Avatar f tn No, I was off the cortef for 2 weeks prior to testing. Yes, it shows a normal rhythm, but the morning levels are WAY too low. Optimal cortisol levels for morning should be at the upper end of the range so a person has energy to get out of bed. I have no idea if I'm primary or secondary and I've never had an ACTH test. I refuse to see endos because they have no training in adrenal fatigue.
Avatar f tn No burning on outer area of vagina or on urination. The problem first presented last year when I had problems with trickling urine throughout my day. Not enough to wear "Depends" but enough to notice the smell of urine in my underwear after 4-6hrs. I was seen be a urologist who told me my urethra was too small, preventing me for completely emptying my bladder. A dilation was done in his office. When I went home, I noticed that I was bleeding from my urethra and vagina.
Avatar m tn I have already ovulated last week according to monitor but it keeps telling me to test. When I do test it comes out low fertility. If I am pregnant would estrogen be high enough to be detected as a high value instead of a low value?
Avatar f tn I am a 53 yr old that has had issues with pain during intercourse for quite sometime but didn’t really think too much about it. Then a few months ag I have noticed blood in my urine that would come and go. It would even show up on urinalysis even if I didn’t see it. But yet I did not test positive for UTI. Then recently I noticed I have been urinating through my vagina.
Avatar f tn I am a postmenopausal woman (65 y). I stopped estrogen treatment in January 2013 but have sometimes used local estrogen and lactic acid. I have had problems with my urinary opening, vaginal atrium and vagina. My distal urethra has been swollen, sore and smarting. Today I have slight lower abdominal pain. I have looked at my urine and vaginal samples under a microscope. There are sloughed epithelial sheets in my urine. I think that they have come from the urethral epithelium.
Avatar f tn When urine is left to stand, does cacium in urine take carbonate from air and precipitate as calcium carbonate? If such happens, then the calcium carbonate(?) concretions seen in urine probably have not formed in the urinary tract. When I took another sample, there were sloughed epithelial sheets in the sediment. The sheets were fairly thick, not one-cell thick. Maybe they were from the distal urethra? They cannot be from the labia.
Avatar f tn If you feel you must time ovulation, I would suggest your efforts would be more fruitful using a relatively inexpensive ($35-$40) urine ovulation prediction kit, and start testing on or about cycle day 11. Have intercourse the day the urine test is positive, and the day after. Far more accurate than ferning. The most fertile couples have only a 25% - 30% pregnancy rate each month, so it is far to early for you to be concerned and seek out a doctor.
Avatar m tn My arms and legs are skinny, I have hair on face, breast, belly, I have to wax off, its disgusting. My testosterone is too low and my estrogen, is his typival with pit. Tumor or adrenal, I do have ic, chronic bladder inflamation, infection, leaking urine, urgent to go an nd d I have a lot of pain under my breast at ribcage, my heart goes nuts snd I have blood and white blood c cells in urine.
Avatar m tn and if you doctor is better than mine, see if he/she will test your estrogen levels... At 44, you are like me, we are preparing for that oh so wonderful "change of life...:... If anything, please just keep me posted....
Avatar n tn It is hard to predict. The higher levels of estrogen may promote the midcycle LH surge, which is what urine OPKs look for. If this happens, the surge might come a couple of days earlier. This is called positive feedback. On the other hand, the higher estrogen levels my inhibit LH (this is called negative feedback) delaying the surge. You will need to test for ovulation to find out.
Avatar f tn Hi. I'm 23yrs old and sexually active. I've missed 3 periods now (I never skip periods) and continue to get false reads on urine pregnancy tests. I'm also tired all the time, I've gained weight, I have breast tenderness, and cramping/gas issues. I went to my OBGYN and she also gave me a pregnancy test that was negative. She prescribed estrogen for five days to induce a period and that hasn't worked either. Could I still be pregnant?
Avatar f tn It would be good to know your estrogen and progesterone levels, to ensure your estrogen to progesterone ratio is right. What are you on now? Unfortunately standard Thyroid testing does not indicate Hypothyroidism type 2, which is similar to diabetes 2. The serum levels are fine, yet the thyroid function (in the cells) is low (thyroid resistance) For this you need Free T3, Free T4 AND Reverse T3 Cheers.
