    Thumbs up Whoo hoo!! Finally i know!!

    Ok! So i am so excited because after 12+ months of trying to conceive without a single friggin bite...FINALLY someone can tell me whats wrong!!

    I have a hormone inbalance, that hundreds of dollars worth of doctors could not pick up!
    Too much estrogen, not enough prostegon(sp?).

    So i have some tablets to fix me up! and i have to stop eating chicken, i can only buy "free range" so ones that have not been stuffed with hormones!!

    Its a big sigh of relief, and i pray it does work!!

    He actually said, "i garantee we will have you fixed up by the time your wedding comes!"


    (Which is 5 months and 13 days away...not that im counting lol)

    That must be such a relief for you.

    I often think, in moments of self-pity that I'm actually "lucky" to know exactly what's going on.

    So good for you. Would it be worth only eating free-range for all your meat? Who helped to diagnose this issue? What tablets are you taking?

    GL with your wedding.

    well i went to a natural therapist, he uses idi..idis...iris...oh i forget lol but he looks into your eyes and can tell by the different colours and discolouration and blah blah blah! lol

    He described my symptoms perfectly, given me some chaste tree herbs to take for 10 days when i start getting crabby.

    You see, i go through the motions of getting a period, but never actually get one. So this is meant to fill up the prostegon levels so that i actually do get a period
    Wow, a woman excited about getting AF...this is a rare sight indeed

    Hope that makes sense, i usually rant!

    OH! I totally know what it's like... the relief to finally KNOW what the issue is! Then you KNOW what needs to be done to sort it... makes you feel a little more in control...

    About the Free Range Chicken... I am ALL FOR free range and Organic - but I am 99.9% certain in Australia it's completely illegal to use hormones in meat/chicken...



    Good luck X

    You are right, fatgirlslim, hormones have NOT been used in the chicken industry in Australia for over 40 years. My DH works in the industry, and he gets mad when he reads signs in butchers reading 'hormone free'.... don't get him started lol!!
