at last I can try some HRT
I have been prescribed oestrogen 2 pumps as well as Utrogestan 100 for a trial of 3 months. I had a small breast cancer 10 years ago so being cautious. is it better to start with just one pump for a week or so ? or do I go straight in with 2 pumps? Your experiences with this are invaluable . thank

Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally?
I just wanted to ask Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally? I'm supposed to have injection and start HRT soon. Seems stupid but i would like to know other opinions. I have stage 4 endo and my uterus and ovaries are stuck to my bowel and this treatment

itchy red, warm scalp. Also psoriatic or rheumatoid if you are sero-negative?
Hi guys I'm sero-negative. My big joints were affected first - had right knee replacement and hip replacement six months later aged 54 and although initially recovered well from knee replacement - couldn't sit to stand from chair, loo etc and couldn't get of crutches. Had lots of symptoms but still

Thin lining medicated FET
I had my base scan on Thursday on CD11 and my lining is only 7.2mm. I’m a little worried as this is the first medicated FET with 6mg estrogen daily (Elleste Solo 2mg, an HRT drug). Previously I had 2 natural cycle FET and my lining was much thicker 9mm. Since Thursday they have up my dose to 8mg estrogen

Total Abdominal (Bikini cut) Hysterectomy next week..yikes!
Hi all I’m hoping someone on here is able to give me some reassurance, I’m wondering if anyone has any positive experiences of having a total hysterectomy? I keep reading about the extremely difficult recovery (which I do expect) but I’m starting to get really anxious about the whole procedure.. I

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

Knee replacement
Morning my lovely friends! I have to have a knee replacement in the very near future. I am on 4 mg Pred, can probably get down to 3,5 mg. before I have it. Your experiences please —— I am 80 years old and really worried about it. I do understand that it is very very painful but does the Pred hinder

Heart Valve Replacement - severe dizziness and breathing difficulties 1 year+ post op

advice please
so after 3 x TSH (low but in range) and 2 x T4 (low but in range) and 1 T3 and normal antibodies my doctor still will not treat me. These blood tests from October-January. I have to go back again in 8 weeks to repeat bloods. I’m not medicated for my thyroid Last blood test. My TPO was 30 (0-50)

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

NSAIDS anyone ?
When I was diagnosed with RA in 1989 , along with other medication , I was given diclofenac as a NSAID . This was later changed to Meloxicam by my rheumatologist . Which I took daily until this year . Fast forward to May 2021 and I tripped on a step in the house and fell heavily onto my left hip

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

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
