hello Lovely people

I’m on HRT (100mcg oestrogen patch) and 4 grains of NDT a day I’ve had some blood tests and my testosterone is raised Oestrogen still seems low Any idea why that could be? And is this a problem? thank you!!

What was your testosterone level before you started taking HRT? Do you know?

You’re taking DHEA still?

DHEA can increase testosterone

very interesting, thank you. I take 50mcg daily, which was prescribed by my Endo. 50 mcg isn’t a high dose from what I can tell though

I’ll run the results past my Endo and menopause consultant.
