Implantation failure help?
Hi all, I've been following many of the infertility journeys and I'm hoping someone has some advice. I've just had my 4th negative from a day 5 transfer with both embryos aa grade. I'm worried that my uterus is not receptive. I've been on steroids, aspirin and take metformin for PCO but want to know

Amenorrhea and metformin
Hello, I've recently been diagnosed with PCOS after years of absent or few periods and currently I haven't had a period for over 1 year. As background, I'm 31, my BMI is around 20, I am athletic, and have done some type of sport or workout everyday since my teenage years. I've been put on 1000mg Metformin

Crap day, brusque Doctor
I have menopause kicking my ass as well as thyroid. I’m having a bad day. I should put a sack over my head really and stay in a corner. The thing that is upsetting me most today apart from the endless lack of energy and the constant aches, pains and stiffness in my joints and non-functioning brain,

Confused
66 yo, had RALP 3 years ago, Gleason 3X4, cancer in 1 node, PSA after 0.1 and now 10.5 with multiple bone mets on recent scan and minimal pain. Have diffuse coronary artery blockages and refused 5 vessel bypass last year - and am doing well on cardiac meds at this time. All regimens for me at this stage

Xgeva and Bone Mets
Fighting PC since December of 2003. Under Dr. Myers was in long term remission until 2015 when PSA started doubling. With more ADT went to undetectable. New MO suspicious since I am Gleason 9 (5+4). Said that with high Gleason sometimes PSA did not show mets. Bone scan in December last year. Mets

Benefit of statin and metformin in the treatment of high risk CRPC
Hi everyone I have seen that many posts in this forum indicate that the addition of statin and metformin in the treatment of prostate cancer will be beneficial during hormone therapy. In my case I am on second line hormone therapy (Aberaterone + Prednisone ) for the past one year. I have undergone orchiectomy

Friday night blues
So I'm struggling with depression again. It seems to happen often on Friday nights when I'm alone. I am married but not happily, I'd like to split but he won't go and I just know how complicated the fight would get. I know he'd stalk me and we'd spend a fortune on lawyers cause he'd fight everything.

Why doesn’t t3 work for me
I have always known I was hypothyroid, finally dr M. checked my labs, my Rt3 was 21 and free t3 was 3.4. Free t4 was 0.90. I have the other lab values if needed. My a1c , and I have never been diagnosed as a diabetic.... was 5.4. So I was prescribed cytomel 5 mcg and metformin 500er twice a day.
