Hormone Review
The hospital nurse is also involved in reviewing my hormone regime between appointments with the endocrinologist. The results of a recent blood test showed I had an increased liver function. So I have to wait another 6 weeks and have a retest. Only then will a decision be made as to weather I can have an increased dose of Sandrena (Gel Oestrogen). My Oestrogen levels remain very low and it is frustrating me as it has now been several years and I am no nearer to getting ideal levels in my blood stream.
I am able to increase my Finasteride to 5mg immediately. That should help a little with reducing the rate that my beard regrows. In addition I have a letter asking my GP to prescribe Vaniqa.
The letter also asks my GP to examine the possible causes of my weight gain and bloating.
