High thyroid hormone link to low estrogen
Hi all, does anyone know if going through an early menopause which is causing estrogen levels to fall create a higher blood concentration of thyroid hormone levels. Please include links, no guessing please. Also after a few months on thyroid lowering drugs, folic acid levels have dropped below range

Can IVF cause endometriosis?
Hope everyone is keeping well! In my last frozen IVF transfer (my second transfer in total), the consultant found an endometrioma cyst on one of my ovaries. When one of these is found, I believe you’re automatically classified as having stage 3/4 endometriosis. But what I’m trying to acertain, is whether

Estrogen patches advice please!
Hi All, I’m about to start a FET cycle - my last one in June 2023 sadly ended in a BFN! Since then I’ve spoken to 2 different consultants - one suggested ading estrogen patches to my protocol, and the other is happy to go along with that plan. My lining was 7.6mm at my first scan last June. I haven’t

Help with results please 🙏
Hi, been Hashimotos/hypothyroid about 10 years. Was always on 225mg. Since perimenopause they've dropped me to 150 which I was reluctant but had to do. Stayed like this for 3 years but new Dr, new results - she wants to drop me again. Trying to balance HRT to help all pain and symptoms. Scared of how

No the case, I asked nicely, I quoted a few things, I asked for a trail on a increase, she wouldn't budge, she quoted that to have to much levo could make me unwell and they have to

Advice Needed Please
Hi. I’m hoping for some advice. I have an appointment next week to discuss starting on Prostap or Zolodex. I’ve been told I’d have to start HRT alongside it and I’m wondering what experiences people have have with this treatment. I can’t seem to make up my mind and the stress of worrying about it all

Breast lump
I am post menopause and have been taking HRT for 20years due to severe hot flushes! 6 months ago I felt a pea sized lump behind my nipple didn't worry too much then the lump started to get bigger. Went to GP who fast tracked me to Breast clinic with suspected Cancerous lump. I had my appointment yesterday

4 years post menopause, menstruation started again, any ideas why?
I’m asking for someone not on this forum. She is 52, went through menopause 4 years ago relatively easily. Now out of the blue it seems menstruation has started again, the full Monty, sore bosoms, cramps and bleeding. The bleeding she says is worse than even post natal, very heavy and she’s left feeling

*sensitive post* advice please - spotting/cramps 5 weeks 5 days

Peri fatigue and HRT
Hi, I’m new to this forum but a regular on RA forum which I find so helpful, I’m 46 and so presumed in peri-menopause, still have periods, bit erratically. I also have RA diagnosed 18 months ago. Which is now relatively well controlled on biologic. My GP had prescribed combined HRT as my RA does

Restless legs and peri menopause
Hi allNew to the group! I'm having a really bad time with insomnia because of RLS. I had it under control when I started on HRT. The times I've had RLS have been puberty and pregnancy. So does seem to be related to hormonal changes. I'm on highest does of HRT but seems it's not working anymore as RLS

Differences between oral, vaginal, patches and injectable estrogen?
Hello everyone, does anyone know if there are differences between oral, vaginal, patches and injectable estrogen for boosting the lining? I have had spotting while on progynova and patches, and while my doctor assures me that is normal, it still unnerves me so I would like to try another form of estrogen

Too old for HRT?
Hi everyone, I’m 66 and just started HRT. I’m on Lenzetto spray and Utrogestan. I keep worrying that I’m too old to be on HRT. Are there any other ladies out there who have just started at my age and if so, has it helped?

Feelings post egg retrieval
I had my first egg retrieval on Monday. All went well and we got 20 eggs, 12 of which have fertilised, so I'm really pleased with that. I was initially quite bloated and crampy for a couple of days, but that's subsided, however I'm having some other symptoms that I can't quite pin down a cause for. Since
