That is exactly where I am now....I dont know what exactly I am looking for

I am seeing an endocrinologist for my thyroid, I might as well discuss with him my concerns. I am not very enthusiastic about estrogen replacement therapy due to its side efffects.

Thank you Doc!

Yup, I'm still taking the hormones I mentioned; it's only been 3 days since that post.
