Adrenalin?

Very rarely feel happy or excited and rarely content. Is this lack of Adrenalin? How long should I stay on 4mg before reducing to

HRT for treatment of osteoporosis
Hi. Can anyone offer their experience of using HRT to help build bone density instead of the usual bisphonates ? I have had a REMS scan recently which shows similar (spine) and higher (hip) T scores than my DEXA although the strength of my bones is very good according to the REMS. I have a very low

Issues with HRT four weeks on
I’ve been taking 100mg of Utrogestan, 2 pumps of oestrogel and vagirux for a month now. Initially I felt calmer but now I’m feeling worse than before. I’m getting more genito-urinary symptoms especially the day after using Vagirux. It’s the same as Vagifem. Especially after dropping down to twice

Which should I increase Levo or NDT.
Hello I have been on NDT and levo for many years now. I self medicate on NDT. Originally was on levo only, and it never worked well for me. I found that a mix of levo and NDT worked, this was after months and months of slow adjustments, and help from this forum. When I used NDT alone it sent my

Continuous Utrogestan after hysterectomy?

Feedback on private Blood tests please, before my Endo appt..
I posted earlier this month asking for advice before I see my Endo at the end of November. I've not been feeling too great and my Endo put me on Hrt as my levels were all in range and he thinks my symptoms are perimenopausal rather than thyroid. (graves/Rai Oct 21) I feel it's a mixture of both. Hrt
