Oh Sheri, well done! That’s a big thing for you to feel strong enough to do. I’m so pleased for you. I hope your husband is able to support you some way.

Gosh Sheri, I’m so very pleased for you. That is a massive step forward, not just a little one!

Your hubby had noticed your physical symptoms, that’s a positive sign. You talked and had a connection, that’s good too.

You reached a crossroads and you decided which way you wanted to go. More crossroads ahead no doubt, but your journey has begun.

All the best and hopefully you’ll keep us updated xx

[Sheri]

I will keep you updated. Tbh, its all thanks to you guys. Not sure i would've done it without your support. I'm pretty sure also i would've stopped taking HRT aswell.
Is it too much information if i say, we made love like old times today? I can't say i enjoyed it as it was still quite painful  - really dry & i can't use lubricants - but i loved the closeness & cuddles after.
Onwards & upwards.

Nope, nothing we say on here is TMI!

Are you following the burning club thread?

Nitey x

My gynae prescribed it. I'm seeing in Wed.
I do have a sore throat aswell. This started Wed aft.
I keep looking up thyroid problems now from having too much estrogen.
Is this a thing that happens on HRT?

Hello - no not transdermal. In fact some women with hypothyroidism seem to find thyroid levels improve on body identical transdermal hrt. (The utrogestan can apparently help. )

Oral hrt can affect thyroid in some women. The combined oral pill kicked it off in me when I was young.

It’s usually autoimmune though so there would be a genetic predisposition- pregnancy, post partum and meno are common times for thyroid to start going wrong.

Sorry I didn’t see the rest of your messages - I do hope things settle for you.

My breasts were v sore at first. You could try taking magnesium and calcium tablets - it felt similar to when periods return when breastfeeding and this is known to help.

Some women find they need to go up oestrogen dowse more gradually too.

I hope it gets better soon x
