631270 tn?1224862606 Hi Mary Pat, I know there is a woman who has spoken of taking injections that (I think) included Estrogen and I recall reading her posts on the Hysterectomy site. There is also a woman who answers posts (has in the past for sure, but I have not dropped by that site for a while) about Hormone replacent and she uses Estrogen pellets and I know she uses Testosterone but I cannot recall if that is in the pellet, but I think it is.
Avatar f tn Hmm, breast tenderness is usually a side effect of estrogen excess - but I thought shots were mostly progesterone, like Depo Provera? Which shot are you on?
Avatar f tn When i was receiving the depo shot the only thing it made me do was gain weight!! The doctors say that not all women gain weight on it!!
Avatar f tn Which is okay when it is not heavy, but I went on the depo shot because a friend had suggested it to me. She said she experienced bleeding after the shot and was prescribed estrogen for it. She took it for 3 days and her periods and spotting stopped completely. Now, my doctors will not prescribe me anything. My family doctor said he has never heard of this, and my gyno (which is the same doctor who prescribed her the estrogen) keeps saying ignore it.
Avatar f tn progesterone and estrogen. The progesterone is what is causing the irregular and unsightly bleeding. I have to say, going to estrogen only WILL make you go back to having monthly periods. But at least they will be predictable and easier to live with than month long bleeding and heavy and irregular bleeding.
Avatar f tn I am a 15 year old girl who just started the Depo shot in late June. I got my period normal time July 1st but it hasn't gone away it's now August 29th. And my boyfriend think's I should talk to my doctor. Should I?
Avatar n tn has anyone taken the hcg shot and had rising progesterone levels and were still not pregnant? the reason i ask is because i took my day 21 levels and my estrogen was 314 and my prog was 16.2. i took the hcg shot and was told to go back 3 days later to see if my levels increased or decreased and they did increase. is there a good chance i may be pregnant?
655897 tn?1328018445 My estrogen level is over 2000. I am on day 11 of my Gonal F shot and will take at least one more shot tomorrow on day 12. My IUi will probably be on Wednesday. Does this estrogen level seem really high to anyone? For those of you who have gotten hyperstimulated, what was your level close to the time of the trigger shot or IUI? I have to go in again tomorrow for u/s and b/w.
Avatar n tn I have been on the deprovera shot since july 6th. my next shot is due on september 26th. I have had my period for 19 days now. When is it going to stop and is this normal?
Avatar f tn But I have visual migraines that cause me to. E on a low estrogen kind of birth control, so it was that, pill, arm implant, or iud. I did the pill for a while, but I'm not responsible enough to take it daily at the same time.
7677085 tn?1395374075 The patches have estrogen. Also they can become loose and fall off before the week is up and then you aren't protected. I was on the mini-pill. Had been for 2 1/2 years. I had just changed my brand and then 5 months later I got pregnant. Took them every day,no tummy bug, no antibiotics, nothing. They just didn't work. After bubs is born I'm going to be breastfeeding and think I will be getting hubby to use condoms for a while.
Avatar n tn I am 10 days post IVF transfer using donor eggs. 2 days after transfer my estrogen was over 1000. 1 week after it was below 600 and 9 days after it was below 400. I am really stressing. My progesterone has gone up each time. I am taking 2 mg Estradiol 3 times per day and am now on the patches changing them every day. Any ideas? Does this mean I am not pregnant?
Avatar n tn , then i started estrogen on the 9th day (i need to take this bc i usually do not produce much of my own estrogen and the fertility drug that I take stops estrogen production in my bod) After i took the shot and returned home, I saw the doctor and he only saw a small possible follicle, i had blood work to see if I had ovulated and it came back negative on ovulating. Of course I am sad and confused about it.
898000 tn?1242956625 Well I just got my first bloodwork back done yesterday, since my transfer on 5-10-09. I am 4DPT from a 3 day transfer and my estrogen is 532 progesterone 48.5 keep fingers crossed for me and keep me in your prayers! I am praying for ALL you lovely ladies here, lots of baby dust too you!!
Avatar f tn I am positive. They told me they needed to be certain I would ovulate, although I think the reason is they wanted to be sure I would NOT ovulate before the scheduled FET. I had my LH surge on a Monday and they scheduled my FET for Thursday. I believe it was Monday night I took the HCG shot. How does it work when you don't do a trigger shot for FET? How do they know when to do the transfer?
1219499 tn?1410749730 Hi everyone, I am on my 1st round of clomid and I just got my CD12 estradiol (estrogen) results back - they were 751 or 205 in american measurements. Is this ok? What were you results so I can compare.
1572451 tn?1299029389 I went through invitro on Feb. 17. We transferred two embryoes using donor eggs with a day 5 transfer. My blood test is not until Sunday, but I couldn't wait any longer. I bought a hpt and it shows positive. How reliable is it? I'm taking estrace, wearing estrogen patches and getting progesterone shots. Will these cause a false positive?
Avatar n tn Estrogen thickens your lining but it also works like birth controll pills and stops follie development. My RE gives me a shot of estrogen the day of hcg trigger shot. I'm on my second round of IUIs. The first round was when I concieved my son, and I was told my lining was thin. 4.5 sounds pretty thin but I am very sceptible of the whole lining thing. I would have them monitor it for a couple of cyces before I would decide to have surgery. best of luck.
Avatar f tn *estrogen should only be given until the lining is thick enough to build on it's own.
Avatar f tn I actually had trouble with the pill as my lactation (ugh, really NOT cool when you are a single girl with no children . . . LOL) was due to too much estrogen and many pills are estrogen based. So, you'd have to talk to your doctor to see which pill if any would work in the situation of a hormonal imbalance.
Avatar n tn My estrogen was in twice-weekly shots, and when I asked my doctor why they prescribed that I take them Wednesday evening and Sunday evening (clearly not exactly the halfway point in a given week, it was an every third day, every fourth day schedule) I was told there was still residual estrogen from the last shot even by the fourth day. Not so with prometrium, it fades quickly out of your system, they were definite that I had to be pretty much to the hour and minute on those. You're good.
7385294 tn?1412105739 in some cases infertility can last over a year from last shot and long term use is know to cause osteoporosis -iud's like mirena; can be left in for 3-5 years depending on brand but can be removed sooner, con: ???
594914 tn?1245263684 Im not too sure either I know during my lap surgery my doc gave me a estrogen shot which have me extra wet and my breast have become larger and sensitive. So from what I researched I think it boost up ur % to become pregnant. Helps the egg plant in your uterus safer. ...........all from research hopes this helps http://www.babyhopes.com/articles/low-estrogen-levels-can-this-affect-ovulation.
Avatar f tn t handle the estrogen that the shot contains and they need to get on some other form of birth control.
Avatar n tn I did clomid 50mg 5-9 ,ultrasound and hcg and estrogen levels on Wednesday I have two follicles one 30 ang one 26 estrogen level 1450 iui in the morning no trouble in past concieving but 36 years old eggs needed help maturing.whats my chances?
Avatar f tn t heard if its safe or not while breastfeeding though, I would think it is cus its just giving you a dose of estrogen, or whatever it is it does. Lol.
