Does anyone take HRT without menopause?
Following on from my previous post I've gone back over previous bloods. These were done 10 months ago so need re-doing but I'm wondering if the low estrogen has something to do with my short menstrual cycles and nonexistent libido. Does anyone here take OTC HRT? Is it something I should leave well

Hair loss getting worse - what am I missing?
I have been struggling with hair loss for 3 years. It is now falling at an alarming rate and I fear being forced into wigs or hair replacement surgery. It's been a long journey, so I don't know that I'll remember everything, but I'll try to hit the important points: 1. I have no thyroid 2.

hypothyroid following partial thyroidectomy. Question about HRT and optimum T4 levels.
I found something that said don't take
oestrogen
too close to Levo dose but as I have a patch rather than a tablet, is that different? How does
oestrogen
affect thyroxine? Will i need more of one or the other? I have only been on levo for 2 months so just learning about how it affects me.

Intense itching at night
Hello there I have been taking 4 pumps of Oestrogel at 8am since November and I have intense itching at night. I wake up with night sweats around 2-3am and my torso und inner thighs are super itchy. It lasts for about 1 hour. I wonder if anyone has a similar problem? And if so, is there anything

Made it to 12w scan!
It feels like a huge hurdle to have got to, and I almost can't believe that I have! It was so lovely to see our little bean bouncing about and waving it's arms and legs around, honestly it didn't feel real. I've been scheduled for more scans than normal because of my age and being IVF, but still now

Estrogen , progesterone , Drugs that suppress immune system may protect against Parkinson’s
Drugs that suppress immune system may protect against Parkinson’s People taking corticosteroids such as prednisone were 20 percent less likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's, while those on inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMDH) inhibitors were about one-third less likely https://medicine.wustl.edu

The iodine question
Hello, I am pondering on iodine supplementation. The b-complex I used it buy have changed the formula to add iodine so I am trying another one. However my nutritionist friend has incouraged me to have some iodine as it is important for healthy breast tissue and ovaries. I am also reading The Period Repair

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

Sciatica with endometriosis - 2 years of pain
After being trialled on a
oestrogen
blocker to see if endo was likely a problem for my pelvic pain, I started to notice that my sciatica was improving. It wasn’t until then that I found the connection of it being very cyclical with my hormones.

Managing endometriosis / adenomyosis pain during treatment.
I am currently on Buserelin and Estrogen Patches in prep for my FET first week of Jan. Prior to this I had Prostap for 8 weeks and it really helped with my pain. Towards the last week of the Prostap I could tell my pain was increasing and since starting the other medication it has gotten worse. I

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
