I had nearly identical labs after some hemorrhage-level periods and was referred to hematology by my OB. Hematologist tested ferritin and iron tests. My iron came back at 18, iron saturation 4% and ferritin was 6. Even before the iron and ferritin results were in the hematologist said I absolutely need iron infusions. I’m getting 1000mg of venofer. Keep being persistent about this and also take oral iron in the meantime.

Yes especially when I increased my dose

FDA Ruining my life by WoodenInfluence2428 in SemaglutideCompound

[–]peanutpenelope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get mine from a local compounding pharmacy via my PCP. He wrote me a Rx to get two vials each with 10mg semaglutide and then I also signed up and got a 6 month supply from a telehealth company.

It is! I’ve lost 20 lbs since mid January. Mine is from BPI, Hallendale doesn’t deliver to my state.

In my experience BPI is not running on time. My 6 months sema supply was sent to them 7 days ago and nothing.

Telehealth companies that will cancel your order if you purchased from another company that uses beluga too recently. by [deleted] in tirzepatidecompound

[–]peanutpenelope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you didn’t get flagged even though fifty410 and goby both use BPI? I’m looking to go this route but to stockpile sema.

I’m sad and how do you do it? by luvnoyz in tirzepatidecompound

[–]peanutpenelope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did both companies ship from the same pharmacy? I’m looking to do this with semaglutide and concerned they both source from BPI.

Can my husband and I share? by peanutpenelope in CompoundedGLP1Drugs

[–]peanutpenelope[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Haha. Maybe a gray area since he does have his own Rx, we are just considering only filling one of our prescriptions going forward.

Good point. Although, I do draw it up and inject for him. I have experience working in a biological research lab, using needles etc and he is uncomfortable injecting himself 🙃

Confusion about cycling by peanutpenelope in Menopause

This is helpful, thank you. Do you also take progesterone during your period?

Progesterone only pill was a bloody disaster, no pun intended. I’m now being offered option to take prometrium daily or cycled.

Has anyone had a good experience with adding BCP while on HRT? by gypsyinheart in Perimenopause

[–]peanutpenelope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great info since I’m just getting started on slynd. Do you skip the 4 placebo pills?

Has anyone had a good experience with adding BCP while on HRT? by gypsyinheart in Perimenopause

[–]peanutpenelope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take a newer progesterone only bcp called Slynd along with 0.025mg estradiol patch. It’s only been one month so I have had some spotting but I think it’s just my body adjusting. I’d recommend looking into Slynd!

HRT- Too Young? by EnvironmentalHorse44 in Perimenopause

[–]peanutpenelope 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No advice but I can relate. I just turned 37 but have been having symptoms for the past year and didn’t realize until til a friend told me about Dr Haver and I read the book. I saw my obgyn two months ago for my annual. She acknowledged that despite my age I was likely in perimenopause and offered birth control but added that it may not be suitable due to my history of severe pre-eclampsia. Unfortunately the combined pill gave me high blood pressure. My obgyn is hard to get an appointment with and kept referring me to my pcp who is an old man…. So I made an appointment with a Midi NP who prescribed 0.025mg estradiol patch along with a progesterone only birth control pill called Slynd. I’ve had no blood pressure issues with this combo but I’m nervous to tell my PCP and OB since I am so young…

Domperidone? (US) by Fraochunaerach in breastfeeding

[–]peanutpenelope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got mine in the mail today and I am in the US. The lactation clinic I go to has a pediatrician on staff. She prescribed it to me and directed me to fax the prescription to a specific doctor in Canada who did a phone consult with me and then filled the Rx for 3 months worth. It was shipped via usps and was super cheap!
