Endo and perimenopause: what treatment?
Hi ladies, Being 50ish, having been told 6 months ago that I have endometriosis, but not the level of it, or location (I am deducting from the pains). How is endo (i.e high oestrogen) treated with medication, and also suffering from perimenopause symptoms (i.e either oestrogen dominance and/or low oestrogen

Hrt after hysterectomy leaving ovaries and endometriosis? Combined of just estrogen?
Hi hoping for any advice? My nurse today said I could try hrt patches as I do had hysterectomy with ovaries that are left and playing up. Originally my consultant said I couldn’t have hrt. She has given me combined patches of estrogen and progesterone to hopefully not stimulate endo. she wasn’t sure

Blood tests
Hello, are there any blood tests Endometreosis sufferers should have particularly to see if we have to much oestrogen In our bodies and to check liver function. I went to my doctor after being diagnosed with chocolate cysts, for a blood test to check everything and I was told I would have to pay!

Ellest Solo to Premarin
Hi, I've been on Ellest Solo for about 6 years now following TAH BSO and never stopped suffering from stiffness and aches feeling like 100 instead of 51. Just had full works blood test results back and all ok so Dr put me on the subjugated oestrogens from female horses- better known as Premarin.

Thyroxine and fluctuating hormones
Hi Just wondering if there’s any research on naturally produced female hormones and thyroid hormones? For example, I know that taking extra oestrogen can mean you need extra thyroxine. I currently have no periods as I’m breastfeeding a 1 year old; they didn’t return for 2 years last time. But I

Mistake with Progynova dose... help!
Had a positive test post FET last week and have just reread my paperwork which says I should have increased my Progynova from 3 x day to 4 x day ..... a bit annoyed that the clinic didn’t stress this when I notified of my positive test. However I feel fine - positive testing still, no spotting. I know

Think I am being set up by Dr's.
I don't know if I should be posting this rant under thyroid UK, thoughI have done before. All I know is that following advice from Thyroid UK, and after sourcing T3 and metavive, iron, vitamins, and supplements - I am so much better, and no longer have the symptoms of CFS, although I am extremely depressed

Gaining weight on Levo
Hey everyone, first time posting: First a little backstory: Diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2002 at age 25, put on Levothyroxine and settled on 75mg/6 days a week. Was on this dosage for the years following. In August 2017 my endo told me that my hypo is autoimmune based so I started googling and found

Lining has right pattern but won’t thicken. Anyone else had this?
Hi I’m attempting my second frozen transfer. Lining started well at baseline scan but had not progressed beyond 6.9mm at second scan a week later so the clinic upped my Progynova dose from 8mg to 10mg daily. Just had my third scan after 3 days of the higher Progynova dose, and my lining has the right

Feeling very puffy on levo and HRT
Hi there. I was diagnosed 8 weeks ago as having borderline hypothyroidism and prescribed Levothyroxine, 50ug.

Bisphosphonates and Afib
Due to breast cancer 20 months ago which was estrogen positive I have to take Anastrozole which is a AI (aromatase inhibitor). This can deplete bone density quickly hence I had to have a dexa scan which found I had osteoporosis. Due to this I was prescribed Alendronic Acid which had awful side effects

Help Reviewing My Mothers Thyroid Bloods
Hi everyone! I’m posting this on behalf of my mother who was diagnosed With hypothyroidism over twenty years ago. Her GP has been monitoring her over the years but recently she’s not been feeling so well. Her GP wanted to decrease her dose after testing here TSH which was very slightly “below range”.

Hi all just a quicky. If high Tsh also is associated with low estrogen then once on replacement thyroid hormone hpw would you tell if oestrogen is low.And how without doi.g further test to establish if its thyroid or oestrogen do they put you on thyroid replacement when it could have been estrogen
