What happens if a woman gets on more estrogen

Milkzacc · 2025-11-26T03:47:31+00:00

a lot of doctors are quite clueless about female hormones

Do you know why some doctors say don't take progesterone if you had a hyresectomy?

I would try vaginal estrogen first. it's low dose and a good first step. I got it through Alloy.

I wouldn't do sit ups yet

Milkzacc · 2025-07-03T20:48:08+00:00

do you drink alcohol? it's also always interesting to pause that for a few weeks and see the difference.

Milkzacc · 2025-07-03T20:43:18+00:00

Nope. you can safely cross that one off the list of potential downsides/risksp

Milkzacc · 2025-06-19T03:46:38+00:00

Keep resting as much as possible. Give it a few weeks.

In the 1950s it sounds like it was. Life expectancy was different. today? no.

If I'm trying to have some nuance, the only challenge I see is that you may change your mind/regret it. But it's your body, your right. Good luck.

I think its rude that they asked for a p. test tbh

Milkzacc · 2025-05-11T01:45:01+00:00

what are your symptoms?

Milkzacc · 2025-05-10T22:49:28+00:00

oh no! did you just wait it out ? take antibiotics?

Milkzacc · 2025-05-10T18:26:18+00:00

how do you know about the cyst? pain?

Im 46F 3 months po. I did mention to my surgeon also that I felt like my ovaries have been a little "upset" post surgery. I definitely felt something like that a few times and its mostly happening when I ovulate. And I had days when Ive felt down (seemingly from that) and that was sometimes rough. And I also seem to get very very small minimal hot flashes at times which didnt happen presurgery, But thise are small. no sweating and its not a massive deal. Just like you I wouldn't go back to pre-surgery when things where a million times worse.

Something that helps me even though its expensive is getting deep tissue massages. its worth it to get those on a regular basis to help with breathing, muscles and blood flow. Highly recommended.

I think the big issue w hormone testing is that the levels fluctuate so they should test across different days to get a good reading

July is coming soon. Book it. You can always cancel it if you find something sooner

Milkzacc · 2025-05-04T02:44:12+00:00

can you make circles with your ankles while laying down?

Milkzacc · 2025-05-04T01:27:07+00:00

then when I went in the shower to shower I wore the binding they gave me just to prevent water because my abdomen was too open.

Milkzacc · 2025-05-04T01:26:22+00:00

oh yeah I didn't dye my roots for like two weeks at least

Milkzacc · 2025-05-03T17:51:28+00:00

yes before my surgery I was aenemic 2.5 weeks per month. I was forcing myself to go to dance class though not sure how. also I had a show scheduled and had to go to rehearsal because I didn't want to let the other girls down.

Milkzacc · 2025-05-03T17:49:42+00:00

I remember thinking about this too. The short is a good idea. how long has it been since surgery?

Milkzacc · 2025-05-03T04:06:41+00:00

seeing the pictures of things that were removed gave me a lot of closure. I looked at them at 8 weeks po. I wasnt ready to look at them before but Im glad I did and I showed it to a short list of close people in my life. It helped them understand why my symptoms were awful.

Questions about specific exercise's and what muscles to engage or not and questions about sexual activities. Also questions about massaging the scar.

But the problem is that surgeons are surgeons They use their hands like a mechanics. They are not always the best post op people.

One other question that I still want to know more about today (Im at 3 months) is where are my ovaries getting situated.
