Will HRT( estrogen patch) take away hot flashes and feeling hot all the time especially in my face?
I'm about to start the estrogen patch in a couple days after I see my gyno. I have no estrogen due to the fact that I haven't had a period in over 20 years due to chronic anorexia. So I'm having severe hot flashes and I feel hot all the time especially in my face. She feels the HRT and the will give

Radiotherapy for prostate local and retroperitoneal nodes
ADT of lupron and abiraterone has been pretty tolerable so far, almost four months - maybe I got cocky. Started my SBRT 28 fraction 70 Gy radiotherapy four days ago, mild to moderate urinary urgency and some burn started almost immediately. Diarrhea started at night after day four, mild so far. How

Dry-Needling and Low Level Laser Therapy By Physios: Does this really work and can it worsen tinnitus?
I triggered tinnitus and hyperacusis over 7 years ago now. Luckily it always went eventually but as of about 4 months ago it seems as if it is here to stay and a lot worse. An otologist told me that areas I said gave me pain could be consistent with TMJ issues and that he worked with a physio who could

Estrodiol and PC
My husband has been rediagnosed with NMPC he is on ADT which is holding the Testosterone very low but psa shot upto 82. New MO is starting Enzalutimide plus continuing ADT. Not looking forward to the side effects, but will perservere until psa drops. We have been discussing using Estradiol to help

Medical OR chemical castration
Hi All, Ok I am 79 and still in great physical condition. PR and ADT for 2 years. To date no unusual physical side effects other than zero sex drive. It looks as thought I will be on ADT until I die. PSA increasing monthly so I will try other chemicals. I want to remain in good shape until my number

Hot flashes from lack of estrogen
I have had anorexia for 27 yrs now. I'm 39 female. For the past 6 months or so I have been having severe hot flashes and I got my hormones checked at the gynecologist and she told me that I have low estrogen due to the malnutrition caused by the anorexia which is making my pituitary gland not produce

If these were your results what would you do?
So despite increasing my T3 dose my FT3 is staying at 5. My FT4 is falling. My symptoms are mostly in check these days but the fatigue and malaise is creeping higher again and it's starting to inhibit what I can do. (Noting that my estrogen is below range and I'm hoping to start HRT soon.) I'm sporadic

Chronic over heating and night sweats anyone?

I am really struggling, I am wondering if I have hashimotos. Diagnosed with an underactive thyroid in march ( the day my dad died) just 6 months after losing my mother in law.

Possible improvement of speech in Parkinsons patients with the encouragement and implementation of a daily walking routine.
The following postulation is a hope that our speech can be improved by implementing a consistent routine of daily walking. I discovered this amazingly beautiful yet simple concept by accident š¤š, after watching my 18 month old nephew have dramatic improvements in speech after graduating to walking

How important is missing 2 months of ADT?
I'm one month into RT and ADT for 9 months. I chose monthly Eligard. The Urology office made a mistake and came in with a 3-month dose. When I told the nurse I had communicated my 1-month preference prior, she left the room. The Dr. came in, eyeballed the dosage, removed 2/3 and I received it. I was

Managing side effects of ADT
I have found that Richard Wassersug has many blog postings related to ways to manage ADT side effect on the LifeOnAdt.com website. I also found the new version of his book has a great section on dealing with relationship issues. It was very helpful in keeping my relationship with Coco on track when

Will HRT help me?
I have been having bladder sensitivity and urge incontinence for about 3 years. I am 67 and postmenopausal for about 15 years. Is it too late to start HRT and if I did, would it make any difference now?
