Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hi Lynda, Nope, sex-drive is non-existent and acne is not THAT bad. Not high testoterone. I suspent it's just my thyroid again since the levels have dropped considerably. Do you know that my gyno says: hysterectomy! Please tell me the procedure you had done. I knew there was certainly another way - bastards. Just take everything out and pop these pills and everything will be okay. Jerk! I am 33 for crying out loud. I don't want my uterus yanked out. Sorry to vent there lol. Thanks for your help!!!!!! > , > I also had a backward-tilting uterus after two babies and they weren't even large babies, I think this happens to many women. I had mine corrected surgically. > > When you say your skin is so dreadful now, in what way? Do you have acne? > How's your sex drive?

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hi Cindi, My back and face. It's soooo annoying. I am pretty sure it's from my levels being so low again. There was a brief period where I was almost looking like my old self . P.S. I never had a zit on my back until last year when my thyroid went bonkers. > > > Plus, since the > > whole Hashimoto's nightmare, my skin is dreadful.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 You're welcome, . It's well worth the read, if you're having problems. Let me know if you decide to pursue it. BTW, I had chronic acne on the back of my neck until I got on Armour, and it's now clearing up. ~ > > Thanks !
