Slightly embarrassed to be asking this, but: cycle got longer by six days. anyone else. Brought the cycle-annotated log to an appointment and it changed the…
insulin resistance, cycles, and the thing that finally worked. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this. Perimenopause and all of this at…
Thinking out loud about this: trying to conceive? that is a clinician conversation, not a forum one. Telogen shedding follows a period of significant weight change…

Reference standardsPosting this as a discussion rather than a claim: the contraception interaction question, with the actual label wording. Why the evidence base here is thin, which is…
Reporting in. perimenopause, 18 months, and why the usual advice failed me. 18 months. Those are measured, not estimated, and not rounded up in my favour. Brought the…
the trials under-powered every question in this community — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested. Trial populations for the major programmes were…
my androgens moved before my weight did. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. Started logging the cycle in the same sheet as the dose.…
The title is the whole question — hair shedding — is it the drug or the deficit — but here is why I am asking. Anything involving pregnancy, contraception efficacy or…
help me understand cycle, I have read the wiki twice. Searched first, found three threads that contradict each other, hence the post. Went looking for trial data on the…
60 weeks on 1.0mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring. Posting the boring middle of the process, because the internet is full of the start and the end and nothing…
stalled for 2 weeks at 12.5mg and I refuse to panic this time. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. The relevant figures are 2 weeks…
proposal — a flair for insulin resistance posts. Short post, long comment section, probably. The hair shedding was the thing that frightened me most and the thing that…
does PCOS actually matter or is it forum lore at this point. Searched first, found three threads that contradict each other, hence the post. Hormonal variation across…
the fertility question that gets asked weekly, answered properly. Making the case below, and I expect to lose some of it in the comments. Brought the cycle-annotated…

Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: someone explain insulin resistance to me like I have not read a paper in years. Trial populations…
can we stop arguing about cycle until somebody posts a number. If this has been answered properly somewhere, link me and I will delete. Telogen shedding follows a…
The title is the argument: my triglycerides moved and I cannot work out whether cycle is why. Here is the rest of it. Anything involving pregnancy, contraception…
reading cycle threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly. I have gone back and forth on this for months. Fertility changed faster than I expected with the weight loss.…
17 months in and PCOS is still the thing I get wrong. Numbers below. Ask me the boring questions, they are the useful ones. Figures up front so nobody has to dig: 17…
