This is such an interesting thread and completely new ideas for me. DG - is your Dr a traditional medico type or more like a homeopath?? I tend to avoid Drs as much as possible except for the necessary stuff.
I'm really interested because I've suspected for some months now that I'm pre-menopausal and some events of the last couple of weeks have made me even more certain! (the really black mood that I was in, plus the obvious reason ) I've had really bad endometriosis since my mid-20s, and I've read elsewhere that that can play havoc with hormone production. Have had several bouts of surgery, but resisted the complete hysteroctemy that some stupid surgeon wanted me to have about 5-6 years ago - mainly because I had read about the risks in relation to hormone production. So have put up with a fair amount of endometriosis pain since then, but look forward to menopause for an end to it all!!
Anyway, it strikes me that this is a good time to make sure that all of that stuff is in balance ...... and I've never really read anything about thyroid etc, so I might make it my mission to read a bit more over the next wee while
thanks for all this info!!
