HRT / zolodex / hormone treatment help
Hi all. I posted recently about my concerns regarding zolodex etc. I think my only next steps is a complete hysterectomy due to my issues. HOWEVER. That being said, everyone seems to manage better withHRT and I'm looking to speak with people who have never been able to tolerate any form of hormone treatment

TSH higher after stopping Biotin
After decades of telling my doctor that I have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism and being told everything was normal as TSH was between 2.8 and 4 [0.38 - 5.33], I discovered a few weeks back that the Biotin supplement that I have been taking for all of that time could have been interferring with the

I've been on a treatment of 125mcg of Levothyroxine and alternating days of 5mcg and 7mcg of liothyronine. I have been feeling better on this dose, and was slightly too highly

Help with results - what would you do?
Hello I finally got a private endo to agree to up my meds from 75mcg levothyroxine to 100 or112.5 if I felt it necessary in July 2023 allowing my TSH to fall below range, and that I understood and was willing to take the risks. My 3 pm slump was dangerous as I was fighting to stay awake on the way

Does HRT estrogen patch and progesterone pill cause weight gain?
So now my big question is does HRT cause weight gain? See now my doctor changed her mind and she is going to let me do the estrogen patch and take the progesterone pill. But I am terrified because I've never been on hormone replacement therapy and I am a person who has had anorexia for over 25 years

fatigue gritty eyes freezing cold
hi, I am very fatigued and have very gritty eyes and I am freezing cold very out of breath and have a fast heart standing up. Before I approach my GP what tests do I need to check my thyroid? Will they only check TSH? Will a blue horizon gold test tell me everything I need to know? My last test was

Has anyone had orbital decompression for graves eye disease?
Hi I have Graves eye disease and I am considering orbital decompression. I also have Graves. Will it leave scars? Will it cause numbness due to nerve damage on my face? I am told this is likely. I would like to hear from anyone who has had this surgery. Do you recommend? Thanks

Hello lovely people. I recently had my bloods done and met with my endocrinologist, and wanted to ask your thoughts. I am currently on 87.5mcg Levothyroxine and 25mcg T3 daily.
