Avatar f tn And also cholesterol levels? Low thyroid and low testosterone often are associated with high lipid/cholesterol levels.

Avatar f tn t absorbing it which would imply that your symptoms are from the loss of your ovaries and not the estradiol itself. I am also on estradiol tablets but I don't take mine orally. I either insert them vaginally or let them dissolve between my cheek and gum (transbuccal). And I use a higher dose of 1mg. My Rx is for 2mg but since I don't take them orally / swallow (no first pass through the liver), I cut them in half and only take 1mg. The use of only 1/2 pill makes it dissolve faster too.
Avatar n tn Metabolism) showed that treating such patients can lower cholesterol and LDL, improve function of the blood vessels, reduce obesity, and reduce fatigue. As far back as 2003, before much of the research on subclinical hypothyroidism emerged, the ATA claimed that it was up to the doctor and patient to decide whether patients with your TSH should be treated. I have a TSH less than yours - I can certainly tell you, those symptoms are certainly familiar!
Avatar f tn I started out tired in the fall. Now I have a goiter and suffer from internal shaking (head, arms, legs). Exercise aggravates the problem. I stopped taking birth control pills in March. However, since June I haven't had a menstrual cycle, and my estrogen is high. Can anyone help with these lab results? My endocrinologist has me all over the place--neurologist, sleep study, lab work, ENT--no answers. January: TSH .784 (.350-5.
Avatar n tn I'm 29 years old lady, married since 8 years, with no chance to get pregnant up-to-moment, since 4 years the symptoms started and were as follow: feeling of pressure on the front face of the neck, and sometimes on the left side, bone and joint pain, recurrent vaginal infection, stomach ache and hyperacidity, bloating, mucus in stool, diarrhea, constipation, weight gain, dry skin, but the cycle was regular, beside an every month cyst on the left ovary "2.
Avatar n tn The estradiol supresses this mechanism, allowing multiple follicles to mature, and making your chlomid or other drugs a better shot at producing multiple eggs.
Avatar f tn I have relatively no risk for heart disease, no family history and no high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes or anything else that might raise my risk. I'm just wondering if I should be concerned.
Avatar n tn i am currently taking a cholesterol pill called pravastatin. 20mg. tablet. and niacin 500mg. twice a day. also taking hormones. medroxypr ac 2.5 mg. 1X daily. also estradiol 1mg. per day. also take b-complex sublingual liquid once per day. i can't figure out if it's one of these pills that i am taking or something else wrong. i have never had these symptoms before. can anyone help me figure out what to do. my doctor doesn't listen to me.
Avatar f tn In the past three days my beta increased from 186 to 534, but my progesterone and estradiol both dropped. Progesterone went from 93 to 73.3 and estradiol went from 520 to 503. Should I be concerned? I'm 15 days post-transfer. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Actually, your numbers are not too bad. If you could get your LDL under 130 it would be a great start. That can be done with diet and exercise and a statin if that doesn't work. Your total is high because your HDL is very high, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. High HDL can be an indication of some underlying diseases conditions so you should make sure there are none. Your tri's and ratio look good. Again, you need to ask your doctor if he is comfortable with your high HDL.
1386249 tn?1303092096 I need some feedback on my hormone levels since this hormone testing is new to me. I haven't heard from my OB, but this is what my Progesterone and Estradiol levels are according to my family doc: tell me what you think ON CD10 taken February 24 Progesterone level is 0.7 Estradiol level is 1.71 What this means...I have absolutely no clue. I tried reading on it, and it seems as if I should not have tested on CD10. I should have tested on CD 3....is this correct?

216278 tn?1308861082 , it has been determined that I have sub-clinical hypothyroidism and my estrogen levels are low. This is the first month that I have worn an Estradiol patch and am just getting concerned! I know that the best advice and words of wisdom come from those who have experienced it, so I thought that I would start here... Is it possible that this patch can raise my Estrogen to a level that would hinder my chances at pregnancy this month? (I wear it for 10 days after I ovulate!) Thanks!
Avatar n tn For menopausal reasons and especially at your age, I am glad to see your doctor gave you estradiol and only that (no other estrogens in the mix). As far as the patch goes, use trial and error if you have problems with it sticking. Also, sometimes if you are exercising frequently, you may be metabolizing the estradiol rather quickly, so keep a list of symptoms as they occur so that you can share this info with your doctor in case a dosing change has to be made.
Avatar f tn t remember and foggy thinking and worsening allergie symptoms. I also have somewhat high cholesterol and hypoglycemic and constipation. The list is even longer but these are the ones I struggle with the most. I am just not myself anymore, i haven't been for about 2 years now. I'm so tired of this constant battle as it has ruined my life and my relationships my family and friends. I know there something wrong and if I could just get the help I need I could win this.

Avatar m tn Low vit D, A1C creeping up, very high good and bad cholesterol, crazy high estradiol and high estrone, (was on oral estradial) low cortisol 7-9am and 10-12pm, high melatonin 3-5 pm and 2:30 to 3:30. I stopped the estradiol, have been taking many supplements for a year since these tests to support adrenals and thyroid support complex, plus prometrium to balance out the high estrogen.

1134811 tn?1284550821 The change in cervical mucus I did not notice. However my doctor prescribed estradiol at the same time with my 150mg of Clomid. The estradiol helps to create more of the beneficial ewcm. I also did the 150mg of Clomid with no IUI. The side effects at this high of a dose were terrible for me though... Ugh!
594914 tn?1245263684 Overall, estrogen is produced in the ovaries, adrenal glands and fat tissues. More specifically, the estradiol and estrone forms are produced in the ovaries, while estriol is produced by the placenta during pregnancy. In women, estrogen circulates in the bloodstream and binds to estrogen receptors on cells in targeted tissues, affecting not only the breast and uterus, but also the brain, bone, liver, heart and other tissues.
374593 tn?1257879950 My estriodol level went up slightly to a whopping 184 on Friday cd13. The doc wants me to come in on MOnday for another check to see if I am ready for (trigger shot+ ) IUI early in the week. I had four follies on cd 12 measuring 12,11,11,9, etc. and the dr sent me home to grow a few more days. I hear stories of people having really high estriodol levels and mine is just under 200 with 4 follies. I am concerned this e2 level isn't strong enough for IUI and and I don't want the dr.
