Avatar m tn What are you trying to accomplish? Get some exercise, or look a certain way? Unless you're a professional bodybuilder who will make a ton of money doing this, it's a bad idea for your health. Of course you're free to do what you want with your body, but as this is a nutrition forum, it's unlikely any of us will encourage you to overdo anything. Now, what are these downsides?

Avatar n tn I have been diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis for 6 years now and take Armour thyroid. Last year I saw a naturopathic holistic doctor to find relief from PMS symptoms and general fatigue and irritability, and acne. He prescribed me a natural progesterone cream to be used between days 14-28 of my cycle. It has made a huge difference in my energy levels, mood, skin clarity and elasticity, has even helped me lose some weight.
402702 tn?1325887812 I would talk to your doctor more to understand at what phase your body is having difficulty building the lining. Estrogen works to start building the lining in the beginning of your cycle, at ovulation, progesterone takes over can continues building the lining. A lot of women with lining problems also have problems with progesterone. They can still ovulate, but the levels are too low to build an adequate lining.
Avatar m tn Poly cystic ovarian syndrome. Your ovum basically swell inside your ovaries. This happens normally with ovulation, but one egg at a time on either side. PCOS happens with multiple eggs at once, and they aren't released. It has a lot to do with estrogen production in your ovaries and hormones in your thyroid gland too. PCOS has symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, irritability, hairiness... Lol. It can be difficult to conceive sometimes, and many women with PCOS have irregular periods.
760134 tn?1318549966 my question is really simple Iwas wondering if your body temp goes up with the start of your period coming? cause mine has and usually I thought it was when u only ovaulate. just wondering .
Avatar f tn I have been experiencing more extreme body heat and sweating recently. I am 57 years old and had a histerectomy when I was 45. I am trying to get off estrogen that I have taken since my hysterectomy. I recently quit smoking and have gained a little weight I weigh 160 - 170. I have gout, IBS, meneries desease. Should I be worried?
587083 tn?1327120262 ve read much conflicting information about this, but what I believe we can say for sure is that soy products (soy milk, tofu, edamame) supply a weak form of estrogen from plant sources, called phytoestrogens. With menopause your body stops making estrogen. Eating soy products seems to boost the estrogen a bit, but is that good? I was a regular consumer of soy milk, tofu, edamame and flax seed after menopause.
Avatar m tn Endometriosis feed off estrogen. The estrogen-dependent endo lesions, if left unchecked, will begin to create their own estrogen. I do want to clarify that the pill or any other form of HRT does not prevent the Endometriosis from growing. The reason it is used is to help stop the pain by stopping the periods. I was on a low dose BCP (Marvelon) for 8 yrs continuously and did help with my pain. However it still continued to grow even after deep excision surgery.
Avatar f tn I am not through menopause yet but I can tell you that if you were both to start using prescription progesterone cream (bio-identical hormone) you would begin to feel much better. Before your get the cream you will need to have your female hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone) evaluated. It should help you both with any symptoms you may have. Progesterone will help protect your bones from bone loss. Not many gynecologists use prescription bio-identical progesterone cream.
Avatar m tn please tell me some exercises or diet to get rid of it and also I go to gym and been building body since 4 months but no effect on moobs .
Avatar f tn If your cancer is estrogen receptive (estrogen fed), there are two drugs being used orally, Arimidex and Tamoxifen. I took Arimidex for about a month, but the bone pain side effect was bad for me. I think there are ladies on here that take tamoxifen, it seems to be used more.I don't know what else is available for recurrence, maybe someone else does.
Avatar n tn Hi. Estrogen (estridiol) containing pills, or birth control pills, can wreak havoc on the thyroid. When you take estrogen it interferes with the amount of thyroxine being made. Now, you have hypothyroidism. The same thing happened to me after I had just 1 shot of Depo Provera. It could be that you had some very small symptoms of becoming hypothyroid before you started taking the Yasmin. The Yasmin, could have set it off. People who have hypothyroidism usually need to take it for life.
Avatar m tn I also wanted to say that no matter what you do make sure you keep your scrotum away from your body as much as possible. Body heat will also make your sperm count low. Hence why you should wear looser clothing and underwear and shouldn't ride bikes. Whatever you do just make sure there's as little contact between your body (or anything else that's hot) and your scrotum.
Avatar n tn I don't have my blood test in front of me but cortisol was below normal, also estrogen, progest and testosteronews very low. I am taking prednisone 15mg a day for over a year now and can't get off of that. It's a mess. everything is short circuiting.
20922415 tn?1661860103 Progesterone is one of the sexual hormones in the female bodies maintains and regulates sexual well-being. In males, it is produced in a small amount for sperm development. It is the main and vital hormone that plays a significant role in menstrual cycle health preparing the body for conception and development of pregnancy. 1.
Avatar f tn In this case, a dye is injected into a vein, you lay flat on a table, and the table moves through a special machine shaped like a giant doughnut. The machine projects a thin x-ray beam through your body and measures the output. The dye helps give more contrast to the blood vessels making them easier to identify. A computer takes the information from the x-ray scan and, using sophisticated mathematics, generates a three-dimensional image of your liver and surrounding anatomy.
Avatar f tn A phantom sensation of ants or other insects crawling on their skin is a sign of low estrogen. Taking phytoestrogen (mimics estrogen) supplements such as soy, black cohosh, ginseng, or red clover can help. Full effects can take a few months to kick in. You can find phytoestrogen supplements at health food stores and pharmacies.
Avatar n tn If breast cancer runs in your family i am surprised that your doctor would give you anything that has estrogen in it. I think you are better off getting off the cream and living with the symptons.
Avatar n tn Yes, a person can be stressed without really realizing how much they are. But there are a lot of reasons for irregular periods, so you should get some things tested, like thyroid function, prolactin, FSH, LH, estrogen and progesterone levels, for example. Also, get a pelvic exam and ask for a pelvic ultrasound.
Avatar f tn If you wanted to continue Vagifem, I would consider scanning again in 3 months to see if the lining was building up again. If so, you could stop the medication, or consider a small daily dose of progesterone. Hope this helps!
649848 tn?1534633700 These vitamins can come back out as you lose weight, and as you decrease your body fat, you also allow more of your new vitamin D to stay in your bloodstream. Water-soluble compounds can just be peed out if you take too much of them, but because the vitamins stored in your adipose tissue can continue to build up you can eventually overdose on them. It’s rare, but it does happen.
Avatar f tn Also for consideration is that all sex and thyroid hormone is made from the base cholesterol molecule, so if you are very low cholesterol, your body would not have the building blocks to even make steroid and other hormones. Low thyroid typically causes high cholesterol. I am not saying you have a sex hormone imbalance. But you have many symptoms that cross both Hyper and Hypo thyroid. And I am wondering if other hormone issues are adding into your overall state of feeling poorly.
