? Ashwagandha and Maca Root If Hypo
Hi.If anyone who regularly uses Ashwagandha and/or Maca Root, I would love to hear of their experience taking these. I have recently read that both Ashwagandha and Maca Root are natural ways to help rebalance hormones in menopausal women. I am not sure though, if they adversely affect thyroid meds.

menopause
Decided not to take HRT as it will feed a fibroid I’ve got and also my thyroid has gone under active so need to get that to a good level. I just wanted to ask what supplements you ladies take to help with the menopause and how it’s helped you. Thanks in advance

Inability to work is frustrating me.

. Supposedly, I am waiting to get it scheduled by a Yale orthopedic surgeon. I have been walking with difficulty with a cane for far too many years now.

Flare after surgery
I had a
hip
replacement
5 weeks ago and was jogging along OK but then decided I probably needed a new mattress, as I woke up barely unable to get out of bed in the morning because my hips/back were so stiff and painful. It took me some days to realise it might be a PMR flare.

Morphine patches and steroid injections for stage 4 osteoarthritis?
My condition is severe and i am waiting for an orthopaedic consultant appointment, however my GP said they are unlikely to give me a
hip
replacement
as i'm too young (i'm 39). Has anyone else had this surgery at a young age? I am desperate.

Bupropion/Zyban/Wellbutrin and sleep?
Hello, I started 150mg over a month ago. I had sleep issues previously but now they seem to be getting worse. Psychiatrist has recently asked me to take 300mg as apparently I haven’t responded that well to 150mg. Feeling reluctant to do so. My HRT was adjusted at the same time by an endocrinologist.

Disappointing GP visit…referral for talking therapy and poss CFS, no increase in levo
As I’m still very symptomatic (hypothyroidism with history of results in bio) I went back to the GP to explain this, share my Blue Horizon test results and ask for a trial increase to 125mg of levothyroxine. Not a great appointment- apparently I shouldn’t lay everything at the door of my thyroid! GP

A heads up regards being in hospital and on thyroid medication
Hi all, I was in hospital recently (came down with flu, pneumonia and sepsis and was kept in a coma for about a month). I was in an Intensive Care Unit and as I was coming out of the coma, I started asking them about my thyroid medication. . The nurses were vague about the details so eventually I asked

I am wondering if its possible to feel as well on thyroid replacement as I did pre hypothyroid. Just for background looking back 4 years ago I felt really fit and healthy,had plenty of energy, was going to the gym. Then the pandemic hit and my gym closed down and went bust. In June 2020 I finally started
