HRT / zolodex / hormone treatment help
Hi all. I posted recently about my concerns regarding zolodex etc. I think my only next steps is a complete hysterectomy due to my issues. HOWEVER. That being said, everyone seems to manage better withHRT and I'm looking to speak with people who have never been able to tolerate any form of hormone treatment

I realised it this morning and took the old one off. I guess it was still giving me oestrogen because

Appointment at Endo Clinic - should I attend
Hi everyone. Hope you are all feeling as well as possible. Feeling like a fraud at the moment. I have been waiting well over a year for my first appointment at a BSGE centre (as many others have), it had been cancelled several times. I had a private consultation and MRI last September and I was diagnosed

pelvic pain and no hrt withdrawal bleed
Hello all, I would be grateful for some advice or reassurance please. I have been on Sequential HRT for 5 years, as started having perimenopause symptoms around then. I have always had a withdrawal bleed once a month. I have found that taking hrt does make me a bit bloated and my tummy a bit uncomfortable

microvascular angina result/reading query
Hi all ! I had an angiogram that looked at Micro Vascular issues and had an IMR reading (index of microcirculatory resistance IMR) of 30 - which means a diagnosis of Micro Vascular Angina.. But does anyone know what this means? Is it good or bad? Barely on the charts or well along? Iāve tried googling
