Help with hrt
I’ve been taking evorel 25 and ultrogestan 100 since February for menopause symptoms but the side effects have been getting worse. The menopause team wrote to gp and suggested everol conti or something else. The gp prescribed everol conti as it’s what they prefer. I finally got it today and I’m not happy

Levothyroxine and HRT
My first post on here but have been following for the last 4 years and have learnt so much from all the different posts. My question is about taking HRT tablets as well as Levothyroxine . I take my levo before bed but my HRT tablets also say to take at night. Will this affect my levo? Should I consider

My journey continues
I had a laproscopy 2 years ago and now awaiting it again. They have put me on the injection to bring on menopause & HRT. I rang today to see the wait for surgery it is going to be 50 weeks. They are going to extend the injections until I have the surgery even though the injection is licenced for 6 months

Reducing levothyroxine and taking HRT
I would appreciate some thoughts on whether I should reduce my Levothyroxine from 125 daily to 125 x Mon-Fri and 100 x Sat/Sun to bring TSH up a little bit. GP has agreed to this and started me on HRT patch (Evorel Conti 50) to see if that helps with the aches and pains as she thinks thyroid is treated

Self-Catheterization - Any Thoughts?
I had a total
hip
replacement
in late October. I was catheterized. It was removed too soon. At 3:00 a.m. the following morning I was catheterized, my bladder drained and the catheter removed. Since then, I have been leaking urine. I wear Depends all the time. A CT scan showed nothing.

Is Atrial Fibrillation connected to the Thyroid?
I am wondering if through a change in thyroid hormone type and dosage one can modify or cure Atrial Fibrillation? Several here have mentioned that irregular heartbeat or palpitations have decreased with the use of T3, however, I don't recall reading anything about adjustments in hormone replacement

Feeling down, frustrated and zoladex
Hi Everyone, I have stage 4 endo and it is also present on my sigmoid colon and probably by now who knows where else. I was put on the waiting list for surgery to have everything removed back in 2019. My first dealings with zoladex was for 15 months whilst waiting for a surgery date amongst the chaos

Preparing thoughts for Endo appt on Monday
Hi, I have an Endo appointment on Monday 4 July I have been on 75/100mcg since 23 May. I plan to ask her to go to 100mcg but maybe to ease into it by going 75/100/100/75 for a couple of weeks before going up to 100mcg and then sticking. This is my recent history On 75/100 I had heart palpitations

T3 only - how high do you keep your FT3?
I will be going for a medical at some point soon as I need a
hip
replacement
, so I’ll more than likely need to make sure I’m in range by then, but if I can test the water before then, I’d like to see if I can feel that well again. Any advice appreciated!

Update primary hyper parathyroidism
Apparently it’s only mild but many symptoms overlap with endo and menopause and the hrt I’m now on. Happy days. I now need a genetic test to check for familial something or other depending on the outcome parathyroid surgery is a possibility. Interesting the gp said that although you can choose your consultant

Oral Morphine
I was prescribed oral morphine after my second
hip
replacement
did not go well. I found that oral morphine did little to relieve my pain and caused chronic constipation. Sorry, not to be more encouraging.
