Noobie Hypo struggling with dose/GP and ‘feeling well’
Hi, I’m new. Any advice and guidance would be much appreciated. I started feeling dreadful in 2018, (although on reflection having excessive sweats all my life, sleeping through my A Levels in the 90s all add up) was put on HRT for 3 years. It stopped working, felt worse and different GP at the practice

Progress made starting HRT
Hi Today a nurse has put me on HRT, Estradiol 0.06% gel and Utrogestan 100mg capsules. To be honest, I’m shocked, as the previous nurse I had a telephone conversation with was obsessed with getting my bloods done, and as the keys words were not mentioned by me as ‘no periods’, and ‘hot sweats’, I could

Pain and stiffness - menopause or something else?
Hi. I was put on pred, mycophenolate and alendronic acid for 2 years in 2008 after several strokes and many tests which concluded in a diagnosis of primary (cerebral) vasculitis. I recovered exceptionally well and still take blood thinners now. In 2020 I developed numerous menopause symptoms including

Blood tests for Thyroid and Food Intolerances?
1/ My question: having blood tests done privately, and food intolerance tests privately, will the knowledge of the results be beneficial to know, and are the results reliable? 2/ My question: blood taken from the finger tips by myself for the analysis, are they as reliable as analysis using blood from

Is anyone on T3 only and experiencing anxiety and symptoms of worrying lots? Wondering if this is a menopause or thyroid issue..
I was currently taking metavive for my under active thyroid, but due to self dosing it wasn't working as I was on too high a dose. When working out (seems a life time ago!) my heart rate was 200bpm. I therefore came off metavive and now seeing an endocrinologist. I am now on T3 only as thyroxine didn't

TSH is either a faulty indicator of treatment or if not, patients are often incorrectly treated by T4 (a logical challenge)
This paper is useful in indicating how long it takes to recover TSH levels after start of treatment for hypothyroidism, and that a considerable proportion of patients were, according to TSH normalisation or not, were incorrectly treated. Of course, we know TSH normalisation on T4 only isn't a good

I'm new here - Utrogestan/Mirena query
I have been using the Mirena coil for PMS and for the progesterone part of HRT since June last year, and want to have it removed due to hair loss, but am worried about taking Utrogestan as taking it two weeks a month could re-start the cycle of depression/mood swings that I was trying to resolve by having

Knee Surgery
Thank you to everyone who replied to my inquiry about Knee surgery & pred. Nurse at Orthopedic office told me I would have to stop Pred. before surgery. I told her I could not suddenly stop pred, due to adrenal insufficiency that it would cause. It is frightening when medical personnel do not know
