Can anybody speak to using this particular online clinic, especially if they are in perimenopause or menopause and have also lived with endometriosis. Looking for good experiences if it’s worth my time, etc.

Talk to me of your favorite freezer prep meals

Hi everyone, I’m about to have major surgery in two months and I’ve recently just acquired some souper cubes in a whole bunch of different sizes. Costco had a major sale and I kind of went crazy and I love them. Please talk to me of your favorite freezer meals nothing with eggs as I’m allergic.
I’ve already frozen some Indian food that I’ve made but I’m just wondering what other people love to use these for.

Perimenopause, HRT, question about my progesterone

Hello everyone, I am new to this community and this is my first post. I started the estradiol patch at 0.025 last week along with 100 MG of identical progesterone; Prometrium. I’m probably spelling it wrong because I’m using dictation to text. I feel like the progesterone makes me sleepy but also anxious. Does this get better. Yes I’m taking it at night and while it initially will make me sleepy I then am having like panic and anxiety later on in the night that isn’t normal for me.

Hormones are driving me crazy help!

So I’m a 40-year-old female about to have a hysterectomy for endometriosis, yes I know this is not a cure. I’ve got some other things going on as well and it’s been a very long and difficult decision that I’ve had to make. I’m posting because my hormonal symptoms of vaginal dryness, dry skin, lots of joint muscle, and even bone aches and pains are driving me crazy, how does your doctor know whether to put you on estrogen or progesterone. My sleep is definitely disturbed. I’m more anxious because I don’t feel good and because I have a major surgery coming up and I just want to start feeling even a little better. What has worked for all of you.

Talking about hysterectomy with my doctor

So I did a thing, I’m scheduled for surgery to excise remaining endometriosis or new growth, whichever it is, and we originally weren’t going to talk about a hysterectomy, but I sent her a message and asked if we could. Good vibes, positive energies, prayer, candles, whatever you believe in send it my way. These are really hard and challenging conversations. I know a hysterectomy is not a cure, I’ve been an Endo warrior for 20 years at this point, and my periods are not the worst thing, but the hormones shifting, the fact that my uterus is trying to glue itself to my upper rectum again, not so good.

Want to try micro dosing instead of taking my larger doses

Like the title says I would like to try micro dosing, currently I am on .45 of Zepbound every two weeks, but I still struggle with side effects like fatigue, lethargy, muscle and joint pain, and if I’m not careful, nausea and severe diarrhea, that will last for days. i’ve tried inching up my doses to 4.75 and then to five, with no success and more illness, but no weight loss. I was on a study and took reta last year, but found that drug was incredibly strong and I could not tolerate it and so I was dismissed. While this drug is not as terrible, I’m wondering if micro dosing would be a better fit for me than trying to manage these larger doses every two weeks. I have lost 30 pounds but since last September my weight has refused to change and I’m stuck feeling like I’m failing and doing something wrong. Open to thoughts, questions, and suggestions.

So I have some inevitable surgery coming up for endometriosis yet again. I had the thought since I’m struggling with this and some choices I need to make around fertility that maybe I should knit myself a recovery blanket, I was thinking an easy, waffle weave pattern, anybody else do this or am I nuts. my thought process as a mental health therapist is that this gives me something to do instead of just be upset and distraught and in pain about the lack of choice I have as a woman, and it reminds me of the love I have for myself and taking care of myself.
