Is Anyone Using Indivina HRT With Success (no thyroid med interactions and weight gain)?
I am considering trying Indivina HRT due to it being hair growth friendly as I have hair thinning, and also to prevent further bone loss ( I have early onset osteoporosis). If anyone who is hypo and uses Indivina, I would be grateful if they could advise on how successful they are finding it, particularly

On zoladex, worried HRT reactivated endometriosis ? Anyone had the same?
I have been on Zoladex for 4-5 months now, it’s helped my ovulation pain massively and the sharp pains I used to get with my period. I started on 1/2 patch of combined HRT 3 months after starting the zoladex but it wasn’t controlling the menopausal symptoms so I was upped to a full patch. Since starting

Sore thyroid/neck
Morning. Quick question if I may? Feeling good on levothyroxine 75mg, T3 5 mg and hrt. My only issue is my thyroid/neck is really sore. I've had it scanned and no nodules just shows typical Hashimotos or Thyroiditis. Endo wants to increase T3 to 10 mg but im not keen to have any more medication,

Swollen leg leaves me frustrated
So a short bit of background: I travel to Maine in U.S. every August to "climb", hike, swim (float really) and kayak. Last year was rough and I mostly kayaked as my ACL's and MCL's (medial cruciate ligaments) in both knees are torn. This year I only managed two tiny mountains 5 days apart and bam,

Advice please.
I was started on levothyroxine 25mcg in Dec 2021 after having symptoms of underactive thyroid. At this time TSH was 5.47 (0.38-5.35), FT4 11.5 (7.9-14.4) In Feb 2022 TSH was checked and 4.63. No change in medication. Since this time I have slowly had worsening symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, feeling

Here We Go Again?
As I write this my heart feels heavy accompanied by a dull ache and a small 'buzz' every so often. If it follows its normal progression it will start to feel squeezed during the next 24 hours & as though it has over done it at the gym and now feeling sore. This combination has seen me in A&E over 5

I’ve recently had a hospital appointment of a pre-op for left knee replacement. Amongst the many issues I have with complying with all the requirements for the best possible outcome, is one of weight. I have put on 6 stone in 6 months (thanks to pred), totally knocked off my feet with a DVT, cellulitis

RLS what works for me
After bilateral hip replacement in 2015, I developed RLS in both legs, seem to hit at once when it attacks. Mainly at night of course or during meetings or when I'm still too long. I take a plant product called kratom. It might not be legal in all states but is in mine (for now). I learned about it

pros and cons of hysterectomy vs decapeptyl injections for fibroids
Hi- wondering if anyone else had to make a decision between continuing decapeptyl injections (simulate menopause to control fibroids) or having open hysterectomy? Been on the injections a year now. There isn’t much research on long term use of injections which ‘switch off’ your hormones, and I can

6 months after valve replacement and all is looking good.
I had mitral valve replacement exactly 6 months ago at Barts in London. It looks like people who are doing good are not writing on this forum. We usually see the others and therefore naturally think, after surgery people are not doing good. Its completely opposite in my experience. I had the OHS and

knee replacement during ADT
I have been on ADT for 8 months. I have a small farm and usually do constant physical labor. I find that I now have major fatigue and can now only do small things that leave me exhausted. I fell and wrenched my knee. I got a steroid injection and have a brace, my knee is bone o bone. I need a knee replacement

Hi all, I'm new here and have had RLS one form or another since I was a child but lately it has kicked off particularly badly. To give some insight I have night terrors and I had a sleep study which suggested RLS might be triggering the terrors (my legs wake me when I should be asleep). My dr at
