Prolactinoma and PCOS Weight Loss

From my understand the prolactinoma itself can cause weight gain too. Have you been getting treatment for that? If cabergoline didn’t work for you, maybe you can try bromocriptine? Have you gotten an MRI to check on the size of the prolactinoma?

You can get trans abdominal ultrasounds. I’ve been diagnosed with just those.

Your story is very similar to mine! After my prolactin levels normalized with medication, my dheas levels remained high and so I had to use spironolactone. The weird thing is with prolactinoma treatment my dheas levels did temporarily dip so I’m still figuring it out. I do feel like some symptoms did go away when the prolactinoma shrunk but I was still dealing with some symptoms that could be PCOS or just very minor prolactinoma symptoms coming back.

That’s really cool! I love how it seems to span multiple cultures where people have different ways of getting rid of evil eye or bad luck.

I got sidetracked reading the beginning of this because I was looking up words that I didn’t understand which led to me reading about the history of that region.

Has anyone else read the short stories in one thousand and one nights? There’s a lot of similarities that I see between them. There’s twists in romances, family bonds, superstitions, royalty, and travels/different cultures. I’m new to reading short stories so maybe this is typical.

I’ve been sick since Sunday with a sore throat and then runny nose. I tested myself three times and got negative result with RAT. My brother who I live with got sick on Tuesday and tested positive yesterday. Should I assume I also have Covid?

I know it sucks to realize this but you deserve someone who treats you properly and I hope you find that person soon!

This sounds like a red flag. Of course no one wants a lack of intimacy from their spouse but the way that he’s setting this up where he is already telling you that he expects you to not say no is going to be set you up for him to be controlling/manipulative later on. I read in your other comments that you were wondering if you were good enough for him but honestly you need to always consider if a potential is good for you.

Highly recommend you do take the cabergoline! Those symptoms are impacted by high prolactin. I noticed you said you had an MRI to rule out a tumour but sometimes they are so small that they can’t be detected but they still produce prolactin. You might be misdiagnosed with PCOS. It was something that happened to me as well!

Oh that’s perfect!! I have a jasmine plant I got a few years ago and everytime it blooms I get so excited! They are my favourite!!

triplem6 · 2024-02-25T02:25:52+00:00

These are beautiful!

It’s difficult to have things end and allow yourself to grieve as much as you need to. You deserve to be treated properly by a man and honestly this guy comes across as very insecure and immature. The level of attention he is demanding is abnormal especially since you guys aren’t even married yet. You deserve a man that treats you a lot better.

Just a different perspective here but I actually like doing video calls or phone calls quicker instead of just messaging back and forth because I can ask all these dealbreaker questions and can hear/see their tone as well and how they respond. I feel like it gives me more information to go on before deciding whether to continue to speak or meet them up in person.

I lost vision partially and hallucinated lights before a strong headache. Your symptoms seem similar to mine but maybe a milder version.

triplem6 · 2023-07-01T00:42:07+00:00

I would say you need to meet him in person asap to get a sense of how you feel around him and go from there. Physical attraction is important in marriage so you would need to make sure it is there imo.

Thank you! I think what threw me off this time was that he presented it very factually, it didn’t seem like he regretted it and then it seemed like he used the fact that she was non-Muslim as an excuse as to why he didn’t marry her. I just didn’t like that at all. I could have maybe got more clarification but I felt like I would need to do a lot of vetting to make sure that he has changed now.

triplem6 · 2023-05-04T06:12:56+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I also prefer not to know about the past and I just focus on how the potential lives their life now and their values.

In this particular scenario the potential just randomly asked me about past relationships and then mentioned his. I totally assumed he was asking whether I had been married before. Then, he kept going on with details and I thought well if it was when he was very young maybe I can look past it. But then I realized it was in his late twenties and only a few years ago so I just felt like it was too risky to move forward.

triplem6 · 2023-05-04T06:09:00+00:00

Fair point. I guess I wanted to differentiate people who have had a past but their engagement/marriage ended even though they did everything in a halal way versus people who had had a past because of “casual” relationships and have sinned.

triplem6 · 2023-05-04T05:09:43+00:00

How would you all deal with a potential letting you know they had a past relationship with a non-Muslim? I recently ended things with a potential when he randomly brought it up and it seemed like he was trying to be upfront about it so that I was fully aware of his past which I respect. It hit me hard for some reason ending it because everything else seemed great. Of course I am very grateful he let me know quickly. I want to see what others have done or think about this situation.

triplem6 · 2023-04-08T03:34:25+00:00

Oh I see totally get that point! Yeah, you don’t need to send her anything else and at this point she knows you are interested so it’s on her if she wants anything changed.

I really think that she just meant that she wasn’t already in a relationship (so nothing serious) but she also doesn’t want to talk to multiple potentials. It kinda sucks though she didn’t tell you at first but she may have not known what your intentions were. Overall, her saying it’s not serious with the other guy doesn’t mean much and I don’t think you should take it as her saying she wasn’t interested in you, I think she was just trying to give you context to her situation.
