Thanks Mary G! It's Dr Savvas I think he's called that I'm seeing at the clinic but he is Studd trained. I can't wait until Oct to see Prof Studd himself but I'm sure it will be fine.
I will experiment with dosing. Instinct tells me split dosing makes sense in terms of trying to establish some hormonal stability but I'll have to 'suck it n' see' because im also on thyroid meds which I currently take either at night or early hours of the morning if I've eaten late the night before.
Very interesting that low oestrogen affects your thyroid function......I think I need to be careful now I'm on an increased of thyroid medication. I have a suspicion that when some oestrogen builds up in my system that I'll be able to better utilise the thyroid medication....I'd better keep an eye on things as I don't want to end up all hyped up on too much thyroid hormone!
Looking forward to starting the gel tonight!
