Diagnosis
Hi, I'm perimenopausal and my hormone dips have thrown up digestion, hyperosmia, brain fog issues and because of lack of appetite I have become malnourished and very low on ferritin despite trying the super heme from 3 Arrows. I've had some private bloods done. Notable results are:- T3 2.97 T4

Addback HRT or Antidepressants?
Hi, I'm currently on zoladex week 3 of my first injection. I'm on addback HRT of estrogen gel 2 pumps per day and body identical utrogestan progesterone- one per day. Mentally I'm pretty good. I've not had any side effects yet and believe thus is due to the HRT and perhaps the fact that it hasn't totally

Does HRT help with fibromyalgia?
Dear fellow sufferers, Until I was diagnosed with fibro in 2021, I believed I was suffering with PMT, Peri-menopause symtoms. However, I am now menopausal and finding that my fibromyalgia, when in flare mode or hormone lacking mode, I am suffering double bubble symptoms!!! Do others suffer in this

Help boosting thyroid without medication?
Hello all I have posted before as my thyroid function is poor but always comes back in range (my TSH never rises even with low levels) so no chance of medication on the NHS (other than statins for high cholesterol which I refuse). I did some recent tests TSH 1.95 (0.27-4.2) T4 14.6 (12-22) T3

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020

Evorel Conti Patches
I'm currently on HRT oral tablets and have been for a number of years but wanted to try a more bio identical type. I've now been prescribed Evorel Conti patches and just wondered if anyone had used them and what they thought.

changing from Armour to levo
Hi all I take armour thyroid and have done for over 10 yrs now. I was originally prescribed this by a private doctor but further down the rd I found a way to buy Armour myself so I self medicate. I test my levels regularly (probably every 4-6 months) and I’ve felt in a good place for years. That’s

Does this sound like Hashimoto's please?
Hello, My thyroid has been under suspicion for many years but I cannot seem to get any answers. Postnatally, (four months after giving birth), some fifteen years ago, my TSH was tested and was 12.6. Nothing was done about this. ( I have only just seen this on my NHS app). Fast forward to eight years

Pain relief advice
Hi, I had a laprocospy in November 2022. Since then I have had a miscarriage and been really struggling with ongoing severe pain and swelling. Awaiting a further laprocospy but this could be 12-18 months before I get a date. I have been contemplating going privately or trying GnRh injections until I
