1112541 tn?1286311213 There are definitely natural / herbal products that really do work for many of us. I started using an herbal product called Wisdom Menopause Formula last winter when I couldn't handle the side effects that Premarin was causing me, and it has worked wonders - way better than I expected. I know at least six other women who are taking it, and I haven't heard anything but praise.
Avatar f tn ve never heard of that particular product, but I can tell you from experience that some natural/herbal products really do work - at least for many of us. I found my personal oasis in an herbal liquid called Wisdom Menopause Formula, which really came to my rescue when I had to quit HRT last winter due to the side effects from the hormones.

Avatar f tn The gynecomastia leads to body disturbances for males especially at a young age. This can be causing a big part of the depression. Also talk to the health care provider about weight and see if this could have something to do about the low testosterone levels.
Avatar m tn Ovariectomy and estrogen supplementation were used to evaluate the effect of estrogen on HBV titers in transgenic mice with replicating HBV in hepatocytes. The effect of estrogen signaling on transcription of HBV genes, and the mechanisms of regulation, were studied in HepG2 cells. RESULTS: HBV titers increased in female mice after ovariectomy and decreased in male mice supplemented with estrogen. Hepatic expression of estrogen receptor (ER)? was increased by estrogen exposure.

Avatar m tn Baby boys were talked about being born with holes in their tiny scrotums from the estrogen the soy floods the body with who had to undergo immediate surgery upon birth, as this is a terrible birth defect for males and can cause serious harm to the health if not fixed immediately.
1118139 tn?1311720678 I was tired of taking harsh fertility drugs too and started on fertilityblend for women and was on that for nearly 6 months and needless to say that didn't work for me. I finally was told by a friend of mine to give vitex a try and I've been on it for a month which it could take up to 3 months to work. But since I have endo it started giving me really bad cramps again and was advised to stop due to the estrogen. So I have to go back to another fertility drug.
Avatar n tn The concern I have again is could using estrogen cream bring on bleeding. My gynaecologist said that if I have further bleeding (after none for over 7 months now) she will have to do another hysteroscopy. Of course I am trying to avoid that situation. My main symptoms for treatment are anxiety and vaginal dryness. I was wondering if anybody has had a similar condition/suggestion and whether they found the estrogen cream was okay for them.
Avatar m tn Overall, males had higher progression rates at 66% versus 41% for women. However, for those under the age of 50, fibrosis progression was 51% for males versus 11% for females. Over age 50, the rate jumps to 77% for males versus 61% for females. These data show a strong relationship between gender and fibrosis progression. The researchers surmise that estrogen may have a protective benefit for younger women with HCV. They recommend the use of estrogen replacement therapy for menopausal women.
7843530 tn?1395009668 I was expecting to hear that I had too much estrogen, not too much testosterone! Are there herbal supplements or vitamins that encourage a decrease in testosterone? I don't have insurance so beyond what the walk-in clinic already told me, I'm kind of on my own in terms of trying to fix this. I'd appreciate any further feedback--I'm really tired of skipping periods for no apparent reason!
Avatar f tn suffer all the usual symptoms andwas advised to try herbal remedies I knew these had proved very succesfull for many people but I am desperate now for something to work.

Avatar n tn Testosterone is very important for females as well as males. Testosterone also converts into estrogen. All three primacy sex hormones all interact with one another and having them in the proper balance at the proper time is very important and complex. Do you have any menstrual cycle irregularities? Can you also tell us your diet and the level of exercise you do? Are you an "extreme" athlete of any sort?
Avatar f tn I am recovering from a hysterctomy due to uterine cancer. My oncologist said he will wait a YEAR to start hormone treatment. I told him I only want to be put on bioidentical therapy. He said "no estrogen is a good estrogen" so I am confused. I feel a year is much too long to wait. I have hot flashes all day. am jumpy and nervous and feel like I weigh 1000 pounds. What should I do now? I am 74 and only have social security and my medical insurance.
Avatar n tn I have been reading about the types cause cancer for men are rare, and the virus mostly will resolved by its own within 2 years for most of infected people, and it turns to cancer for people who have weak immunity system and smoke a lot, knowing that the last exposure was 6 months ago or more, and i have not had any symptoms such as warts or anything. My concern is about the virus being undetected and turns to cancer suddenly after many years.
1325193 tn?1450127436 I appreciate the advice. I have found that most herbal supplements don't work for me. The so,called natural approach is really a load of garbage. No offense if that is your thing, i have tried every herbal supplement out there and they just don't work. My doc said as low as my t is, I need something that will work fast. I am,still hoping this cures my anxiety.

Avatar m tn do you happen to know which hereditary conditions are responsible for elevated estrogen?also, can excess adipose tissue can cause such problem?i'm not that fat.it's the distribution of my fat that i'm complaining about...also if that was the case, all overweight people would have elevated estrogen!
Avatar m tn Hello, It would have been really helpful if you had shared details about your symptoms. What was the reason for getting these tests done? Elevated FSH and LH values help to distinguish primary testicular failure from secondary testicular failure which is hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.Your values are slightly above the normal range. It is best to consult your doctor who had advised these tests and discuss your test results. It is very important to clinically correlate these test results.
