Menopause weight
So the big study that said HRT caused breast cancer has been vilified. It turns out the data showed 5/1000 got breast cancer while on HRT, and 4/1000 in the control group not on HRT got breast cancer. There were also problems with the design of the study that have also been pointed out.
My wife found endos don’t want to prescribe T3 at all. However, she initially did much better on Armour thyroid than just synthroid. Most doctors don’t really promote natural thyroid because they say the dosing is very inaccurate, but she has found doctors who will prescibe both T3 and T4. Now she takes a small dose of T3 and around 100 mcg of synthroid. It is definitely not “illegal” to prescribe both, but like I said endos are typically old school. She def has leaky gut symptoms, and gluten now inflames her badly. She also needs methylcobalamin and methylfolate supplementation.
We believe so. She has not been officially tested, but a Dr told her she probably has it, and methylcobalamin really helps her. Now when she gets anxious and on edge, I tell her to take her sublingual methylcobalamin, and within 2 days she feels better. The body needs cobalamin to downregulate homocysteine. Too much homocysteine does put one on edge… it is a type of anxiety.
