l am 77 years of age and began my gynae journey in November 2021. My first consultant did not really take me seriously when l told him at 75 l was having heavy post menopause bleeds, more like a haemorrhage than a normal period bleed, along with persistent constipation, which l now know can be a pointer

knee replacement post transplant
Good morning all, I wonder if any one has experience of a total knee replacement post transplant please? My husband has needed this operation for about the last two years but because his liver was so damaged couldn’t have until his health improved. When came to the top of the waiting list last Christmas

Oestrogen only HRT
Hello. Does anyone have any experience of taking oestrogen only HRT after a partial hysterectomy? I've been recommended this,by a BSGE consultant, but didn't think that oestrogen only was a good option and now I'm really confused. I have had 4 excision surgeries for stage 4 endo and still have, now

Lap surgery then hysterectomy surgery wait time
I am having a lap next week to in the words of my surgeon 'have a look around' and then followed up with a hysterectomy including removing womb, cervix, ovaries, fallopian, one 14cm mass and one 18.5cm mass plus two fibroids. I have been waiting two years. Does anyone know how long they normally wait

HRT patches
Taking estrogen patches - had a
total
hysterectomy
- became even more ill with all sorts of symptoms that pointed to low estrogen. Patches are the solution, terrific, help in many ways, feel better than have for many years.

Advice on iron status
Hi lovely people, I was hoping to get some advice on my iron status. A bit of background, I have just recently increased levo to 88mcg a couple of weeks ago, and was on 75mcg before that. So, I am aware that my thyroid hormone is still too low. It's a slow process getting docs to increase! My question

Looking for others who have had a hysterectomy with ovaries removed in their 30s - to get your experiences
Hi all, I'm looking for personal experiences of those who had a hysterectomy with ovaries removed in their 30s. Little about me and why I'm asking. I have been diagnosed with adenomyosis and endometriosis. Had a laparoscopy with removal of some endometriosis in May 22, also had the marina coil fitted

Experiences with Hysterectomies?
I waited 8 months for my hysterectomy consult! They are hoping to have the surgery booked for end of next month. I am hoping to find out all kinds of stories and experiences with them, to be prepared for my “eviction” day lol. Thanks everyone!

Shot in the Dark
Can anyone advise what these results mean please? I am not on Thyroid meds but feel something is very off, I’m in perimenopause also. These results were 7 months ago. I’m losing hair, shaking inside, cold all the time, weight loss. I’m on HRT. I had iron deficient anaemia in 2020. Feel like I’m going

Can anyone help with iron panel interpretation please
This is a friend’s recent iron panel Posted a couple of days ago but hoping for a better response this time I’ve looked on rT3 adrenals where it says a low transferrin level indicates a lack of capacity for supplemental iron. I really don’t understand this when it’s clear her whole panel is low,

This might be found useful?
I was on here quite a bit after a total knee replacement two years ago. Nothing much seemed to help that wasn't either an opoid or some other harsh drug. I decided to load up on Fenugreek water each day (one quart from simmering 2 Tablesp. seed in one quart of water, cooling, then straining-seeds can

Considerations before a hysterectomy
My consultant who performed my laproscophy said I could have a hysterectomy 1 year after my c section. (Private) I had a tube removed and endometriosis removed in my last lap. I thought there would be other treatments to explore first?! I'm 35. Finished my struggle to get my kids. Am in constant
