Prolia shots
After 4+ years of Actonel is Prolia a good choice for continued treatment of osteoporosis? I will be asking my rheumatologist the same question next time I see her. I am due for another bone scan so she will most likely want to see that first but based on the first 2 tests I am going downhill bone-wise

Coming off IVF meds
Good morning ladies, Approaching my 12th week this Friday. Have been told to come off all meds (except the steroids) I am really nervous. Doctors are saying the placenta takes over between 10-12 weeks but how do they know that? I had a scan last Thursday (before intralipids) and all was ok.

Hot flushes returned since PMR diagnosis
I thought my hot flushes had gone after 8 years of surviving the menopause but since being diagnosed with PMR in March this year they have returned. I wonder if it’s the condition or the steroids that cause it ? I was lucky and apart from the hot flushes and a few night sweats I didn’t have any after

OHSS, how long after egg collection?
Hi, First round of IVF and had eggs collected yesterday. I have all the risk factors for OHSS, but we are mitigating as much as possible (gnrh agonist trigger, freezing eggs, Cabergoline, clexane and gnrh antagonist for the next few days). For those who have had OHSS, how long after the collection did

night sweats - without sweating, any solutions?
hi everyone, I had to come off HRT in December. It hasn’t been as bad as I thought. Except…I get the most awful hot episodes through the night. They wake me up as I feel I’m being cooked, no sweating though. I’m in the cycle of throwing covers off then waking again freezing, and like many of us my normal

Managing OHSS risk
I'm on my first IVF cycle and due for egg collection on Monday. We always knew I was high risk for OHSS as I have PCOS, and had an AMH of 205 initially, (which has reduced to 45 on Metformin), so were always planning to freeze the eggs from this cycle. My estrogen at day 5 of stims was around 3500 and

Protocol for FET - Anyone had similar??
Hi everyone! Had egg collection & PGT and we have 1 suitable embryo. Call today with 2 proposed protocols, medicated & natural. We are leaning more towards medicated which entails Prostap, Progynova, Buserelin & Cycolgest. Curious if anyone else has experienced this and what to expect?? TIA ❣️

High FSH & LH but normal oestrogen - aged 37 still having periods
Has any one else had a high FSH and LH blood result? Oestrogen normal. I’m 37 years old, I have very severe stage 4 Endo and adeno with a lot of bowel involvement, multiple surgeries and excisions but disease continues to return within months. Disease causes infertility so I’ve never had children.

HRT anyone?
Hi all, I was diagnosed with Lupus last June. Luckily my symptoms are mild - and my rhumatologist agreed that i didn't need to start hydroxyholorquine if I didn't want to. I'm definitely peri-menopausal and a lot of "symptoms" of lupus overlap with perimenopause and my rhumatologist agreed it's

Help! on Pro-stap, tibolone HRT brought back endo pain!? Made me so unwell - anyone relate??
pro-stap monthly injections started November without HRT. Reduced lot of the endo pain (although made my stomach issues/sensitivity to food way worse). Decided to start tibolone HRT 10 weeks into the injections and it caused awful period/endo pain, spotting, flu type symptoms on and off. Only lasted

TBG result... new to me
I've not seen this tested before but I'm interpreting it to show I have the balance of oestrogen and thyroid hormones about right... 😏🤷♀️
