Zoladex NO HRT
I’m getting t my first Zoladex injection today. The doctor said I can’t take HRT with it because the whole point of Zoladex is that I have no hormones causing endo. I read here that many of you got HRT with Zoladex and I’m confused... I also wonder if Zoladex will be as hard on my mental health as hormonal

Slightly low TSH - have no idea if this means anything?
I am a total novice when it comes to thyroid tests! In January my HRT (50yo female) did not seem to be helping with my fatigue and joint pain so I had a range of blood tests. My B12 and Vit D were low so I have commenced the protocols for those. My serum TSH was 0.40 (0.30 - 4.20) which I see is in

UPDATE ON HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY
Hello everyone, I had my hip replacement surgery a week ago today. It went well. I went into the theatre at 9 am and in the recovery room at 11 am. I spent 5 hours in recovery because they had to discharge patients and sanitise the beds and wards so newly operated on patients could have a bed! That

The outcome of my infusion, and a question
On 3 February 23 I had an iron infusion (at a private clinic), and I have finally been able to get a blood test (on the NHS) to see what my serum ferritin and transferrin levels are now. My serum ferritin level has increased from 50.0 to 406.7. My transferrin level is down from 2.26 to 1.74. I was

private blood tests and antibodies?
hi, I am going to purchase some blood tests, I would like thyroid, female hormones (started HRT and want to know where they are now) and vitamin levels. Do I need to test thyroid antibodies if my diagnosis is central hypothyroidism? Or is this irrelevant as the thyroid is not attacking itself? thanks

Help with hypothyroidism & oestrogen
Good evening I was wondering if anybody has had the same experience as myself and how it was resolved. I was first given oestrogel for my peri menopausal symptoms and felt very unwell on it along with the headaches and crippling anxiety and vertigo I feel as if I'm over medicated on my levothyroxine

Parkie King of the slopes - again
So. Coming up for 5 years post diagnosis, 31 January and the tax return marathon behind me, glorious sunshine following a huge dump of snow - it would have been rude not to go skiing with my chums.A bit apprehensively if truth be told, not least because my boots had rotted and I had to hire a pair. But

Need help with Oestradiol and thyroid blood results ASAP please!
I've just received my Medichecks results from yesterday and to say I am alarmed about the Oestradiol result is an understatement. My oestradiol is LOWER than when I tested before starting HRT in September 2022!
