at last I can try some HRT
I have been prescribed oestrogen 2 pumps as well as Utrogestan 100 for a trial of 3 months. I had a small breast cancer 10 years ago so being cautious. is it better to start with just one pump for a week or so ? or do I go straight in with 2 pumps? Your experiences with this are invaluable . thank

Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally?
I just wanted to ask Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally? I'm supposed to have injection and start HRT soon. Seems stupid but i would like to know other opinions. I have stage 4 endo and my uterus and ovaries are stuck to my bowel and this treatment

Do steroids mask infection
I had a total knee replacement on 25th Nov. Took 10 mgs of Pred (double dose re Sick Day rules). On 24th Dec got infection in scar - stitch abcess for which I got antibiotics from MIU. Saw Ortho surgeon a few days later who told me to stop taking antibiotics because they would mask bacterial infection

Thin lining medicated FET
I had my base scan on Thursday on CD11 and my lining is only 7.2mm. I’m a little worried as this is the first medicated FET with 6mg estrogen daily (Elleste Solo 2mg, an HRT drug). Previously I had 2 natural cycle FET and my lining was much thicker 9mm. Since Thursday they have up my dose to 8mg estrogen

Pain management - any good resources?
I have
hip
pain and on the near-term schedule is a
hip
replacement
. Overall, as I get older, there will be more pains and aches, MS/hip-related or not. I am interested in alternative ways to manage pains. The pills are great, but I'm curious about other techniques. Any good recommendations?

Hip pain
Hi everyone, I’ve been waiting for
hip
replacement
now for just under 3 years and the pain is getting really bad now. I’m having to get round on crutches. I’ve also got rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis . I’ve tried so many different pain relief medication but none really work.

Loosing the will to live
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease in 1996. Luckily my GP screened for the antibodies as my T4 was borderline; purely because his daughter had been diagnosed with it. At the time I was passing out all the time, I had developed psoriasis, I had brain fog, depression and a host of other symptoms

Pessary in pessary out this morning and not a great experience
Hi, I don't want to give too much detail and put people off who might find it a useful option but I had to have the pessary removed within two hours. I have a stage two uterine prolapse but my GP said she didn't think I could reverse it with exercises as there is 'significant descent'. I've been

Interaction of Parkinson’s meds with heart meds
I take Ritary, Azilect and carb/lev and had heart valve replacement surgery at the end of August. Lots of side effects including hallucinations. Haven’t found much history on this but hear it common with PWP’s.. Mogul 1

HRT - decreases B12 levels?
Hi all I posted about abdominal pain/problems in December- got a whole lot of helpful replies. GP sent me for blood tests and scan - all clear thankfully. Seems to have settled now - not sure what caused it or why ok now. Thanks for the advice given. Anyway, my new query - I just haven’t been well

Anyone taking DHEA alongside their prescribed body identical HRT please?
I'm on Evorel Conti and learnt today from a friend that DHEA may benefit me.
