Hello :) I’m due to get blood testing done next week in order to review how I’m doing on my current dose of levothyroxine and to see if an increase is necessary. I take my levo first thing in the morning so will be sure to do my blood test prior to taking it on that day, but I also take HRT and was

Had my 1st injection in February for endometriosis and PMD but severe form called PMDD. I was normal for 2 weeks and 2 weeks before my period, I turned into a horrible human, such as anger, debilitating anxiety, extreme low mood, thought of suicide. It had seriously put serious strains on my relationship

I had a hysterectomy in February for Adenomyosis and Fibroids. They said I didn't have Endo following a laparoscopy, mri and ultrasound. I have always had very painful periods and ovulation pains.

Hi.I'm having full thyroid, vitamins and hormones at 8.30 a.m. Before a blood test I usually skip breakfast, take my HRT and vitamin D, but not take my morning thyroid meds.. Should I take my Armour at 7.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m. the previous day? Should I only take the early morning dose and skip the afternoon

Hello all.... over the last year or so I have had worsening health.

I'm due to up my medication (private bloods show increase needed & symptoms back) NHS bloods due this week but I'm sweating like I was with menopause pre oestrogel? Which I'm still using? Is this side effect of teva? Be grateful for advice x

All I ever did was to apply Oestrogel to my inner thighs, which I stopped doing years ago since my PSAs have been undetectable. I don't know if Dr. Richard Wassersug is still on this forum? He was my mentor, and introduced me to the E2 gel.

Hi I'm really struggling, I've been on HRT for about a year and a half. Estrogel and utrogestan. In January I started to experience extreme nausea as soon as I stopped the 2 weeks of 200mg Utrogestan. It became so debilating that my GP referred me to the women's health clinic. The doctor there said as

Hi everyone. Been on my autoimmune thyroid journey for a few years now, was on 125mcg teva for a while, this dose almost suppressed the tsh, lowest was 0.003, it did however rise to 0.03. Gp reduced dose to 100mcg and TSH has now risen to 2.1. However (my bio gives loads of symptoms) I'm feeling steadily

I am a 57 year old woman, and had an Nstemi 10 weeks ago, and one stent fitted. I am on 2.5 bisoprolol, tricagrelor, 10 of ramipril, 80 statins and also aspirin.

I have been having appointments with my GP to try and get an HRT prescription. She wanted a blood test doing first - I have been taking NDT for about 8 years (doing really well on it) and basically my GP didn't understand it, stopped calling me in for blood tests and I haven't been for years. The blood

Hello lovely people, i hope everyone is managing to catch up on the long overdue sun ;) Sadly, my gynaecologist has found an ovarian tumour which needs to be removed and biopsied. Recovery from this will take between 6-8 weeks. I am in really good health otherwise but do take 150mg Levo and 45mg Liothyronine

Had my bloods tested to see how my testosterone levels are after starting testosterone gel (also on Estrogel and Utrogestan) and apparently my levels are 4.5, 3 times what they should be.
