Advice - Pituitary and Sex Hormone Levels
Hi again to all of you helpful people! Having added a private (medichecks) blood panel to my latest results, I would like some advice regarding the results, and my next steps. A second cortisol test ruled out Primary Adrenal Insufficiency, and hence I did not have a Short Synacthen Test done. The only

Help requested interpreting lab results
Hi all, I would very much appreciate your help in interpreting my latest lab results, see below. I decided to have FT3 and rT3 and other values checked in a private lab because my endo didn't do so. Reason is remaining hypo symptoms. My levo has been increased from 0.137 to 0.15 per day since mid December

Help with New blood results. Started with functional Doc and want to know your thoughts. Thanks
I am Male. I started going to a functional Doctor as I have gotten tired of dealing with GP's that will not look at anything else but TSH and getting nowhere with them. The blood results are all requested by my functional Doc. With the results she has put me on LDN 1.5mg. Switched from Synthroid

Extreme tiredness, Thyroid testing with Medichecks?
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and was thinking it was pretty much under control now due to the medication. Mid August my tiredness started to creep back in and was becoming rather extreme and stopped me doing my normal routine / having to cancel arrangements etc. My Rheumatologist team ran full blood

Concordance of Fingerstick and Venipuncture Sampling for Fertility Hormones
A frequently asked question here is whether home-draw blood tests using lancets to obtain small amounts of blood are comparable to the standard large samples taken from our veins. Whilst we have had quite a number of people report that when they had two tests done very close in time, the results were

What to do next after RP and RT?
“Is there a proven benefit to continuing ADT if you have high risk PCa even if your PSA is undetectable after RP and RT?” I was diagnosed in November 2017 at age 68 after my PSA was found to be 45.5. Biopsy found Gleason 4+5=9, later confirmed by prostate pathology. Bone scan negative. CT scan showed

2 stone weight gain on levothyroxine. Please help me with blood test results
Hi everyone, I posted on here in Summer as I've been really struggling with my symptoms. Since then I have eventually been able to see an endocrinologist and he allowed me to get my blood tested- he said my T3 and other relevant things would be tested but after looking at the results which I picked up

Another cancellation
So it goes. One embryo left, and still we dis not manage to get my lining ready. It reached 7.2mm with triple line on Tuesday and today after 19 days of estradiol and three scans over a week (not cheap) it is down to 6.5 with triple line breaking. It is maddening. I found the 2ww quite relaxing compared

Lab results, any tips, advice etc is very welcome!
Hi all, Today I visited the endocrinologist. This was the second time I went to this one, after getting stuck with previous internists who only were willing to treat upon TSH and FT4. I I'm on 0.1375 levothyroxine and 4 times a day 5 mcg liotyronine. I still have lots of hypo symptons, most problematic

Could this solve recurring UTIs that many of us suffer with?
Saw a lovely new GP today who may have struck gold re why I have been thwarted with recurrent UTIs for three years. Sometimes, even though there is blood in urine, results show no presence of UTI. So I was fast tracked for cancer tests, however all came back negative - thank goodness. So went to see

Estradiol (estrogen) & Selenium.
New study below [1]. Elizabeth Platz [Johns Hopkins] has been involved in many interesting (to me) PCa studies over the past 3 decades. Including this one. It is an estradiol-selenium study using NHANES III data (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey), but the context is the possible link
