Loosing the will to live
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease in 1996. Luckily my GP screened for the antibodies as my T4 was borderline; purely because his daughter had been diagnosed with it. At the time I was passing out all the time, I had developed psoriasis, I had brain fog, depression and a host of other symptoms

Pessary in pessary out this morning and not a great experience
Hi, I don't want to give too much detail and put people off who might find it a useful option but I had to have the pessary removed within two hours. I have a stage two uterine prolapse but my GP said she didn't think I could reverse it with exercises as there is 'significant descent'. I've been

Endometriosis and tooth problems
Hello, I was diagnosed with endo in 2012 and I've had 4 laposcopys, a mirena coil fitted and removal of my left tube and ovary. Since then I've been put on 3 rounds of decapeptyl injections each month, (9 months on and 6 months off) over 4 years and I was only given HRT for my last round of the injections

HRT - decreases B12 levels?
Hi all I posted about abdominal pain/problems in December- got a whole lot of helpful replies. GP sent me for blood tests and scan - all clear thankfully. Seems to have settled now - not sure what caused it or why ok now. Thanks for the advice given. Anyway, my new query - I just haven’t been well

Anyone taking DHEA alongside their prescribed body identical HRT please?
I'm on Evorel Conti and learnt today from a friend that DHEA may benefit me.

Post 2 - my own bloods - advice please :)
Hi everyone Posted about my dads bloods for feedback but also curious about my own results. I had my levels tested through GP a few weeks ago and they were looking good (tsh around 1, t4 I think around 17). I was therefore surprised to see the following when I got my tests done privately through medichecks

Help needed interpreting advanced thyroid blood test 🙏
Hi, I’m new here and looking for help interpreting recent blood tests. At the bottom of this rather lengthy post are the results of tests I just had done via the testing company Monitor My Health. I paid for the advanced thyroid panel of testing and it’s the first time I’ve had FT4 & antibodies tested

Surgical menopause - HRT and cutting patches
HeyI had a oophorectomy in June, struggled to get the right balance of estrogen. Finally put on the 100mg patches which have made a difference in terms of I'm not a complete emotional wreck and can function with life better.
