Ferritin Levels/Hair Loss/Thyroid
Good morning I have started to loose my hair and the doctor is insistent its not a change in my thyroid levels, although my TSH has changed over the last couple of readings. So I was told to have a ferritin test and take vitamin D, I also take B12. Thinking that it would be low hence the hair loss

What I mean by this is that I've been on Levo for 25+ years and the Endo has prescribed 12.5mcg twice daily, making it 25mcg a day !!! which (I may be mistaken)

RLS and changing meds
I have been on roprinerole xl (2mg and 4 mg) and the regular. Mostly I take the regular one because the insurance companies don't like to pay for the extended release. Right now, I cut a 4mg regular into 4 equal parts. I take two parts at night, so that's a 2 mg at bedtime and 1 and 1 earlier during

T3 trial continues
Hi there - here are my latest bloods - done fasting with no meds and before 9am - last dose of levo 24 hours before - last dose T3 12 hours before I've worked hard at improving vitamins and minerals - still ferritin is a bit low but currently on a dose of iron tabs from GP so may improve by the end

low ferritin/T3 capsules
hi everyone.. My ferritin test result is 24 (10-300) Nice guidelines say under 30 can have iron infusion? Should I push for that? I picked up my T3 prescription and was planning on splitting them but they are 10mcg capsules.Roma is the brand. I do have 2 boxes of the Greek brand from unipharma

14dpt and negative pt at day 13
I had a negative urine test yesterday day 13 after embryo transfer. I have been told to stop all medications that I was on (progynova, lubion and cyclogest). I am in such a low mood, been crying all day and getting this dull ache in my lower belly. Is this normal? This is my third transfer from 2 cycle

Urinary problem
hello, I'm 41 and since the of may I had some problem. It was really hard for me to urinate, sometimes I just do some drop of urine and nothing more. Also the urine smell quite bad also the sperm smell is not good. Doctor think it may be a prostatitis so they gave me levofloxacine, it isn't the first

Need info for doctor's appointment
I have been freezing cold for many years, but the situation is now ridiculous. I only take off my cardigan when the temperature outside is in the 20s. I had a partial thyroudectomy in 1976, aged 22, after carbimazole failed to do the job. I also suffer from extreme constipation. As I have been diagnosed
