New here
I'm 24 years old and female. I feel so muddled about what to do at the moment. I have so many symptoms and undergone so many tests. My TSH has jumped from 5.6 (0.2 - 4.2) to 2.2 (0.2 - 4.2) within 2 months, then 0.02 (0.2 - 4.2) to 5.44 (0.2 - 4.2) within 4 weeks! Vitamins and minerals I have been told

I'm on
Levest
21 day birth control pills and have been on them for 1 year and 6 months. I then had about 2 weeks off of them and have completed a month of the new packet. I have had 2 weeks maybe a little more than that of bleeding but now I've finished the monthly packet without missing any.

Help! Best Private Functional Adrenal Dr UK :-)
I would really appreciate any PM's with recommendations of good private functional Dr's anywhere in the UK. It seems like such a minefield! I'm so desperate as I'm currently housebound due to low cortisol, Iron, Vitamin D and Zinc. I would love some support to get me out of this pickle! I don't really

Lots more tests following endo appointment
I posted a few days ago for a bit of advice due to persistent low cortisol and being very symptomatic despite really good thyroid results and vitamin levels. I saw the endocrinologist at the Liverpool royal and I have to say she was fantastic! I was in there for about 45 minuets so apologies if you were

Serum Cortisol Test Result Help
Hi to everyone I'd be grateful if someone can interpret this test result I've just had done? Possibly another piece of the jigsaw! Serum CORTISOL 213 nmol/L [185.0 - 624.0] tested at 9.30am I can't afford the private Saliva one just yet. Thanks SallyB

Saliva Test Results - Potentially Low Cortisol?
All, I wonder what you would say about these saliva cortisol results? My AM cortisol looks ok, but then it goes downhill after that and each result is borderline low. Would you treat this with hydrocortisone? I plan to ask my holistic doctor on Tuesday but was curious as to your responses. Thank

I am currently been taking the
levest
pill and I had take two strips in a row without a break (bleed) due to a busy period at work. I have two pills left until my 7 day break but I've started to get severe cramps which feel like period pains and I've had some bleeding?

Serum cortisol result is mine normal?
For a year I've been suffering a number of symptoms & I am sure it's something to do with my hormones although all my bloods are coming back normal. My blood was tested for cortisol at around 10am and came back at 181nmol. Is this within normal range? Online ranges are not clear and confusing. The NHS

Cortisol results, how does this fit with potential secondary hypothyroidism?
Hi, I've posted a couple of times before but have just got the results of my 24 hr saliva test. I've been struggling for a few years with a variety of symptoms, posted on here and the general consensus is secondary hypothyroidism as TSH = .35, t4 = 12.4 as well as low ferritin, folate, vit B12, vitD

Levest pill
Is it safe to take two strips of the pill
levest
one after another? simply because my period falls on a few days where work is going to be tense, and I'd rather not be in discomfort at this time.
