Mountain Man,
I have a bit of a different, yet related question. My situation is I generally am not anxious at all and I have never suffered with depression. However, I am a shift worker and police officer and at times, will suffer with pretty bad insomnia which does lead to a degree of...
Keeping the same schedule when I'm off is impossible for family reasons. As I'm now almost twenty years into a police career and just got promoted, I can't look for a new job at this point either. However, I think this later shift will only be a few month thing as I'll soon have a bunch of...
Lot of smart guys here, especially in the area of hormones, so I’ll throw this out there:
For anyone who has to pull shift work, what are your compiled best practices for managing it in a healthy way? I specifically work 5 PM to 3 AM 4 days a week. How would you time eating on such a...
Gents,
I couldn't find the answer to this and it left me confused. My most recent bloodwork showed a free T of 94.2 pg/ml. Everything I could find researching this indicates excellent pg/ml levels are 20-25. Obviously, looking at the reference ranges, my lab is using a different type of...
Also, does your wife take supplemental progesterone at all or only testosterone/DHEA/thyroid and what dose of each? Doc wanted to fix progesterone levels first then move on but this doesn't seem to be working.
Thanks for your input, btw.
Last thyroid tests in May were as follows:
TSH:1.19 mlU/L
Free T4: 1.14 ng dl
Free T3: 2.9 pg/ml
Doc said those were all good numbers and I don't know much about thyroid.
As far as bloods being done during her cycle, she has had them at different points and still show similar numbers. She gave birth 5 years ago. No sister and I'll ask her about her mother's experience with perimenopause/menopause.
The cream she is using is progest. Only progesterone. We thought it strange four months of religious usage didn't budge the number. Testosterone needs to be addressed too but doc wanted progesterone leveled off first. Does that make sense?
Greetings all,
Here is my wife's situation and we were looking for some insight (the female hormonal situation completely eludes me ...) She is 36 yoa female, very active, lifts heavy weights regularly and so forth and fairly recently (last few months) started experiencing significant anxiety...
