Estrogen Replacement therapy after surgical menopause
Hi everyone! I would like to chat with somebody who may have or is going through a similar experience. I had a full hysterectomy- removal of everything, over 20 years ago. I am on 2mg of Estrogen once per day. The docs used to do the implant yearly but it is no longer available. I am now 51

Changing Medication
Hi I’m just looking for some advice on Targinact and just Oxycodone please. My neurologist wrote to my GP requesting that I be prescribed Targinact 10mg at night and 5mg mornings increasing if necessary by 5mg increments to maximum of 20mg twice a day, also changing the Venlafaxine I take to either

Latest GP appointment
I had a facevto face appointment with a GP on Monday. This was a new GP so thought I stood a chance if levo increase . No the case, I asked nicely, I quoted a few things, I asked for a trail on a increase, she wouldn't budge, she quoted that to have to much levo could make me unwell and they have to

Advice Needed Please
Hi. I’m hoping for some advice. I have an appointment next week to discuss starting on Prostap or Zolodex. I’ve been told I’d have to start HRT alongside it and I’m wondering what experiences people have have with this treatment. I can’t seem to make up my mind and the stress of worrying about it all

Breast lump
I am post menopause and have been taking HRT for 20years due to severe hot flushes! 6 months ago I felt a pea sized lump behind my nipple didn't worry too much then the lump started to get bigger. Went to GP who fast tracked me to Breast clinic with suspected Cancerous lump. I had my appointment yesterday

4 years post menopause, menstruation started again, any ideas why?
I’m asking for someone not on this forum. She is 52, went through menopause 4 years ago relatively easily. Now out of the blue it seems menstruation has started again, the full Monty, sore bosoms, cramps and bleeding. The bleeding she says is worse than even post natal, very heavy and she’s left feeling

HRT, low white blood cell count & NDT
I have been having appointments with my GP to try and get an HRT prescription. She wanted a blood test doing first - I have been taking NDT for about 8 years (doing really well on it) and basically my GP didn't understand it, stopped calling me in for blood tests and I haven't been for years. The blood

Peri fatigue and HRT
Hi, I’m new to this forum but a regular on RA forum which I find so helpful, I’m 46 and so presumed in peri-menopause, still have periods, bit erratically. I also have RA diagnosed 18 months ago. Which is now relatively well controlled on biologic. My GP had prescribed combined HRT as my RA does

Restless legs and peri menopause
Hi allNew to the group! I'm having a really bad time with insomnia because of RLS. I had it under control when I started on HRT. The times I've had RLS have been puberty and pregnancy. So does seem to be related to hormonal changes. I'm on highest does of HRT but seems it's not working anymore as RLS

Too old for HRT?
Hi everyone, I’m 66 and just started HRT. I’m on Lenzetto spray and Utrogestan. I keep worrying that I’m too old to be on HRT. Are there any other ladies out there who have just started at my age and if so, has it helped?

T3/T4 HRT Meds before surgery?
Hello lovely people, i hope everyone is managing to catch up on the long overdue sun ;) Sadly, my gynaecologist has found an ovarian tumour which needs to be removed and biopsied. Recovery from this will take between 6-8 weeks. I am in really good health otherwise but do take 150mg Levo and 45mg Liothyronine

Si Joint/back pain
Hi I have a history of back pain and endometriosis. I recently turned 50 and leading up to my period my si joint pain has suddenly got worse and it all goes into spasms and I literally can't do a lot. It's not great the rest of the month either. I had linked it to the menopause or back issues but

GP Coming - what to ask
having my annual review tomorrow and GP is coming to see me. Looking at all my past results I wonder, with them being up and down constantly, whether I am one of those whereby Levo no longer works for me and might be keeping me ill. Diagnosed back in 2005 and it's too far back to remember how I was

Update after GP call
Had my call with the GP that I mentioned in my last posts. That was a bit of a disaster, although not as bad as it could have been. She did not read my notes or blood test results before the call. She asked me about symptoms, but was only concerned about weight gain and dry skin. I had already gone
