Avatar f tn my doctor suggested we lower the dose to the .375 to see if it will help! How long will it be before I see the weight come off?
7649183 tn?1393014236 I have been prescribed Oestrodose 0.06% with 0.75mg estradiol per day. But how much is this effectively in nominal delivery per day? Like you, I want to use the lowest dose possible.
Avatar f tn https://www.healthline.com/health/lower-abdominal-pain-during-sex#in-males I think you should see your doctor. One common cause is prostatitis. This sits just below the bladder but can have the symptom of lower abdominal and back pain (probably where you think your kidneys are). Anything else going on to add to the symptoms. Get checked by your doctor and let everyone here know what they say, I'll be interested.
Avatar f tn 5mg Estradiol it fell even lower to 27pg/ml as per my labs last week. They want to increase me to 1mg Estradiol now. I do know Estradiol is not static so these are snapshots. I did start having periods again for 4 months this year so my body isn't done yet. So my thyroid seems to have gotten worse with (likely) diminishing Estradiol production. Unless perhaps I am having "bursts" of estradiol? Ugh. This is all so interconnected and troublesome to sort out.
Avatar n tn Your estrogen does continue to increase during the first part of your cycle and hits a peak right before ovulation. The estrogen is needed to help build the lining and it also helps improve the cervical mucus. I'm not sure how much of an impact a low level has on day 3, as the levels are generally much lower then anyway. I guess it all depends on how much it increases as you get closer to ovulation. Good luck to you!
Avatar m tn There are a lot of tests that can be run - there are many forms of testosterone - bioavailable testosterone is the best test as it runs all of them - plus you need to run estradiol (men have estrogen too), dhea sulfate (a precursor hormone that becomes either T or E), and sex binding hormone to see how much is in your tissues. For the HypoP - an ionized calcium and vitamin D would be good. GPs are not good with endocrine testing - you need a good endo - get copies of your testing.
Avatar f tn How do I tell what is surgical menopause and what is a reaction to the patch/ Cream bioidentical estradiol? How do I tell what a hot flash is versus when I have a 99 degree temp? I have tried every dosage down to .375 and still cant handle it..tried .1 for a week felt like I was going to have a stroke. .5 totally unbearable. What can I do??? I feel I am too young to not have replacement and yet replacement feels like its hurting my body.
Avatar n tn Are there anything I can read about the aging process and profile change of the Day 3 tests? Would the high Estradiol level at Day3 indicate a difficult response for IVF? I also read from some other source that Chinese Herbal medical has some effect on the hormone level. Specifically, I saw graphs of elevated Estrogen and decreased FSH profile after some treatment of herbal medication, but the graphs did not give more detailed info on test conditions.

Avatar f tn Interpreting day 3 FSH blood test results - what are normal FSH levels? In our fertility center we currently use an assay made by DPC that is run on an Immulite machine. We consider normal FSH level to be anything less than 9. As levels go above 9 we often see a reduction in response to ovarian stimulating drugs - as described in the table below. If your FSH levels were run using a different assay, you can not compare your results to those shown below with confidence.
Avatar n tn Truth of the matter is I have never checked an estradiol level in an asymptomatic male (what is the point?) so am just doing my best to give you a logical answer. Good luck!
Avatar n tn how many carbs should I intake daily to raise my ft3 levels back to normal?
Avatar n tn Hi, Scientist say that it is healthy for males to masturbate. They reccommend that males between the age(s) of 24-44 try this at least once a week in order to help eliviate symptoms that might contribute to prostate cancer. As for the wet dreams, You might want to stop masturbating as frequently, maybe this will help. Smiles.
Avatar n tn That being said, you are 41 and therefore the chances of getting pregnant are lower. If you are interested in having another baby I would immediately stop breast feeding and try to get pregnant. If there is no success after 3 months I would do see a Reproductive Endocrinologist and Infertility specialist who specializes in infertility.
Avatar m tn Gynecomastia is the development of abnormally large mammary glands in males resulting in breast enlargement. the breast development shrinks or disappears within a couple of years In adolescent boys the condition is often a source of distress. The causes of common gynecomastia remain uncertain, although it has generally been attributed to an imbalance of sex hormones or the tissue responsiveness to them. Imaging by X-rays or ultrasound is needed to confirm the diagnosis.
Avatar f tn You are woefully low in Estradiol, which is the lab result I understand completely. I am on my way to work, but try to go to Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet's website where there are Radio Archives and other information. After reading my posts, you'll see why, in my opinion, her work is very helpful.
Avatar n tn I have a history of having them in the genital area, and I think they spread to the anal area. I think this may have happened by touching the infected area and then touching other areas of my body.
Avatar f tn How long after a confirmed pregnancy are you suppose to continue taking Estradiol? Just read on the internet that it can cause birth defects and I can't reach my doctor to confirm this.
Avatar n tn According to this website https://www.menopause.org/for-women/menopauseflashes/menopause-symptoms-and-treatments/how-do-i-know-when-i'm-in-menopause- an FSH consistently over 30 means you are in menopause. With your FSH so high I would think that you are in menopause even if you only had the one test. If you are on any hormones those can skew the tests but I would think they'd show a lower FSH than without hormones.
