Avatar f tn I recently had an Estradial test done and they found no detectable estrogen. I have been really fatigue, short of breath and having heart palps. I had started using some Bio Identical Estrogen (BiEst) at a very low dose but I really do not feel great. Have a lot of hot flashes and overall do not feel good. Does anyone have any input regarding BiEst and my symptoms. Is not having estrogen bad? They tell me it is.

Avatar n tn “Good Estrogens” (2-hydroxy) help maintain healthy levels of the catecholamine hormones (epinephrine and nor-epinephrine) that specifically stimulate enzymes in fat cells to release stored fat for energy.11 When given over a period of months in animal studies, 2-hydroxy estrogen prevented obesity and the Metabolic Syndrome. Research with absorbable DIM has shown that supplementation before exercise results in greater lipolysis in the hours following exercise.
Avatar f tn so if i had a ystectomy at 39 and took hormones for years and then stopped and now back on them at 50 wii it help me with dryness,sweats,energy,sex life...i think its making me feel tired and giving me dierehha..
Avatar n tn Then with that --- levels of progesterone and testosterone are unbalanced with the amount of estrogen and cortisol building. So now instead of a sluggish thyroid disorder holding you back - Almost your whole endocrine system is out of whack. Then insulin falls and spikes then organs start to be harmed. Symptoms can alert a person of these changes happening.
695036 tn?1228405969 Caffeine increases the amount of acid in the body and interferes with the acid-base balance thus causing the body to produce more Estrogen than Progesterone. It's not only coffee ... tea, high energy drinks and chocolate are also caffeine rich. Most regular soda today is caffeine free.
Avatar f tn I had that prior to RAI when on antithyroid meds and when Hypo. I had to laugh when I saw yr posting (sorry) but it reminded me of my partner and me as he said ..."Deb, The playgrounds closed...whats happening?" lol. I then went to the Doc who prescribed me Estrogen Pessaries to use for 2 weeks straight (no sex) and everything all came back to normal. I would say your Estrogen is low. Also ...no-one feels like a romp in the hay when you are Hypo...

Avatar f tn My t3 and t4 and growth hormone are low all steming pituitary but the dr say no prob. Vitamin d low and estrogen and progestorone low. (complete hysterectomy) What exactly makes you think adrenal? Im learning. I will definitely go to websites you suggested.
Avatar f tn This same day, I started bio-identical hormone therapy in the form of estrogen and testosterone pellets. The blood tests also revealed I was hypothyroid. The Dr prescribed Armour thyroid, 1gr per day. I started gaining weight immediately. The first month after starting BRT, I gained 8 lbs. I was also extremely tired. I had another hormone blood panel done and it revealed I was still low in estrogen. The Dr inserted an estrogen “booster” pellet at this time.
Avatar f tn I would try a period of time taking nothing, then a period of time taking just estrogen, and then a period of time with progesterone not estrogen. I think that standard HRT mimics the body's usual estrogen and progesterone (something like a small estrogen dose most of the month and a progesterone dose for 12 days) but every doc will have a different take.
Avatar m tn Make sure that you check your estrogen levels and ensure your body isn't converting the testosterone into estrogen. After a long period of use (3yrs) this happened to my spouse and it threw him into a severe case of andropause (male menopause) with horrible side effects. We tried every doc on our HMO ands finally had to pay cash and go to a private doc who specializes in male hormone therepy.
110491 tn?1274481937 In women without ovaries, all testosterone and estrogen requires the precursor androstenedione; this precursor is synthesized by the adrenal cortex. This is why even post-menopausal women have some estrogen and testosterone. I don't have much of the first one and none of the other.

Avatar m tn Hello, I am becoming very concerned for my girlfriend who is currently on a Low Estrogen birth control pill. Her libido is practically non existent, and she also gets dry and sore when we actually do have sex and finds it very difficult to reach orgasm. I am fairly confident it is the birth control (and possibly her other medications) causing these problems.

Avatar f tn I was put on Liothyronine (generic to cytomel) a week ago and starting off at 12.5 mg at this time. I had a surge of energy for the first 2-3 days ........now I am feeling like I was beforehand. I'm suppose to be taking this dosage for 2 weeks, but I'm going to call the doctor's office to see if I can go ahead and take the 25 mg. Has anyone had experience with these meds .... wondering if there is any difference between the cytomel and the generic Liothyronine?
Avatar n tn I take self administered testosterone injections every two weeks.Makes me have more energy,libido, and motivation. The only negative side effect for me is that an excess of testosterone will raise the estrogen levels. If I take a small amount of arimidiex-no problems. Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn Menopause is often thought of as a time of declining estrogen, but it is actually common for women to experience surges of abnormally high estrogen levels in the menopausal years, as well as earlier in life. This misconception has led many millions of women to engage in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) to restore lost” estrogen, hoping to address the above list of conditions. This additional estrogen may only worsen the problem and even set the stage for the development of deadly disease.
