I have a question. :hmm:
Does anyone have more problems during ovulation? Every time I ovulate, I have excessive discharge and it seems to make it hard to empty my bladder. It's almost like it's a "glue" and the urine can't pass thru it. I know that sounds weird, but that's Exactly how it feels, and when I have the discharge it also burns my urethra. When I'm not ovulating and when I have No discharge I'm perfectly fine.
I've been checked for ALL infections, and NOPE, NONE...so I am wondering if anyone else experiences more problems when they ovulate? Anyone know what this could be? What I can do to feel better? UGHHHHHHHHHH :headbang:
Also, I had some blood taken and my tests came back showing I was LOW on the "LOW END" for estrogen. So, my doctor said estrogen cream is what I needed to help all of my symptoms. He gave me Estrace ( couldn't tolerate it ) and then they compounded an estrogen cream for me that was mixed with KY Jelly as the base, and I couldn't tolerate that either, I swelled up a little and it made it feel "numb" when I voided. Now they think I may be allergic to estrogen. :rolleyes:
Does anyone know anything about estrogen and how it works? Obviously my body is in lack of it, and I do feel better when my estrogen levels are at it's peek, so I do think that this type of treatment would help with my retention/ hesitation problems with urinating, but does anyone know what alternative treatment for estrogen depletion there is if any, if I AM allergic to it? :hmm:
Sorry for this being so lengthy, but I'm so miserable and sick of going thru this every couple weeks, it's NEVER ending. :help:
Thank you for any/all suggestions/opions/answers to my discharge and estrogen questions!
