Hormone testing and Endo
I just wanted to share with you – I've just been to a private clinic to get my hormones tested and it's come back with very low testosterone and low oestrogen, I'm also waiting for my laparoscopy at the moment and planning on having the coil at the same time. Has anyone else looked into their hormone

Will slow-growing follicles catch up?
Hi all, I have just embarked on my 2nd round of IVF. I have low amh (4) and endo stage 4. At my baseline scan I was told I had an AFC of 12, but today (day 4 of stims) I was told that my AFC is 8 and only 2 follicles look like they are growing as they should (2 were 9/10 mm and the rest below 6).

Dog... man's best friend
It is fascinating to me that our best friend, the dog, is the fellow-sufferer of PC that helped us learn how to treat the disease. Likewise fascinating is the post-dog work of Charles Huggins... this 1966 paper tells us we can potentially treat PC by removing testosterone, as we commonly do today...

Constant thin uterus lining and TShaped uterus
Hi. I’ve had constant issues with my lining and have had 2 ops to remove scarring. 6.7mm is the thickest it’s ever been. We have 2 frozen blastocysts waiting to be transferred (using donor eggs) but are in a catch 22. I’m on 3 estrogen patches, 6mg of progynova and aspirin...again! I’ve been reading

update on changed cancer
Lots of water under the bridge since I last posted. Had left breast removed because of wound that would not heal. Tissue sent for testing and came back Progesterone positive changed from estrogen positive. My young oncologist did not know how to treat this. Decided to wait until new scans. No meds

Aromatase, estrogen, and how (and WHERE) they work?
I have fallen into the hormone-hole of trying to figure out the why, where and how of this disease... AND of its treatment. It has recently occurred to me that many (most?) of the problems that men experience on ADT are not actually directly from low-T, but they are from low-E (and that is a direct result

Parenteral estrogens as first-line (mono)therapy?
I know high-dose oral DES had lots of problems and fell out of favor decades ago, mainly because of oral delivery and too-high dosing. What about the use of transdermal estrogen? I have heard about patches used by men who have already undergone prior ADT, as second line therapy or for QoL improvement

Update on my sister
Many thanks to all of you who responded last time I posted a few days ago. My sister has had the results of her biopsy back and her cancer is progesterone and oestrogen positive and her2 negative. Could someone let me know what that means in terms of her treatment going forward. Last time she had BC

After treatment of Lutitium
Hi My husband has metastatic PC. We hv been treated with the anti androgens, until the PSA started to rise again then the chemo, but after 3 treatments the PSA was only rising. Then we tried immunotherapy didn't work for us. Then estrogen which was a disaster for my husband. And then we knew about lutitium

History repeating
What a nightmare! So despite having started on 8mg oestrogen, higher than normal 6mg I’m only measuring at 7.2 at the thickest point. Upped to 10mg for 3 days. Transfer delayed. This is like my first FET. Makes me all nervous. Fingers crossed for Thursday’s repeat scan🤞🏻

Having to go off NDT after several years and back on levo only - how to explain it?
OK, so I went off NDT and back on T4 only a few weeks ago, after suffering bothersome symptoms for several months, such as profuse sweating (waking up every morning in a bed drenched in sweat), racing heart, high blood pressure (treated with perindopril 10 mg daily, GP wants to switch me to beta blockers

Estrogen Receptor-β and Progesterone Receptor
New study below [1]. "The roles of estrogen and progesterone in human prostate carcinogenesis have been only recently recognized." Not true. Some recognized it at least 15 years ago, but it is not close to being accepted in the US, so far as I can tell. It has long been know, however, that ERbeta is

When to start Estrogen after Bueserilin?
I have been taking Bueserilin since CD21 and just got my period today. If the progynova/estrogen is to thicken the lining, when do you start it? I would think there would need to be a good bleed before starting the estrogen and yet my clinic says to start today, (CD1)? My lining was 11 last transfer

Anyone thought about using estriol instead of estradiol?
Has anyone considered using estriol cream instead of estradiol? A summary as to why it looks interesting: Estriol agonizes ER-beta (ESR2) more than ER-alpha [1]. ER-beta agonism is associated with anti-proliferative effects in a variety of cancers [2]. Estradiol agonizes both about the same [1]. The

Bone Strengthening
What does everybody take/use for a bone strengthened? Do all of you take calcium? I was given one IV of Zometa but I didn’t receive anymore as it cause my blood calcium levels to drop extremely low. When I asked my oncologist what I should be taking to increase my bone strength he said he wasn’t up
