HRT for Osteoporosis
Hi everyone, Has anyone in their 30s been put on HRT for their osteoporosis? If so, what are the benefits, risks and side effects? I'm not clear what it even does. I have tried looking it up online and can only find advice for people going through the menopause!

Need advice on thyroid and HRT issues
I’ve got a TSH stuck close to 0 for some time now. Currently on 75/100. GPs just want to keep lowering Levo. NHS Endo not interested. However I have a follow up with them later this month. Previous private Endo doesn’t specialise in female hormones and was a private consultant so not attached to a hospital

Exhaustion
Is exhaustion just something we have to put up with if you have PA? I’m SI Hydroxocobalamin twice a week with folate supplements , in between getting it from my GP every 2 months. I’m taking a B complex with 5 mg of B6. Potassium is fine, ferritin on the up 65 but I’m still taking gentle iron supplements
