A long post - How medication was ruining my life, not making me better! Reassurance for anyone concerned about stopping medication.
Hi ladies. A very Happy New Year to you all! I am hoping that 2023 treats you all with improved health and a wealth of happiness. I have seen a lot of posts recently appearing on my feed regarding treatments and hormones, and so I just wanted to share my recent experience of stopping all treatments.

Women, ADHD Surgical menopause and memory loss
Hello, New to the forum and looking to learn more about the subject listed above. It seems that among the medical professionals I've seen ADD is overlooked, as is the impact of the loss of estrogen. I am scared that this is my new normal. I'm wondering. 1. Have any of you experienced worsening ADD

Confusion
Due to discomfort, burning and a feeling that something was wrong, I was examined at my doctor's surgery and diagnosed with a vaginal prolapse requiring surgery. The waiting list is long. I went to a private clinic, hoping to get the surgery and get back to work. However, she examined me and said that

nausea with estrogen tablets
Hi, I’m on a FET cycle and started taking estrogen tablets three days ago and I’ve been feeling sick since so I presume it’s these tablets that are causing it. I want to eat healthy whilst building the lining up but I’ve hardly eaten anything and if I have it’s been rubbish foods, now I’m beating myself

Menopause and HRT
it’s just after 3am on Christmas night and I’m lying in bed wide awake knowing that something needs to change. My gynae has ruled HRT out for me as the endo used to be so aggressive, particularly in terms of ovarian cysts and she fears that feeding it estrogen will reawaken the beast. When I naively

Issues with meds before FET
Hey ladies, I’m curious to know if anyone has had any issues with the oestrogen tablets before a FET?
