Clueless about my underactive thyroid
Hi everybody :) I have been feeling tired, exhausted , moody, forgetfull, dizzy and getting brown patches on my forehead for years and first asked for a blood test in 2011 that came back negative but I'm pretty sure I had an underactive thyroid then, something was low but doctor said I was fine and didn't

thyroid and prolactin issue

Pituitary, Prolactin, Thyroid?
I'm 33 old male, Serum Prolactin level 474 mu/L (86.0 - 324.0) - Above high reference limit. I'm told this can be due to stress, medication and Hypothyroidism. Couple of weeks later I had a retest. Serum Prolactin level 549 mu/L (86.0 - 324.0) - Above high reference limit I'm on a trial of Levothyroxine

Diagnosed with hypothyroidism after raised prolactin levels.
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 12 years ago. The first symptom was a raised prolactin level. Bloods repeated showed a slight fall in prolactin but TFT's all out. Over the years I have been on as little as 25mcg and as high as 150mcg. I am now on 75mcg a day. I have put on weight particularily around

Bloody Endo!!
Well I've just come back from the Hospital. My appointment was with Dr E but I ended up seeing another Dr. I was there less than 10 minutes, took a list of all my symptoms, supplements etc and he told me most of my symptoms, bar 1 or 2 were because I was still grieving for my brother! (Lost him almost

I need help with my blood test results
Hi, I've been suffering from low testosterone since 20. I'm 33 now and I had a lot tested by the endocrinologist. My testosterone came back within normal limits but it was in the lower range. I don't know how to interpret my estrodial levels because there is no range. I'm trying to get a six pack and

What next?
I have been TTC for 2 years. In Feb last year I was diagnosed with high prolactin and put on Bromocriptine. My periods went a bit wonky and it took some time for the levels of prolactin to come down, but eventually I got pregnant in September. Unfortunately, I had a mmc, and lost the baby completely

Thyroid/ Adrenal Supplements Vs Prolactin
Prolactin usually 'normal' Serum. But on taking Thyroid or Adrenal Supplements, Prolactin Serum increases. Can see perhaps connection Adrenal Supps effecting CRH which in turn may stim Prolactin? Can't put together Thyroid Hormone connection? Has anyone got any ideas re Pathway Stimulating Possibilities

Endometriosis. Infertility. Prolactin
Hi. After trying to conceive for the past 6 years I visited my GP in 2011 I was referred for several blood tests and told I had high levels of prolactin and because of this I would never get pregnant. I was upset at this but was never told there was anything that could be done. I have always suffered
