Anyone thought about using estriol instead of estradiol?
Has anyone considered using estriol cream instead of estradiol? A summary as to why it looks interesting: Estriol agonizes ER-beta (ESR2) more than ER-alpha [1]. ER-beta agonism is associated with anti-proliferative effects in a variety of cancers [2]. Estradiol agonizes both about the same [1]. The

Bone Strengthening
What does everybody take/use for a bone strengthened? Do all of you take calcium? I was given one IV of Zometa but I didn’t receive anymore as it cause my blood calcium levels to drop extremely low. When I asked my oncologist what I should be taking to increase my bone strength he said he wasn’t up

Hypothyroidism and erectile dysfunction
Hello to all. I have been hypo for some time (hashimoto). Ever since I was diagnosed, I have had all the symptoms, such as hair loss, cold and especially erectile dysfunction. I was on levothyroxine therapy for years, increasing dosages, to no avail. I switched to T3 + T4 combination therapy with no

Brevinor or Norimin?
Ladies has anyone tried Brevinor or Norimin combined pill please? I have been on Loestrin 30 for many years with no issues but it's now been discontinued unfortunately. Looking for similar low estrogen pill as Microgynon made me feel awful when I tried that before so don't want it again. Thanks.

Opinions pleass
Has anyone had an endometrial ablation and it caused low estrogen? What did you experience? I had one a few months ago and I haven’t felt right since, I got an infection which I called my doctor 3 times about and ended up in the ER, I’ve been experiencing severe mood swings, hot flashes, bouts of crying

Confused!
Hi Ladies So i came back from my 3rd scan for my natural cycle transfer and my follicle has grown to 16mm (it was 12 or 13mm on Mon) and my lining is 8.3mm today, 8.8mm on Mon, today is day 12 of my cycle. They are saying things are happening slower than expected and they might cancel this cycle. My

Baseline scan 👌
On baseline everything is turned off and my lining is non existent. Bit concerned they hadn’t read previous notes on my lining with 6mg of oestrogen, on day 10 I’d only reached 5.5mm in 08/18. So the doctor doubled the dose to 12mg in an attempt to get me to the correct thickness. Another doctor was

Female Hormones advice PLEASE, PLEASE
One of you very kindly recommended someone, a female and I think a specialist, whom you had found very helpful in resolving female hormonal problems, probably around the menopause but I don't remember for sure. Please, can anyone recommend someone to help me? My body does not tolerate oestrogen yet

Change in Breast Cancer
Has anyone had a change in Receptors? I previously had Her2 Positive and now the sample from my breast surgery is Progesterone receptor Positive 100% and Estrogen receptor positive 2-5%. My Oncologist is completely at a loss as to what to do. She asked two colleges and got two different answers!

Possible Side Effect of Post Cancer Med
I've had bilateral breast cancer. Left side 2002 with chemo and radiation followed up by 5 years of Letrozol. Right side 2013 with only radiation followed up by 5 years of Exemestane (Aromasin). Both tumors were estrogen positive. Now they have put me on Tamoxifen for another 5 years. I'm just wondering

Donor eggs
Don’t know what to do started the donor egg process, was on bc and had the most painful period when I stopped it then started estrogen patches and now had a severe uti for nearly a week on second antibiotic. Panicking that the cycle will be abandoned although told not or that something is going on that

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis potential oestrogen dominance as the culprit ? Potential combatted by Progesterone oil ? Thoughts ?
Has anyone looked at a webpage under the name of forefronthealth.com and their discussion about using progesterone oil to combat Hashimoto’s thyroiditis ? If you have , have you bought the oil and how did you respond ? Makes for an interesting read about Hashimotos being brought about by oestrogen dominance

This is my first post so please forgive any mistakes! I’m a 57 yr old woman, post menopause.

Oophorectomy, anyone?
Hello everyone! I just had a scan and feel really grateful that so far the Ibrance and Letrozole have reduced the lesions on my rib and pelvis. I am 50 years old, and am premenapausal, so I get a Lupron shot every month. I have been thinking about getting my ovaries removed since 1.) I'm not using
