Zoladex Injection
Hi 😊 Please could anyone share their experiences with the zoladex injection? My gynae has suggested going on it for 6 months with the HRT pill, to help with endo symptoms. I know there can be a lot of bad side affects to taking this and I’ve read about a few bad experiences already, but I’d anyone

sudden drop in thyroid results!!
I recently had some health concerns which are still being investigated, in the meantime a new symptom of swollen face has occurred and I seem to of gained all the weight I just lost. I got some thyroid results today and was shocked to see how they have decreased when I usually have a steady result.

Need recommendations for herbal supplements.

FET on day 7 of progesterone
I’m doing a HRT FET this month with transfer booked for Friday. Just wondering what others experience is regarding timescales. My clinic told me to start progesterone on Saturday which means my transfer will be on day 7 of progesterone. Previously I’ve had transfers on day 6 so thought this was odd.

Zoladex side effects?
Hi, I've been taking Zoladex since October and have been having quite a few side effects recently. Aside from the more medical ones I've been struggling emotionally by not feeling like myself. Has anyone got any tips for that side of things? Also wanted to ask if people have any tips for the beauty side

Is my oestrogen high or low?
Hi everyone, I had a full hysterectomy two years ago and I've been having a bit of trouble getting my HRT right since. My latest results are attached but I'm confused as to whether my Beta Oestadiol level means my HRT (100mg patches) are working or not? I've been on them for about two months but they've

How much reduction in dose to lower TSH to please the specialist???
In July I saw an endocrinologist who found my TSH of 0.025 alarming. He wanted to lower the dose because "Low TSH can cause heart complications." (Eye roll) As many of you pointed out, it's not the TSH that's the problem. Is there sufficient, but not excessive, thyroid hormone to support cellular energy
