HRT question: how long did it take to feel the effects?
I have been struggling with crushing anxiety, insomnia, depression for a few months. It's unlike anything I have ever experienced. I started HRT last week, and am hoping for a little easing of symptoms soon! Just curious about other women's experiences. Please share!

Results of MRI
So saw the endometriosis consultant today and he was very good. My MRI scan came back and showed extensive endometriosis that has obliterated my Pouch of Douglas and fully attached my rectum and bowel to my cervix. I've got an endo cyst on my left ovary and blood in left fallopian tube. Cervix is swollen

Help with blood results
I recently posted here for advice on whether I need levothyroxine as I have been subclinical for 10 years and now my tsh seems to be creeping up the last few weeks from 4.88 to 5.59 and now 6.15 all in the space of 3/4 weeks. I wonder if it is linked to the introduction of testosterone, I started hrt

Nausea after valve replacement and bypass
Had my mitral valve replaced and a bypass 4 weeks ago now, and have been home 3 weeks. Suffered nausea and lack of appetite from day 1 out of surgery, and aches and pains until this weekend - miraculously they all seem to have gone away. However the nausea seems to actually be getting worse, took me

Diagnosis and menopause
So yesterday was the day I got my scan done by the gynecology consultant she was very good and explained everything. I have alot of blood flow to my uterus and I have adenomyosis present in the back wall of my uterus. Part of me was shocked as I didn't think I'd have it deep down but It was confirmed

No stamina
I am confident I have my thyroid hormones at right level and most of my symptoms are gone. I am slowly losing weight, alert, happy, skin is better. My arthritis plays up hence the inflammation but my main issue is lack of stamina. I can only really do one thing a day after which I am wiped out and need

How long symptoms stay
hi I had 1 injection of Prostap end of sept and unfortunately I suffered with, headaches, insomnia, no appetite. I became really depressed and anxious as well. My dr said it works in your system 5/6 weeks and then stops and will start to leave my body. So I’m 4 weeks now past that. I’m just trying

Ovaries or no Ovaries
I'm 46 next week and have recently been diagnosed with a large fibroid approx 15cm x 10cm and also an ovarian cyst. Consultant has recommended an hysterectomy as I'm also having severe bleeding during my period and am very anaemic. Hysterectomy is also being recommended as my mother had breast cancer

Stuck. Help Plz.
Hi, thanks for all the info here. I’ve been reading for hours, think I’ve tried to absorb too much too quickly as my brain feels like it’s going to pop! I’ve been feeling nauseous with low pain headaches for a month so had a GP apt last week. Bloods were done and all appears normal apart from thyroid

Advice about recent NDT thyroid blood tests and high SHBG
Hi there! Is there any connection between high SHBG and taking NDT thyroid medication? I've been feeling better than ever on my Erfa thyroid medication and I don't feel over medicated at all, but I had high SHBG. My estradiol also seems high. I've read that one reason for high SHBG can be hyperthyroidism

Aids post knee replacement
I'm due a total knee replacement next month. I already have an easy reach grabber, a leg raiser and a raised toilet seat from when I had a new hip last year. Are there other things that people have found helpful? Thanks 😊 x

HRT and migraines
I'd be interested to know if there are women out there who can definitely say that taking HRT has helped them with migraines. I know that the research says that there is no evidence that it helps, if anything, probably makes it worse. Or were you prescribed some medication for menopause and it actually
