synthroid and menstruation

First, it began with pelvic pain and lead to menstrual irregularity (my menstruation would not stop for 5 months). I was put on BCP - Ortho-Tri - and it stopped my 24/7 menstruation more or less, but not the pelvic pain. Plus, BCP makes my moods highly irregular and my hair to fall out in chunks. I got off BCP after 3 months of crazy side effects and my hair loss/mood swings/bloat went away. But my menstruation got crazy again. I was then put on Synthroid (0.25 at first, then up to 0.

I already struggle with that since Synthroid triggered it (no, never had hair loss before Synthroid), and I also have heat intolerance, which I understand T3 can aggravate. So what to do next?

On the succeeding years after that I began to manifest some of the symptoms of hypothyroidism like irregular menstruation (only twice a year), weight gain, inability to lose weight (even when I took taekwondo classes), coldness in extremities, fatigue, and too slow metabolism. I was thinking of taking synthroid or a hypothyroidism medicine without prescription. Is it ok?

Wow that somehow got posted while I was still typing. Sorry guys. I was asking whether there was a correlation between dehydration and palpitations. I've noticed that when I haven't had enough water to drink during the day, around 3pm-4pm, I start getting palps (100-106/minute), and they subside after I drink about half a litre/full litre of water. I have also noticed that my palps are slightly worse on my period.

I had the same affects you mention while on Synthroid and now have been off it for about 10 days and feeling so much better, my anxiety is considerably reduced, I was on 50mcg also but it was enough to mess me up in 3 months! Eltroxin has changed its formula and more people are suffering side effects. Have you heard of Armor? Apparantly that is supposed to be better. Keep us posted.

Yes, I am aware of the conversion of T4 to T3. I too am on Synthroid and FINALLY convinced my GP that I needed direct T3 replacement; with it came noticeable positive changes (a true believer in optimal thyroid function). Unfortunately the doctors seem stuck on using TSH values as their guide when it comes to measuring success in treatment of her problem. In this lab test her TSH ranges for the lab are .64-6.27 ulU/ml and her Free Thyroxine was .36 with lab ranges .65-152 ng/dl.

It talks about Reflux Menstruation. I have ovarian cysts that rupture every month, and endo. The endo was either caused from my cysts rupturing or when i had my c-section. If u can find the book, i highly recommend getting it and reading it. It has helped me understand the Endo alot.

I was placed on Synthroid 50 mcg and stayed on that dosage despite having recurring symptoms of hypothyroidism and extreme fatigue with anxiety and depression. Almost 9 years later I went to an endocrinologist after my physician dismissed my symptoms as stress related and refused to modify my thyroid dosage because my TSH was normal around 5. The endocrinologist performed an ultrasound and found one large nodule and a smaller one nearby. The larger nodule was biopsied by FNA.

i then went to a demotologist for my skin and he prescribed a Minerva-35 and im on my 36 day and have not menstruated. could this be a problem. because i dont know whether those Minerva-35 pill make you not go on the cycles. would you please brief me on this issue.i dont have any symptoms of pregnency and i had a left and right pain by my abdorminal.

Her doctor advised her that aluminum based products do not work with Hashimoto’s.. and yes, my daughter’s underarm odor is considerably worse under stress and during menstruation.

It seems worse before/during menstruation, and it drives me insane and I literally make myself bleed...I use Cerave lotion, but maybe I need to kick it up a notch and apply more often. Thanks to all for the input!

s - with low/normal TSH and several nodules, only one looking suspicious on the left side. He put me on 25mg of Synthroid for two weeks, and only experienced flushing, lethargy and some palpatation issues. At two weeks, I was to bump up to 50mg - and within three days, my lymph nodes swelled, my goiter became very painful, daily headaches and low grade fever began. I've been on 50mg for six weeks now, and my fevers have spiked up to 101, but are normally staying steady around 99.8.

What are your current FT3, FT4, TSH levels? Any other symptoms, ear ringing, rapid heart rate, shaky hands? I haven't check your profile to see if you are female, but are you on your period? I had just the opposite problem. I went from 75 mcg Synthroid to 88 and got the headaches and hyper symptoms. Now I'm on 75 Synthroid and 5 mcg Cytomel and back to dragging my feet hypo feeling. I also believe that during menstruation, I get some hyper symptoms.

I am 19 years of age and this type of menstruation cycle has never happend to me before. Actually earlier this year it has been bad to the point that I could not sleep at night because of the pain. Is your daughter doing better? My guess is it has to do with insulin shots especially when injected through the stomach.

Avoid magnesium carbonate, sulfate, gluconate, and oxide. They are poorly absorbed (and the cheapest and most common forms found in supplements). Side effects from too much magnesium include diarrhea, which can be avoided if you switch to magnesium glycinate. Most minerals are best taken as a team with other minerals in a multi-mineral formula. Taking a hot bath with Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) is a good way to absorb and get much needed magnesium.

My doc then switched me to Levoxyl 125 mcg, had bad reactions 2 1/2 mos later--hyperthyroid type symptoms. Back on Synthroid at 50 mcg and still waiting for my breathing to get totally better, but starting to feel swelling of the thyroid (slightly) on the right side. Endo says that the breathing can't be related, but research says it is. She is thinking of taking me off synthroid to see if symptoms go away. Any suggestions or experience?

She may have touched my pre ejaculate and then touched and fingered her vagina. I did urinate before our playing off. And i did masturbate 1day before(tuesday. We did thursday) i am afraid i might have made her pregnant by my pre ejaculate.

Absolutely! It can interfere with ovulation and menstruation in a woman and it affects sperm count and motility in a man.

I went into the bathroom and found that there was about a quarter teaspoon of blood on my scrotum and at the base of my penis. I immediately washed myself completely as best I could. I did not notice any cuts or breaks in the skin in the entire area, but I wasn’t using a magnifying glass either. Right now I am having symptoms similar to ARS, which include swollen tonsils (one tonsil in particular is painful), fatigue, body aches, and a rash over most of my body. The rash itches slightly.

The way my blister popped was using a Q-tip and just going over the blister gently and it just throbbed all night and I knew then the fluid was out. I would just say a pain killer for now. Do you have any Valtrex or other medication for a fast recovery?

I have tried to get rid of my Menstruation for a couple of months and then once I have my period I get my Uti back. During my Menstruation I take a shower and rinse 3 times a day and change my kotex every 2 hours - I only use the pure cotton kotex pads. I don't use tampons. I am drinking plenty of fluids. I only drink alcohol moderately and 1 cup of coffee a day. I do see a urologist. I have been all of the antibiotics for uti's and I am wondering what I am doing wrong?

i did a myomectomy ten month ago and since then my mentruation has been scanty, for the first three months i did not see the menses at all, then when it came it was just in drops of very dark thick stains and after that it stopped and the pregnancy test is negative; is it as a result of the surgery? i wish to get pregnant what do i do?
