Total hysterectomy without HRT?
I have been offered
oestrogen
HRT but I’m reluctant to use it because of the endometriosis and bad reactions to the pill and coil in the past. I am trying herbal remedies and don’t feel too bad.

Light headed, pins and needles, headaches
In addition I take HRT -
oestrogen
(topical), progesterone and testosterone. I am under a ‘menopause specialist’ for those meds. GP ran my annual thyroid bloods. I requested the additional ones.

New Data: Finasteride Safely Prevents Prostate Cancer'These Results Are Transformational,' Says Researcher May 20, 2018
But: "Who uses it today? Almost nobody." "We have answered the questions and closed the book." As reported in 2003, the risk for prostate cancer over the initial 7-year study period was 25% lower with finasteride than with placebo. That risk reduction now "goes out to 16 years, at least," (unlike ADT

Hello you lovely souls, hope you're all doing OK and enjoying the spring sunshine! I've just started my prep for medicated FET and wanted to ask you what kinds of side effects have you experienced in estrogen, if any? I'm taking 3x2mg estrofem/ day.

Bleed following chemical pregnancy
I then stopped all medication - prognova,
oestrogen
patches and progesterone pessaries. When should I expect my horrible bleed? So far I have only had the brown continue with a few specks of red.

What Next?
As I am
oestrogen
positive, Anastrozole is a possibility. This is an unknown to me, so I should welcome hearing from anyone who has had this. Jenny

Does anyone know much about estrogen and progesterone issues?
Sorry I have posted so many questions and I think this may be in the wrong place but I was wondering if anyone might know. I have had sore throat and achy body/muscles, I feel like I’m coming down with the flu, I’ve had this for a a year, there is no pattern but 80% of the last year I’ve had these symptoms

Is it safe to take Biotin Supplements to try and promote hair growth & reduce thinning.
I've also heard that
Oestrogen
in the form of HRT can help with hair thinning, but I have also read it can cause it, so I am reluctant to go down that route. Any thoughts, much appreciated!!

Evorel Patches not sticking!
I usually have Estradot patches (
Oestrogen
only) just moved up to 75mg and a different GP signed off my prescription & put it through as generic. I have therefore ended up with these stupid Evorel patches. They are so enormous! I changed it on Tuesday & today it started lifting up & bagging.

Thinking of using NDT or private trial of T3- advice please
Constantly cold, continuing to gain weight despite following WW and healthy eating, now also losing hair, skin problems and have previously had breast cancer (
oestrogen
positive) all of which I believe to be linked to still being hypothyroid.

High FSH results of 30
So results are amh is now higher at 1.45 (low but I am so happy it’s rising each time) my
oestrogen
is normal but horrors my FSH is very high at 31. I believe logically that your FSH levels can fluctuate due to many things so I am staying positive.

Safe Weight Bearing
I am a 64 yo, 20 year breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis after 5 yrs on estrogen inhibitor, Tamoxifen, and immediately put on Prolia in 2014. A recent bone scan indicates treatment is no longer effective, my results indicate osteoporosis of the spine and hips. Monday I received

Finally Got Up Enough Nerve to Show My Boobs After four Years (next month) On Estradiol Gel.
After a failed prostate surgery, and an unfounded lymph node surgery, the 'only' thing that I am doing now to keep my PC at bay is applying transdermal E2 gel. My last PSA was 0.0I2. I took this pic tonight in the gym. Sorry if it grosses some of you out; however, many guys are curious as to how badly

ADT and mental issues
I have done a dozen ADT sessions (4 weeks to 5 months). Each time I used a low or high-dose estrogen patch. I did one in January/March and did not use an estrogen patch. So my testosterone was close to zero as well as my estrogen. I have never had mental issues when I did ADT. This time I did. Depression

Cyclogest or utrogestan??
Hi all, it’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. We are currently pursuing egg donation and are hopefully going to be matched with a donor very soon! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 It may seem a silly question but our clinics pharmacy has prescribed us utrogestan and estradiol for my progesterone and estrogen medicine

Oral vs transdermal estrogen
It´s often said that transdermal estrogen is safer as it is not metabolised by the liver. However, this article claims that oral estrogen is more cardio-protective: https://www.hormonedoc.net/files/2019/01/WLM-rouzier-editorial-for-part-1-email-1.pdf It states that the risks of oral estrogen are related