Avatar f tn Blood test for DHEA and coritisol, or 24 hour urine or saliva test.
Avatar m tn I took a saliva test to test my Estrogen levels (Estradiol) and I'm confused about the results. I'm sure its just a conversion thing but I can't seem to find any information on it. I have read that a normal Estradiol range for men is between 20 pg/ml and 40 pg/ml, however my numbers look a little different and I'm not sure how to compare.
1284316 tn?1271699130 t need all that iodine, so she had me do the iodine loading test (24 hr urine test). I excreted ALL of it. The doc says I must not be absorbing iodine due to iodine symporter defect. Have any of you dealt with that? (By the way, a breast thermogram last week showed overall estrogen dominance and abnormal vascular pattern on one side. Wondered if defective iodine transport can cause that too. I'll find the right thread in comp medicine and submit that).
941171 tn?1245279859 Within the past month and a half I have had the Halo Breast Pap Test, Mammogram, Ultrasound and Thermogram breast screenings. I also had some lab test done as well, such as Prolactin, thyroid and iodine. Starting with my labs, my prolactin was normal, thyroid was normal but my iodine was awfully low along with an abnormal result of my urine creatinine. I am wondering how my thyroid can be normal but my iodine is really low(abnormal).
Avatar f tn I had a 24 hours urine test done, and a test to check my petuitary glands (which was, they gave me prednisone to take at 11:00pm, and get a blood test the next morning. They said the pituitary gland was fine and no tumors. I don't think they did an estrogen test, I had a hysterectomy when I was 23 and have gone through menopause. That's the only things I know of except for CBC and the regular tests, I do have pre-diabetes and hypothiorodism.
Avatar f tn please do a urine for pregnancy test or serum HCG levels test to rule out any pregnancy due to contraceptive failure. Alternately, you can also use aimstrip urine for pregnancy test which is highly sensitive and can detect pregnancy after 10-12 days of conception. If pregnancy is completely ruled out, then the possibility of hormonal imbalance is high. In that case, it is advisable to wait for three cycles with ortho tricyclen pills.
492921 tn?1321289896 It tests your saliva and not your urine for electrolyte changes when you have LH and Estrogen changes pinpointing your ovulation day. I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this or anyone has any experience and if it really is worth the money. Most the testimonials on the website say they fell pregnant first cycle they used it. I just have a hard time believing testimonial from a company site there always going to be rave reviews.
Avatar n tn i would take a test with your first morning urine, or go to your dr and have them to a blood test to see. good luck!
Avatar m tn Ever since I got my female dog fixed she's had problems with holding her urine. At times it will just come out. She was put on a med. from the Vet. Does anyone know of a generic brand or natural one that will do the same. I can't keep going back paying office visits everytime she needs a new med.
Avatar f tn I am 21 days late now, took 4 urine test and all negative, i went to the doctor since i was feeling little bubbles on my left ovary and have minor pain with cramps. I took a blood test and it also came out negative. Now i just have back pain, it gets strong while im at work, and certain days i have minor cramps. As well little vibrations on my left ovary which i remember feeling when i was pregnant of my first child.
Avatar f tn ve had a negative uti test that turned positive with the second test they do on the same urine sample. I have never heard of having to cath you in order to get a urine sample to test it. But I'm not a doctor so I guess you have to trust what they are telling you. Stinks though. I had a negative test and my doctor went ahead and treated with cipro and it was two days later that they called that the results turned positive over time.
429647 tn?1249753429 my ttumor was tested and it was estrogen positive i am on an estrogen blocker.. how about asking your doc if the tumor was estrogen positive or not.
Avatar f tn I am a menopausal 54 year old woman and I experience vaginal dryness during intercourse. This morning my husband and I had intercourse without lubrication and immediately afterwards I felt the symptoms of a UTI, with a good deal of blood in my urine. It's extremely painful. I don't believe this is a bacterial infection because of the sudden symptoms.
Avatar n tn I pointed out that lots of medication comes from animal urine, tropical plants, etc.. She will not do any other testing as far as the thyroid is concerned. She does not see a purpose for all the other test. I would like to argue the point according to what I have read in your replies to other people who write into the forum but I do not believe I will change my endo's mind. I was refered to her by my internist when he got the results of the TSH and T4.
