ADT and mental issues
I have done a dozen ADT sessions (4 weeks to 5 months). Each time I used a low or high-dose estrogen patch. I did one in January/March and did not use an estrogen patch. So my testosterone was close to zero as well as my estrogen. I have never had mental issues when I did ADT. This time I did. Depression

Cyclogest or utrogestan??
Hi all, it’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. We are currently pursuing egg donation and are hopefully going to be matched with a donor very soon! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 It may seem a silly question but our clinics pharmacy has prescribed us utrogestan and estradiol for my progesterone and estrogen medicine

Oral vs transdermal estrogen
It´s often said that transdermal estrogen is safer as it is not metabolised by the liver. However, this article claims that oral estrogen is more cardio-protective: https://www.hormonedoc.net/files/2019/01/WLM-rouzier-editorial-for-part-1-email-1.pdf It states that the risks of oral estrogen are related

Do you lower your dose of estrogen (progynova) after FET?
For an FET - I’ve always continued on the same does of estrogen (progynova) from my first scan until pregnancy test. I’ve read a couple of blogs that suggest estrogen dose is lowered after transfer? Does anyone do that? Yes/no? Thanks ❤️

Start Over or Decrease Dose
The labs below are for 2 grains of NP Thyroid tested about 10 hours after my dose. I see an Integrative doctor and we are not agreeing on the next step . I definitely felt overmedicated. I was emotional, looked and felt horrible, and felt like I was starving all the time, so I believe I need to lower

Reference Ranges
Good morning! I am sure I'm overlooking this resource, but I can't seem to find an easy-to-read reference range for thyroid testing. I've checked NICE and the American College of Endocrinology (I'm in the US), but I can't seem to find it. My doctor's appointment is tomorrow so I made a list of everything

Decapeptyl and norethisterone together
Hello - I’m into my seventh week of the decapeptyl treatment to shrink fibroids. I was having profuse bleeding so I was out back into norethisterone which has stopped the bleeding.

New symptoms
Hi everyone. I've had IBS forever. Over 30 years. I also have GERD. I started the FODMAP diet over a year ago, sorted out what upsets my stomach and I was happy with that. I've recently started being woken in the night with gas pains and loose stools then felt awful all of the next day. I've recently

High estrogen in middle of cycle
Hi everyone, I'm on day 8 of my icsi stims cycle and just had a call to say my estrogen is high and to reduce my gonalf dose. I'm already on a lower dose compared to my first ivf cycle (300ui bemfola). I'm on 225ui gonalf and they've asked me to reduce to 150ui. Just wondering if anyone has experienced

Does the Mirena increase PMDD symptoms?

*Sensitive* Early miscarriage? Or still hope?
As mentioned in a previous post I started spotting/bleeding Sunday after getting a BFP on Tuesday (8th). This had continued all this week, it’s definitely been heavier at times but not full on flow and has ranged from brown to red to pink. I would say there has been some clotting but there is a a lot
