menstruating and after that I haven't since. With no

warning either. Premenapause wasn't likely since I was

29 going on 30 yrs old with regular periods

previously. but Dr's thought maybe it was stress or

malnutrition. They almost had me convinced.

Since then I've had a lot of tests. My PS is Dr.Kolb

also. I've had blood tests to check hormones and

thyroid which were normal (waste of time and money)

I've had an MSH test that was abnormal (low) and VST

test that wan normal. I still wasn't satisfied with

that, so I took a saliva test to check hormones and

cortisol morning, noon, evening and night. All were

low except testosterone was high and I was close to

adrenal failure.

I am on adrenal supplements and show some improvement.

I don't need anymore convincing, I'm not going to

waste anymore time, money, or most importantly my

health just because of my own self denial. I'm going

to make plans for explant in July. I'm just worried

about recovery. Dr. kolb said she would use

corticostiods during surgery for my adrenals but I am

too scared to take drugs especially steriods. She said

one time wouldn't hurt but I'll research it.

Thanks for the links. Now I know where to start.

God Bless,

Liz
