Melatonin - seems like a miracle cure, but is it?
I've got shot adrenals glands, low cortisol all day, and when I'm in a crash, as I am at the moment, I sleep terribly. I've had some melatonin for ages, and tried about 1mg the other night. I slept like a baby and felt great the next day, no fatigue or aches and pains. I didn't take it last night and

I need help with my blood test results
Hi, I've been suffering from low testosterone since 20. I'm 33 now and I had a lot tested by the endocrinologist. My testosterone came back within normal limits but it was in the lower range. I don't know how to interpret my estrodial levels because there is no range. I'm trying to get a six pack and

Has anyone had experience of using 1% hydrocortisone cream for treating low cortisol?
I have just received my adrenal saliva test results from Dr Myhill. I have low cortisol and she has recommended I use hydrocortisone cream to treat. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has treated their adrenal issues by this method with any advice if pos. Also if not treated in this way

Stomach ulcers ? LOW or HIGH stomach acid? Would ACV help?
Hi My son, 30, has had a coeliac test endoscopy today duye to having "negative TTG antibodies". He has to wait 2 weeks for his results. During the investigation he was told he has 3 x 2mm stomach ulcers beginning near the lower valve in the stomach. They took 3 biopsies from the duodenum and stomach

How long does T3 take to enter your cells?
I have just swopped over to T3 on Dr P's advice. I don't think I can take more than quarter of a tablet (6.25) because of adrenal issues. But now trying to assess symptoms - sudden palpitations, thumping heart sensation and tremors - which last about 20 mins and start about 90 minutes after taking T3

Effect of LDN on Adrenal Function
Hi everyone, i've been taking LDN for about a month. What is noticeable is that i'm feeling more and more tried. I already have low cortisol could this be making it worse?. I fainted again while showering last Saturday, this had stopped since on B12 injections starting just before Christmas. Why is it
