake. I should have been taking 1

Pretty quick failure of ADT + Zytiga... next?
Quick history: 2019 PSA of 20, a few probable spinal mets, bicalutamide monotherapy mid-2020 for six months failed early-2021 after PSA dropped to 3.8. Tried to initiate ADT via tE2 with estrogen patches in Spring 2021, but could not get T to castrate levels, stubbornly above 150 even at higher doses

Confirmation on my HRT strategy please
Hi there - I am on lenzetto oestrogen spray - 1 pump a day and 200mg of utrogestan (progesterone). I have been reading around and atm, keeping track of the cycle is a pain. Now, I understand i can just choose to take the 200mg of progesterone (the Utogestan) for 12 days starting on the same day each

Can anyone discuss having a full hysterectomy with me please?
I have a benign cyst on my ovary, which seems to have been there ages and shows no signs of going away on it's own. Ive been having a lot of symptoms which may be caused by it. I am 64 so of course have gone through the menopause. My consultant wants to give me a full hystectomy, but I am uncertain

And so the journey begins again...
After over a year since my last cycle failed, I start oestrogen on my next bleed, so any day now. I don't tend to post often, but read your posts and feel for all of you on this long and difficult journey. Wishing you all success x

Diagnosed but…. What now?
I’ve been diagnosed with ‘severe’ endo and although it is great to finally know what it is - I am so confused about the next step!! They basically said it’s low and deep and very near blood vessels and nerve endings so removal, although possible, would require very highly skilled surgery and will likely

HRT and Ovarian Cancer
Hi everyone. I was diagnosed end of 2020. Stage 1c endometriod adenocarcinoma at the age of 41. I was told I wasn't allowed HRT and assumed they meant forever.. so I figured out ways to help my body get through the menopause. Now just over a year later I'm doing great. I'm waiting for my yearly ct

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

Sorry for constantly posting but no where else to turn. Does anyone know Is there any specialist I can go to who specialise in B12 in the Essex (England) area, I just need some guidance as I feel like I’m sinking in all the information and trying to treat myself, am finding it so complicated to know

Light headed, pins and needles, headaches
Hi Struggling with light headedness for several months and my tinnitus has got louder … or maybe I’m just not coping as well with it! Pins and needles in my hands and underlying headaches. I feel a bit ‘foggy’. I’m currently on 75mcg/100mcg Levothyroxene on alternate days, plus 15mcg Liothyronine

Doing much better on synthetic than bio-identical HRT
Sorry if this question has been asked before. I have been on HRT for the past five years, now 52. The worst symptoms have been hot flushes day and night, profuse night sweats and mood swings. I first saw a functional doctor who put me on bio-identical HRT (Oestrogel and Utrogestan). I never experienced
