Binding oestrogen??
« on: September 10, 2024, 09:40:58 AM »

Hi all
So I hope this isn't too complicated of a question......but I've just been on the phone with gp to reduce my duloxetine antidepressant because all I've done in 3 mo ths is cry.

She mentioned my patch ....and said everything seems OK there yiu e had 3 blood tests in 4 weeks to check it -
Oestrogen was 479, then 291 the 492.
She said they are good results- as I'm a noticed yiu ladies agree?
Plus she said something like "unless your oestrogen receptos are not binding "
Because of all my crying.
I asked how woukd I know? She said there's no test?
anyone help me out here? Just  bit concerned
Just to say I don't get any night sweats so patch must be ok?
