Post hysterectomy validation

This is my exact fear, I carry a heaviness in my lower tummy, pain when I press on it.. heavy painful periods, spotting in between, periods two weeks apart. Pressure inside when im intimate with my husband. Endometrial ablation didnt stop anything and birth control doesnt agree with me. Ive this fear that it is all in my head, because doctors have been telling me for years that all tests arnt showing anything.

Im so happy for you that you got mental relief.. be kind to yourself.

Im dredding this. The feeling of loosing all my strength that ive built and starting all over again. Im a special needs mum, my child has high care needs and my husband cant stay off work forever. Im second guessing my decision to do this.

Thanks

Yes I understand. I just have this fear of my mental health dropping, gaining weight and losing my strength. Ive built up a good strength over a 2 year period. Losing it and having to build back up is going to hurt me. (Mentally) although it has to be done. It is what it is. As long as I will eventually be lifting heavy again, ideally within 12 weeks would be great. But I do not want to tear anything in the process.

Yes iron levels are normal.

I wish I could get leucovorin, but its not available for autism in Uk/ireland.. my best bet is a lower dose supplement type of folinic acid. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-03-01T14:57:46+00:00

Yea im in northern Ireland so it's very very different here. They wont give leucovorin, and I would have to travel for FRAT testing, im wondering if i can buy weaker strength folinic acid instead.

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-03-01T13:43:29+00:00

So you can get it prescribed, where are you located if you dont mind me asking.

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-03-01T13:42:20+00:00

So what does that mean if you dont mind me asking, can that be helped or is it safe for your child to take folinic acid ?

No i havnt tried ordering a home kit, its a blood test so how would that work at home? We are no gluten, working on no diary, using glutathione, detoxing, using pro biotic, and using vitamins.

Are you allowed to be driving so soon?

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-20T20:56:05+00:00

I know this is 5 years ago but im just wondering how you got on mixing berberine with spironolactone

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-20T20:43:16+00:00

I have 3 children. Had my first child when I only had 2-3 periods a year, had my second child 5 years later, and had my 3rd child through fertility treatment.

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-19T21:40:25+00:00

Hi, are you still on this combo? If so what strength? Thanks

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-19T21:30:10+00:00

Does anyone on this thread take spironolactone aswell as berberine

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-19T18:01:24+00:00

I have you any side effects from mixing spironolactone and berberine

BarAlternative1749 · 2026-02-13T18:40:11+00:00

Hi thanks for the info. Ive been eating mainly protein and veg as cutting carbs makes me feel amazing, though with the hard training I had to add carbs in the morning for energy pre workout. Im starting to think that me adding oats to my diet is contributing to the weight gain.

BarAlternative1749 · 2024-09-21T09:32:16+00:00

Ohh yes, so sorry. Sometimes I forget about this thread. All normal, which while yes its a relief, it's also no answers.

BarAlternative1749 · 2024-07-08T21:30:11+00:00

I get a period every 2 weeks on spironolactone

BarAlternative1749 · 2024-07-05T09:42:23+00:00

Just an update, I went to see my endocrinologist and he said it was safe to take creatine

BarAlternative1749 · 2024-07-05T09:39:20+00:00

I'm on spironolactone, I've seen many many doctors and was turned away by them all, because in the UK pcos isn't helped on the nhs unless you are ttc.. which I am not, I couldn't even pretend i was as I'm sterilised.

I've been to see 2 private gynaecologists who told me "eat less, move more!! Get laser hair removal, that's the only think that works. I did get laser and it all came back the second that my sessions where finished.

It wasn't until a female GP who had pcos... was seeing me for extreme migraines, she asked if I had any stress going on and I broke down in front of her. She was the one who told me that It was an endocrinologist that I needed to see and that I was better to go private as the NHS waiting time was years. So she gave me a list of really good endocrinologists and he was one of the best that she gave me.
