Hiya, I'm 27 years old, just been diagnosed with early stage uterine cancer and as it's estrogen positive, I will be unable to commence hormone replacement therapy after my hysterectomy (inc. uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes and removal of both ovaries). Any advice and help on how to mentally prepare

What do you think of these supraphysiologic testosterone theories?
One road is: SPT (supraphysiologic testosterone) AI (aromatase inhibitor - blunts testosterone to estrogen conversion) 5-ARI (5-alpha reductase inhibitor.

HRT ASTHMA AND COPD - Can anyone advise?
Hi everyone, I begun taking a very low dose of estrogen which I took daily for 2 weeks and then continued on a dose of two times a week - well I haven't quite got that far! It has made me extremely breathless and wheezy. I have no obvious signs of a chest infection, but am not going to take it again

HRT and general health hell
Hello, I am new here and hope this is the right forum to post in. I am 49, and in pretty bad health. I am on Levothyroxine (100mg a day) and have blood tests which come back "slightly borderline" but not enough to change the dose. Last year, I got what started as a cold which then turned into an infection

Estrogen receptor β regulates AKT activity through up-regulation of INPP4B and inhibits migration of prostate cancer cell line PC-3
What to make of this Patrick? estrogen patches ?? Dysregulation of PI3K/AKT/PTEN signaling is a common characteristic of prostate cancer (PCa). Loss of the tumor suppressor PTEN occurs frequently in PCa and leads to overactive AKT signaling. Complete loss of PTEN is associated with increased metastasis

Been to hormone specialist...not sure what to think?!
I am new here, but not new to thyroid problems. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2001 after years of symptoms no doctor could explain: high blood pressure difficult to control even with medication, hair loss, high cholesterol, weight gain and fluid retention. Doctors suggested I was eating too much

How do hormones affect PD?
I understand it affects more women than men. How we differ from women; More testosterone, less estrogen. I think maybe 10 years ago there was a book titled, The Testosterone Syndrome. The upshot was cruciferous veggies helped keep these hormones in balance. Specifically DIM was the active

Can i drink dandelion tea while on oestrogen for fet
I am on a very high dose of oestrogen and i have lots of water retention. I was wondering if dandelion is ok to drink as its diuretic and might aid get rid of excess water. However i read that it helps detoxify the liver and get rid of excess oestrogen. Also that it contains oestrogen like chemicals.
