Progesterone??
Hi! I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice. I’m 22 and I was diagnosed with endo when I was 18, I’ve had 3 laparoscopies burning the endo and removing ovarian cysts. I’ve just been told to go on the pill to manage the symptoms. The last few months I’ve been in agony missing time off work

Iodine loading test?
I have recently had a urine iodine test which showed I was very deficient. Apparently this test in isolation isn't particularly useful so I would like to follow it up with a 24hr loading iodine test. Would my gp be likely to do this if I requested it or don't they do it on the NHS

Reduced Carb Diet and a Little Weight Loss is Reducing My Blood Lipids and Liver Inflammation Markers
I just thought I'd share my findings, maybe it'll help encourage those struggling with carbohydrate reduction and a change in diet. For the past 6 weeks i have been restricting carbohydrates (to around 100ish grams per day), with the complete elimination of added sucrose or foods containing sucrose as

Test message from GP
Just had this text message from my Gp this morning. I had an appointment with him on Monday to discuss my recent bloods, with the hope of another increase in Levo to just tweak my levels.

Painful joints and sciatica
I was prescribed codeine and paracetamol 30/500mg in 2019. I am now fully addicted. I am also taking Gabapentin 3 times a day 9 a day and anti depressants. My doctor is uncaring, no patient/doctor relationship atall. He's very detached and I hate seeing him! Looking to move surgeries soon

The state of urinary iodine is not related to either TSH or Free T4
This paper shows that TSH and FT4 in blood does not reflect urinary iodine levels. This indicates the thyroid is flexible to iodine supply and is robust to limited iodine in diet.
Do Thyroxine and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone Levels Reflect Urinary Iodine Concentrations

Hi just looking for a bit of advice for analgesia. I've got NAFLD cirossis stage 4. I am suffering at the moment with a flare up of diverticulitis and need to take analgesia. I know NSAID's are a no no , but codeine is that ok ? I've looked around for info but not really found an answer.

Feeling dreadful
I was diagnosed with Graves early 2017. I got back on an even keel and was in remission for 18 months but out of the blue had a thyroid storm in July 2020. I've been on Carbimazole, Propranolol and Apixaban since then. I haven't actually seen an Endo at all. I was diagnosed when in hospital in July

More glycol trade names
Strap in. This is a doozy. My husband used some iodine solution.... I broke out like crazy after coming in contact with a single drop of it. I checked the label and it had something suspish: "Makon 8." What is that, I ask? Here is what I found. Polyethylene glycol ether. Here is a giant list of trade
