Low AMH
How long did you wait between cycles?Did you see a decrease in eggs retrieved the next round? I've had a round in Jan which resulted in fresh transfer, nothing frozen but it didn't work. My AMH is 5pmol. I'm planning to jump straight back in but I'm not sure if the break would do me good, possibly

Hypothy in Canada, looking for any advice

I was told my number is above the "normal " range. But they cannot or will not use the exact numbers, so the Dr's

Taking LEVO. Should I stop eating goitrogenic vegetables?
I’ve just read about Goitrogenic foods and their effects on the thyroid. Do all of you that have Hypothyroidism and are “in the know” avoid these? I’ve been vegetarian (for many years) and my evening meal always consists of lots of vegetables, (including cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower etc), but I’

My husband, almost 72, just had blood work with everything good except cholesterol (little high 227) and high TSH 7.93, slightly low T4. He has no symptoms of hypothyroidism! Since he has no symptoms, we're waiting 3 months to retest and T3 also, and he works 45 hours a week loading and unloading yard

Private Test Results
Hi I've just got my private test results and would like to know if these are ok. The test was only a cheap one so don't have any vitamin results.

Hi I'm just starting this journey of information. I am subclinical hypo - last test TSH 6.83. I've got a lot of symptoms and i'm unsure whether it's all down to thyroid, or if I am vitamin deficient, or if I am starting another fun journey of perimenopause.
