Estetrol for bone density? What estrogen test so I need, anything specific?
Found this interesting article on estetrol and wondering if anyone out there has taken this form of estrogen? I see a lot of posts relating to estradiol patches but the E4 estrogen form appears to be much better at least on first look. The clinical trials were done in the Netherlands so it may be something

Advice please
Hello, I have Hashimoto’s and take both Levothyroxine and Liothyronine. I check my levels regularly and am well controlled on medication. I am in my mid 50’s and since menopause I have struggled with high blood pressure likely triggered by a drop in estrogen. I am fit and fairly slim. I used to be

Would appreciate hearing from people going through similar?
Hi I had a total hysterectomy a year ago - including ovaries, the whole lot. For a while I felt fine, then gradually struggled to breath, raspy throat, lack of energy, breathless, it got worse and was admitted to hospital. When I came home I got estrogen patches, am now on 25 mg and felt much better

Advised for donor eggs after one cancelled stimulation cycle
Hello everyone, So,we have had a cycle which was a cancelled cycle after stimulation and before collection. Long story short the doctors saw only one egg was fully grown just before collection day and estrogen was low. And with low estrogen the doctor believed that most likely the follicles were empty

Oestrogen only HRT
Hello. Does anyone have any experience of taking oestrogen only HRT after a partial hysterectomy? I've been recommended this,by a BSGE consultant, but didn't think that oestrogen only was a good option and now I'm really confused. I have had 4 excision surgeries for stage 4 endo and still have, now

I’m about 4 stone overweight and want to lose it. It’s not actually that I CANT lose it, but as soon as I do (

Pondering the practice of testing TSH/FT4/FT3
As I have been expending all of this energy attempting to educate myself and my endocrinologist - as I would like to be well and stay well, it made me wonder... Is there another hormone that is typically replaced, and then tested to see what the levels are? In other words, would my GP order a test

Ovaries- stay or go?
Hi everyone. After over 30 years of pain and extreme bloating over the last two years, I’ve sadly no other option than to have a hysterectomy, I’ve been told. I’ve only ever had two laparoscopies in 2012. They’re reluctant to remove my ovaries, stating all the health related issues it can cause,
