    Thank you

    For the ice tea, found a bunch online but all seem to have sugar and syrup that’s why I got confused and resisted following that. I guess not sweet is OK.

    When I do remember I think “would you feed this to your future child” – and then I think no. And IF it’s a yes then it’s within moderation so I don’t approach it like it’s 100% OK but like an occasional thing

    I’ve been thinking of wearing the glucose monitor since I am considered pre and have insulin resistance. Any thoughts on brands – easiest most convenient ones?

    Hello Daniel and Bernadette:”,

    Thanks so much for sharing the information its so useful and i’m sure extremely useful to help me understand my health better.

    @Bernadette, thanks i’ll through the videos and look into the supplement. I think you’re 100% correct about stomach acid – do you think ACV before meals will help? I take it on and off – if uou tell me it will be helpful i’ll make sure to have it religiously. About b12 – yes i was also diagnosed with pernicious anemia and been on b12 supplements – i was looking for a good brand and thanks for recommendation.

    @Daniel – i’ll share fT3 results once i have it. My appointment is moved to next week. I’ll check on the DUTCH test too.

    WRT my symptoms – yes experiencing every single symptom you mentioned – i was also always cold – however since i left my HRT i’m feeling more hot than cold (little erratic)

    I’m hoping reverse T3 and Ft3 if diagnosed have solutions to make it better?

    For iron supplement because i’m thalesemia minor i’m always struggling – however SiderAl Forte seems to be effective, i’ll check on liquod supplement too thanks.

    I have not had any operation on my gut. You are right about traveling I always feel weird and I experience weight gain and other symptoms specially after traveling, i thought its something to do with flight. Also eggs when I eat in india doesnt cause any issue, and when I have eggs in dubai i get stomach burning.

    Noted on fasting insulin.

    Thanks so much for your help once again.

    1. Is PCOS still present? Are you still menstruating? 

    PCOS has not been tested for a while, however Endo did prescribe metformin because he said being overweight i’m by default insulin resistant – I however am not taking metformin at the moment (i used to but stoped an year ago).

    No, no periods naturally, only with HRT I’d get my periods.

    2. Has anyone ever checked your fasting glucose, HbA1C and fasting insulin levels?

    HbA1C is normal – report attached. Fasting test no, but i can run it tomorrow morning at home.

    3. Do you have any gut related symptoms like bloating, gas, constipation, IBS, etc? 

    I do feel all the symptoms mentioned above – its very radical – some days more intense than others.

    4. Do you have hormone test results you can attach/share? Was sex hormone binding globulin ever measured?

    I have attached my latest detailed report, i’m not sure about the tests you mentioned. I’m meeting my endo tomorrow at 10.30 am should I mention these tests?

    5. Briefly describe your diet. Do you consume enough protein?

    Protein in my diet may not be enough – i’m primarily vegetarian, I can have chicken and fish (i get aversions every now and then) and therefore i’m not able to consume enough protein consistently. I love eggs but in Dubai it gives my stomach burning (in india however i can have eggs without an issue – strange but true, dont know why though)

    6. Rate your overall stress level
    I want to say high – i’m into my own business and personally as well – more than anything my increasing weight is causing most stress.

    7. What are your top 5 symptom complaints currently?

    Weight-gain, headache, overall feeling unwell, lethargic, bloating

    Currently on following meds –

    Euthyrox – 75iu

    Progyluton -last tab taken on 25th oct (got scanty period)

    Then started with Oophorium30 (homeopathic estrogen) taking this 2 times a day.

    Sideral Forte (been but careless with this one) please i’m thallesimea minor as well)

    Please find reports attached.

    I was initially put on HRT for irregular periods because of PCOS however later on I was diagnosed with very low AMH. And I had all the menopausal symptoms. I was prescribed oral – Progyluton and then switched to Yaz. I think it was prescribed as hormone replacement as my body wasn’t producing these? And that was still at very young age?

  • Hello, for 3 days i took
    D-mannose 2 capsules, 2 x daily
    Uva Ursi 4 capsules, 3 x daily

  • Hello Bernadette,
