Title: Check up
Post by: Sheri on June 16, 2022, 12:42:19 PM
Had a check up with gynae. He has ordered all these blood tests  - LFT, bone, lipids,  FSH,FETR,TFTF.
I know what Lft, bone & lipids are but not others.
He said that even though i get anxious during ovulation period, its due to either high or low estrogen & to stay on HRT so it should balance things out.
I'm alittle dubious about balancing out the estrogen part if it is high but willing to listen to him & do as he says for next 2 months.

TFTF...is thyroid blood tests.
