Hypericum perforatum: St. John’s Wort
Found this little beauty by a small man made pond while taking a little walk about yesterday. Hypericum is one of my herbal allies that can really help put some sunshine in my brain when it’s been days and days of cloudy or stormy. There are many ancient superstitions regarding this herb. It’s name

TPO and TG thyroid antibodies & anti depressants
Good health to all in 2020! Could someone please explain why it is important to have TPO and TG thyroid antibodies tested? I finally found a decent endo. who accepts that more than TSH needs to be tested. Only he doesn’t think it necessary to check TPO & TG. He explained why at the end of a long

Does anyone have any info on endometriosis and peri menopause/menopause?
My GP recommend
St
Johns
Wort
and isoflavon herbal supplements, which I’ve been on since July. But now all of a sudden I’m having monthly periods and I’m in pain. I’m now concerned this has affected my endometriosis and the last time I had a scan I had a endometrioma. Can anyone relate?
