HRT question. Sorry, totally off topic but I need an answer quickly!
Oh cripes! I started HRT 8 days ago. (Estrogen patches and utrogestan). I'm on cycle day 21 and I've started my period this evening. What do I do now?! Do I carry on taking utrogestan until I've completed 2 weeks?

Low tsh 0.01 and low t4 12/13 even on levothyroxine
I have had bloods done and tsh is majorly supressed and t4 is low even on levothyroxine. 12/13 t4 (range 9-19) I have tingling and leg swelling daily and I'm unsure what this may be. Any advice or similar story's would be helpful

Hi! I am writing my story hoping to find some advice. I have a 5 year old daughter, who arrived with a natural pregnancy by pure chance, we were already starting pma due to problems with oligospermia. In the last 3 years we have had 3 cycles of icsi, in two different clinics. First two cycles 6 blastocysts

How to persuade TSH-obsessed Endo I'm not over-replaced (on T3-only)?
Hello, I am posting because I'm hoping for some advice for an Endo meeting on Tuesday. There is a possibility that the NHS Endocrinology team at my local hospital might just be contemplating 'widening' their approach to T3 (historically for me, a violent slam in the face 'NO! Get off T3 immediately or

lower levothyroxine
I had a blood test done in October 2023 it came back with my TSH at 0.01 (range 0.27-4.2) and my T4 was 17.9 (range 12-22) so the doctor reduced my Levothyroxine from 75mcg to 50mcg one day and 75mcg the next. In January 2024 I had another blood test done, unfortunately they didnt do my T4 even though

stopping vitamins before tests
hi everyone, I can’t remember if I have to stop my vitamin b12 and D before doing my medichecks test - the one that tests for t3, t4, tsh, folate, b12, D, ferritin and inflammation. I’m taking the vitamins in spray form now so no biotin - is there any other reason I have to stop before testing? Thanks

Fisft FET - BFN 😭 Need some next steps advice as will be switching the clinic
I just completed my first FET with a 4BB embryo. Unfortunately it resulted in BFN 😭💔 Our NHS-funded round is now over: we only managed to produce 2 blastocysts out of 10 eggs collected. Fresh transfer resulted in chemical 😢, and now failed FET. We will be switching the clinic for a private treatment

Ovarian PRP Rejuvenation
Hello everyone, So I am considering ovarian PRP as my amh is below 3, so really low, and I have not had many eggs collected in previous cycles. I had a look into Greece, but want to know if any of you have tried Ovarian PRP and what was your experience like? Thank you and all the blessings for all

Prescribed NDT on NHS now doctor refusing to prescribe. Help!
I has to move GP Practise and before moving to current one I asked to speak to a GP. Receptionist said it wasnt necessary if a nhs consultant has recommended they will prescribe. So wouldn't get a doctor to phone me. I moved. All seem good but my repeats were not being set up. So became concerned.

🤷🏻♀️ Sudden jump up in T4
Morning all 😉 I have Hashimoto’s and have had radio active iodine treatment over 16 years ago so have been on Levothyroxine since. I’m familiar with all the testing and get regularly tested by my GP. I also private test occasionally to check my T3 as my local area do not test that on the NHS. I

Thyroid test results
I tested out of range high for THYROGLOBULIN ANTIBODIES & THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES. I have been told by a doctor I do not have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis as the rest of my thyroid results are in range, however I may develop the thyroiditis in the future. Follow up testing is the plan as other test

Book on hypothyroidism as I wait for Levo to kick in?
Hi all, and thanks for having me here. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in October and started on 25mg Levo per day. Last week I saw my GP for (I think) an unrelated matter. She looked at my blood results from December (TSH 2.35, down from 4.39 in October, and T4 9.2, up from 7.9 in October) and
