Dianogest and sore and painful tongue and throat
Hi Ladies, I started taking dianogest about 8 months ago. Most common side effects only lasted few weeks and went away however, since end of September I am experiencing throat pain which radiate to my ears as well.

hot flushes
I’ve struggled with these for about twenty years and they have diminished over time. However, since going on preds, just over five weeks ago, they have got worse. Nothing like when they were at their worst when I was younger, but boy do they wake me up, when my sleep is pretty poor anyway, since the

First DEXA shows osteopenia - hoping for some advice please
Hello everyone, this is my first post to Bone Health, but I have posted to other Healthunlocked forums recently as I’m trying to work through my various health issues. I’m in the UK and hoping to get some advice from those more experienced than me please. I paid privately for my first DEXA scan in April

post menopausal depression and anxiety
hi I am post menopausal and have been left with many new health conditions. I had a total hysterectomy which cured my early stage cancer - everything was removed including my ovaries. Has anyone else been left feeling deflated in post menopause? I have ups and downs with mood swings and my anxiety

A question on 'high' dosage
So I'm currently on 150mcg of levo and 30mcg T3 and my latest results were still only 65% and 62% respectively. I've just started HRT so I may well continue to see improvements but I'm curious about my dosing. I'm 6'1" and roughly 65kg so I'm on the cusp of underweight. I know we need what we need

At Last!
I finally got to run 4 miles on the NRC 10k plan this morning!! 😁 I was beginning to think it would never happen. Normal routine has been absent for what seems like forever. What with falling and hurting my ribs a couple of months ago, then having Mum to stop for a while following her total knee replacement

Does The Thyroid Affect Potassium Levels?
Hi! A bit of a random question but I’ve recently had some bloods taken by my GP surgery and my potassium levels have come back a little low (3.2 range 3.5-5.3) My TSH is 3.06 (range 0.27-4.20), which I think is a little too high although in range, so it got me thinking if there is a link at all between

Utrogeatan and Hashi-soybean lecithin issues?
Hi everyone, I recently started with bioidentixal HRt (oestrodose and Ultrogestan(progesterone). I have hashimotoes so do not eat soy or gluten. Having taken it for about a month I noticed the corners of my inner eyes red and inflamed which is what I get when I consume allergens. On researching I found
