Metformin just private?
I have PCOS and for my new round of IVF I was asked to take Metformin to reduce the risk of overstimulation. My fertility clinic sent a letter to my GP to put me on Metformin and get the bloodwork for it done beforehand. Now my GP said they will just do the (necessary) blood work if I pay for it privately

Dosing for Metformin for prostate cancer
I am sort of new to this site and have a question about dosing for Metformin for mestastatic prostate cancer. I am on Lupron now and am taking 50 mg of Metformin two times per day. I was given a Rx for it by my naturopath as my oncologist would not prescribe it. I am wondering if I should be taking

First a recap: Diagnosed April 2018 PSA 23 Gleason 9 , cancer escaped the capsule so no surgery for me. PET/CT PSMA found no distant/bone mets but several

Metformin for weight
Has anyone been given the drug Metformin to help the Cushing syndrome when on steroids? I know that at the moment it is trivial when life is as it is but I am bi polar and the weight gain is having a massive psychological effect on me. I exercise, walking and cycling as much as I can and I have consulted

Latest PSA whilst on Abiraterone
So, only a drop to 4.1 this month with T under 3. Previous months : 4.2, 6. 6, 12.9 Been on Abiraterone since January 2020. Also on Lupron, Metformin, and Lipitor. I'm a bit concerned that I'm already at a plateau with Abiraterone. I believe that I read on HU that chemos now may get the action of Abiraterone

Could a suppressed TSH be causing T3 to fall?
Hi, I've been stable for a while on 100mcg T4 +T3 12.5mcg then 10mcg (when it started to be prescribed we couldn't get 12.5mcg in uk) I've been starting to go off for about 9months. I felt well with my T3 around 6.2(3.1-6.8) and it's gradually been declining to now at 5.58. My t3 dose was lowered slightly

Trying to Make Sense of Husbands Testosterone History and Wanting to Clarify Why a Doctor Feels He May Be Becoming CR.
I have been looking back at my husbands T numbers over his three year history of treatment and looking for thoughts after a doctor today made a comment Charlie is becoming CR and should try Provenge. Little history. T has always been low in Charlie. Usually below 300 for 15 years prior to being diagnosed
