I'm looking for help for Hashimoto's in menopause. Anyone with Hashi's knows it's almost impossible to find a doc to help. Now add the problem of your ovaries drying up, and the adrenals are really faced with an overwhelming challenge to make sex hormones, adrenal hormones and not be thrown off by a messed up thyroid.
The few docs who claim to know anything about BHRT say...use as little as possible to treat symptoms or they are of the opposite mindset and want to prescribe the "Wylie" protocol as an anti aging measure. My uterus is gone so most docs think I don't need progesterone but I understand progesterone is necessary for thyroid hormone conversion. Not to mention do I need DHEA to support adrenals? How do I lower SHBG? Any docs or articles to address these issues? Please don't refer me to Shames articles...he doesn't know squat about BHRT.
