Supplements
Hi lovelies, I have been wanting to start some supplements for my endo but not sure where to start? Currently my worse symptoms are my back and hip pain and my hormones ! I am on an induce chemical menopause and HRT. I’ve heard about NAC, would anyone recommend this to start on first? Thank

Trying to find T3 in Portugal or EU
Hello all- I am an American living in the Algarve. My Endocrinologist here( in Porto) has written a Rx for Sanofi Thybon immediate release(to be taken in small doses over the course of the day) to replace the compounded T3 medication I brought from the United States. I have no idea where to get this

1st results since starting Levo - dose advice and restarting IVF
Morning everyone 🙂 Yesterday I had my 1st endo follow up after starting Levo 6 weeks ago. Some of you may remember my IVF was abruptly cancelled when we discovered I was hashi hypo. I am shocked at the results in 6 weeks. Endo has advised to maintain 75 dose but I have swung a bit out of range

Perimenopause and Venlafaxine?
Hi all I'm 45 years old and have been on HRT (Estradiol + Utrogestan) for a year now. My main symptoms used to be mood swings, night sweats, difficulty to sleep through and hot flushes, which are mostly gone since I've been taking the tablet + applying the gel. The only side effect is that I've put

Gonasi dual trigger wait times, I’m confused!
hello everyone! I’d really love your expertise if I may ask for your help. I had one follicle present 20mm and my Dr gave me gonasi 6000iu on Tuesday 19th March to trigger ovulation and for us to have a go at conceiving naturally. I took Ovitrelle 250mg on Saturday 23rd. Ovulation was confirmed and

HRT Questions
I wondered if any members could recommend or suggest good bioidentical HRT products. I've been on HRT for nearly 7 years. I went into menopause very abruptly after I came off the pill. A lot of weird health issues reared their head at the same time and I admit I wasn't very well at the time. I've mentioned

Painful Breast
I posted this some years ago on behalf on my wife: She has had a pain in the upper inner right quadrant of the breast for the last 2 years. When this first came up she had an appointment at our local hospital and received a bilateral mammogram and all was normal. There was no focal lesion seen. The

T3 trial and latest blood test results

How would I approach my GP with this information? Suffered since I was 6 now 48! Currently on Ropinirole but experiencing augmentation

HRT or not?
I’m currently taking 75mg of levo & a lot of other vitamins, but still feel tired in the afternoons. I usually need a 2 hour nap, but it’s difficult as I work full time. I should think many of you feel the same. I saw the endo at hospital who said my levels were fine & sent me away. I’m waiting

PV Iron deficiency and Endurance
I am 65, diagnosed with PV November 2023 (had pulmonary embolus). I am on Hydrea and all blood counts are now normal. My usual activity has included a lot of bicycling, often long hilly rides (50 miles or more) and multiple days in a row. I asked MD if there was anything that might make me feel more

Ferritin
I know that Ferritin is stored iron but I’m a bit confused about how Ferritin and iron correlate. Is it possible to have Ferritin in range but low iron - and what would be considered optimal Ferritin? My level has just been tested and has gone down from a stable 88 to 34 I’m sorry to be so dumb

TSH has dropped below range
Hi I recently had my tsh tested by my GP. It is 0.17 and the range is 0.27 to 4.2. Previously in March my tsh was around 2 (can't find the actual result). My GP wants to lower my dose but I'm worried that this would not be a good thing and it took a bit of fighting to get the 175mg I'm prescribed. Until

What do you think please?
Happy Easter.Its me again, Im not sure if im over medicated or under? Tried splitting doses took levothyroxine at 4am, then t3 7am. But ive not been feeling right. Lost heartbeats again a little heart pounding today and headache. So feeling worse today? The morning dose seems to affect me the most.

Suspected Vulvadynia? Severe and constant clitoris pain/burning with some pain underneath. All exacerbated by sitting/walking/weeing.
Me and my husband had sex over 6 weeks ago a few days after I began with burning type pain mainly at the front around my clitoris but it did seem to radiate underneath. I began drinking lots of water thinking I have cystitis. 1 week later I saw a GP and although my urine sample was negative to any
