Hrt yes or no
Hello....before my iron infusion a random gp suggested I take hrt ????I haven't presented with menopausal symptoms and still have regular cycles . I'm aware SOME women have rls during this transition but I'm also aware HRT is a stimulant and can cause a spike . As we already struggle surely hrt will

Requip and Collagen
I have been taking Requip for several years and started taking Collagen last year as I had come off HRTand my hair and nails were in a terrible condition. I seem to remember seeing that taking both was not advised, is that correct? I have gone back on HRT but it has not made any difference.

lactose intolerance and vaginal oestrogen Vagirux?
Hi I’m awaiting a genetics decision on whether I can try HRT (again). Long story. In the meantime the most uncomfortable symptom is vaginal dryness. So my GP menopause specialist has prescribed Vagirux. I’m lactose intolerant, tried 1 tablet last night and was fine first thing this morning. I have

Hormone Replacement for Surgical Menopause
Hi dear ladies, have any of you used HRT to cope with the horrors of surgical menopause resulting from OC treatment, if that diagnosis happened to you prior to natural menopause? I find that there’s no discussion or warning about the effects of surgical menopause prior to treatment and that no one seems

HRT question
Sorry, I know it's technically off-topic but I also know there is a lot of knowledge on this board! I've been prescribed HRT; estrogen patches & progesterone tablets. When should I start wearing the patches? I'm on day 13 but cycles are somewhat irregular...

Slow, slow, quick quick slow -to taper or not?
I've forgotten the name of the tapering method. It's come to me in an hour or so I am sure. Canada was amazing and exhausting, we've been back since the 31st May and are still recovering. Mark was diagnosed with OA in his knees in March. Despite steroid injections before we left, his knees did not

Hi all. I posted recently about my concerns regarding zolodex etc. I think my only next steps is a complete hysterectomy due to my issues. HOWEVER. That being said, everyone seems to manage better withHRT and I'm looking to speak with people who have never been able to tolerate any form of hormone treatment

Does HRT estrogen patch and progesterone pill cause weight gain?
So now my big question is does HRT cause weight gain? See now my doctor changed her mind and she is going to let me do the estrogen patch and take the progesterone pill. But I am terrified because I've never been on hormone replacement therapy and I am a person who has had anorexia for over 25 years

Study to help patients manage their underactive thyroid
Just saw this and thought both that it is interesting it is being done. And, secondly, wondered if any would be willing to take part. I've scan read the information about the study and it appears that there is no geographical limit (please reply to let me know if I am wrong!) - just that you need to

Plan your health ahead when under DMT
Just sharing the need to plan healthcare needs (surgery, dental work, etc...) ahead once you get on a DMT. Don't delay any procedure... I'm on Ocrevus. I had to delay the treatment to 10 months (instead of the typical 6 months) to get my hip replacement surgery. The oral surgeon is asking the same

Persistent AF, Diltiazem, side effects or Menopause??

Is feeling hot in face 24/7 a menopause symptom/ low estrogen symptom? Will it go away with HRT(estrogen patch)?
Does anyone feel hot in your face all the time? Not only am I having hot flashes but I am feeling hot in my face ALL f the time with no end. I went to my gynecologist and she said that it is because I have no estrogen due to lack of periods for 20 years of anorexia. She is suggesting the HRT estrogen

Will HRT( estrogen patch) take away hot flashes and feeling hot all the time especially in my face?
I'm about to start the estrogen patch in a couple days after I see my gyno. I have no estrogen due to the fact that I haven't had a period in over 20 years due to chronic anorexia. So I'm having severe hot flashes and I feel hot all the time especially in my face. She feels the HRT and the will give
