Hot flashes from lack of estrogen
I have had anorexia for 27 yrs now. I'm 39 female. For the past 6 months or so I have been having severe hot flashes and I got my hormones checked at the gynecologist and she told me that I have low estrogen due to the malnutrition caused by the anorexia which is making my pituitary gland not produce

Dysautonomia in Sjögren's - Genital Sore/dry symptoms
Because of the shame or embarrassment sometimes involved in talking about vulvar or vaginal symptoms, I have not really gone into depth with my Rheumatologist.

So despite increasing my T3 dose my FT3 is staying at 5. My FT4 is falling. My symptoms are mostly in check these days but the fatigue and malaise is creeping higher again and it's starting to inhibit what I can do. (Noting that my estrogen is below range and I'm hoping to start HRT soon.) I'm sporadic

prostap hrt and hysterectomy
Hi I’m looking for some advice, I’ve always suffered with my periods since starting them. I’ve tried lots of different contraceptives and found I’m really sensitive. I’ve had 3 children and don’t plan to have any more. I had an ablation done in 2021 which reduced bleeding but made pain more intense

what to do??
I am really struggling, I am wondering if I have hashimotos. Diagnosed with an underactive thyroid in march ( the day my dad died) just 6 months after losing my mother in law.

From a Gleason 9 to a clean CT scan in 18 mos.
18 mos ago, my husband was told by his dr. that he "most likely had two or three good years left." (WHY do they say stupid things like that?) I think that a lot of people believe whatever the dr. says and subconsciously program themselves accordingly. I, on the other hand, thought to myself, "We'll

How important is missing 2 months of ADT?
I'm one month into RT and ADT for 9 months. I chose monthly Eligard. The Urology office made a mistake and came in with a 3-month dose. When I told the nurse I had communicated my 1-month preference prior, she left the room. The Dr. came in, eyeballed the dosage, removed 2/3 and I received it. I was

Managing side effects of ADT
I have found that Richard Wassersug has many blog postings related to ways to manage ADT side effect on the LifeOnAdt.com website. I also found the new version of his book has a great section on dealing with relationship issues. It was very helpful in keeping my relationship with Coco on track when

Will HRT help me?
I have been having bladder sensitivity and urge incontinence for about 3 years. I am 67 and postmenopausal for about 15 years. Is it too late to start HRT and if I did, would it make any difference now?

Any truth to Estrogen being out of the question for hypothyroidism?
I keep getting email adverts from Forefront Health. This week it is lots of terrifying statistics on how suspectable we are to breast cancer and other cancers. I didn't know we had an increased risk of breast cancer. They then go on to say we are almost always estrogen dominant and that we should
