Confirmation on my HRT strategy please
Hi there - I am on lenzetto oestrogen spray - 1 pump a day and 200mg of utrogestan (progesterone). I have been reading around and atm, keeping track of the cycle is a pain.

Can anyone discuss having a full hysterectomy with me please?
I have a benign cyst on my ovary, which seems to have been there ages and shows no signs of going away on it's own. Ive been having a lot of symptoms which may be caused by it. I am 64 so of course have gone through the menopause. My consultant wants to give me a full hystectomy, but I am uncertain

Sjogrens, HRT and a very helpful Dr!!
Hi everyone Following on from my last post about feeling rubbish from various symptoms to do with stomach and digestion, I spoke to a Dr earlier. She has been very helpful. First of all she is writing to Rheumatology to ask them to see me. I guess like other people, I haven't had a face to face appointment

Still suffering with memory loss
I’m due to have my bloods taken on Thursday, should more than just TSH levels be taken? I posted last year about my memory and it still hasn’t improved. Since then I’ve changed GPs and also started HRT. Most of my physical symptoms have gone since starting HRT but my memory is really bothering me.

Diagnosed but…. What now?
I’ve been diagnosed with ‘severe’ endo and although it is great to finally know what it is - I am so confused about the next step!! They basically said it’s low and deep and very near blood vessels and nerve endings so removal, although possible, would require very highly skilled surgery and will likely

HRT Evorel Conti.
I am 57 and have been on Tibolone 2.5 for 3 years and my recent bloods show: PROGESTERONE 0.5 nmol/L, TESTOSTERONE <0.4 nmol/L, PROLACTIN * 627 mIU/L, 17-Beta OESTRADIOL <44 pmol/L. They said my estrogen was unreadable as it was that low it was under the level to read. I have started Evorel Conti

Hormones
Do you think hormone imbalance has anything to do with Parkinsons, hormones play a big factor with neurotransmitters. Have any Women with PD felt a difference if you take hormone replacement after menopause. I'm sure mens hormones change as well, but no familiar with that. Just curious. Thank

HRT could be available over the counter.
