Has anyone else experienced shortness of breath or high anxiety on prostap?
I’ve been on prostap on and off since 2014. My latest set of 3 monthly injections started in June 2020, they were great, stopped all pain and I was happy. Fast forward to December 2020... and the HRT I was taking alongside the prostap is no longer available due to COVID-19 so I was given Estrogel pump

Thyroxine and Oestrogel
Hi. This is a question for anyone taking thyroxine and HRT (specifically Oestrogel). I used to use the gel at night and take my thyroxine in the morning. However due to my sleep issues, a couple of months ago, my endo suggested trying the thyroxine at night. So I swapped them around (thyroxine at night

Timings of thyroid meds, calcium and HRT
Hi. I've had an appointment with my endocrinologist this morning, and he would like me to try taking my thyroxine at night (to see if it helps with sleep), which is actually what I did years ago before being told by a nutritionist I shouldn't. The trouble is, I now take HRT at night (progesterone tablets

Gel instead of tablets
Hello just started on the gel oestrogel instead of the tablets to thicken lining up . Only because I have a lactose intolerance so the tablets contain it . Anyone else used the gel ? Is it as good as the tablets to thicken linning ? Just seems weird to rub a gel on arms and it works the same? Last go

Been to hormone specialist...not sure what to think?!
I am new here, but not new to thyroid problems. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2001 after years of symptoms no doctor could explain: high blood pressure difficult to control even with medication, hair loss, high cholesterol, weight gain and fluid retention. Doctors suggested I was eating too much

Does testogel for IVF delay your period?
Hi ladies Iv been applying
testogel
for 3 weeks tomorrow in prep for an IVF stim cycle for low AMH and I was wondering anyone whose used it before if you found it delayed your period? I am a day late at the moment and doesn’t feel like AF is on her way other than the occasional cramp. Thanks

HRT effects on thyroxine absorption.
Hi. I started HRT 4weeks ago. I felt a little better first week however may be marginally worse now. I'm on oestrogel and progesterone. Can this be having an effect on my thyroxine absorption? My blood test results before I started HRT : T4 18.9 (9-25) TSH 0.29 (0.2-5.0) Should I be applying oestrogen

Update on levothyroxine and HRT
So, decided to go with HRT. Have Estrogel gel and progesterone tablets. Applying 2 pumps of gel in the morning for first two weeks and then taking two tablets and two pumps for the next two weeks. Night sweats are definitely decreasing, only waking twice at the moment after 7 days of the gel! Feeling

Cost comparison between Lupron and Oestrogel
Until the ‘Patch” trial is completed sometime next year there seems to be a lot of unanswered questions regarding the use of tE2. Some warriors on this site maintain that E2 levels should remain in the 20 pg/mL range while many of us including myself appear to be doing quite well using tE2 (patches,

Anyone taking Avodart (Dutasteride) as your only form of ADT?
Just curious as to whether any of you have been able to control your PSA after recurrence? Since dutasteride is an inhibitor of all three 5a-reductase isoforms, it appears to be an effective suppressor of DHT which is a considerably more potent androgen than the testosterone it is derived from. After

Endo & mirena w/out estrogel?
Hi everyone, I’m new on here. I’ve had the mirena coil for a year due to very aggressive endo (strictures in ureters, ovaries stuck, bowel adhesions) but had to ask for estrogen gel supplementation as I was unable to sleep due to excessive night sweats (45 so prob perimenopause). The pain and night sweats
