Endometrioma, dizziness and HRT
I have been applying Oestrogel and taking Utrogestan once a day and I feel better in that my joint pain and lower back pain go away, I have tons more energy, I feel happier but after I am on it for a few days, I start getting discomfort from the only ovary I have left which has an endometrioma in it

natural hormonal balancing solutions
hi I’m waiting for an op for Adenomyosis and endo this year. I also have fibroids. I’m due for a full hysterectomy - including removal of ovaries and tubes. I gave a coil fitted but it’s not very effective due to the size of my uterus due to my condition. I am getting menopause symptoms but I’m not

Worsening RLS
Will get my Ferrutin checked . Aged 62 female. I have started knitting and sit still for several hours in the evening and wonder if that isn’t helping-had a night off knitting and a night off RLS on Saturday! Clutching at straws? Also associate it with being hot in bed. Not taking any meds at all

Seeking menopause advice
My period ended at 46 but now that I’m 50 enter mood swings, brain fog & insomnia. Is it normal to have menopause symptoms this many years after my last period. What treatments have worked well? I’m all about natural remedies first & foremost but at this point I’ll consider HRT if others can convince

A (failed?) attempt to stop thyroid medicines.
Hi, everyone. Sorry for the long post... I've been on thyroid hormone replacement since almost 4 years. I started euthyrox on the advice of my gp when my TSH was 2.89 (0.27-4.20). My antibodies were also slightly elevated (TPO: 112 [0-34]) and they remain on this range until today. Back then I was

Results please advice needed
Overall comment 13/02/2023 Your thryoid function results show an unusual pattern. There may be several reasons for this, such as taking thyroid medication or treatment or the sample was taken when you were unwell. If the result is unexpected, we recommend you discuss these results with your GP. TRIODOTHYRONINE

Horrific night sweats.
I know some of you knowledgeable people will be able to give me some advice about how to help with the horrific night sweats I am having. This is fairly longstanding (17years), since I was about 50, now 67 but recently I have suffered long bouts of them. Currently, have had them for 47 nights in a row

AF after Covid jab
I have had 4 Covid jabs and each time have had a reaction that confined me to bed for at least 48 hours. In April 2022 after my pre op I underwent a total knee replacement - all went fine. I returned to have the pre op for my other knee to find that my heart beat was very irregular - AF had developed

Blood tests and supplement advice please if you have a minute.
Hello everyone, I posted this a little while back but no comments so trying again, I know everyone is busy but I find help here invaluable. I am hoping I could get some advice on recent results. In late October I changed from 100-125mcg dose due to aches and sluggishness. Prior to this I had received

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
