Dear Julie
There is a link to hormones and GD. In some of the info I read that GD is related to a high estrogen level relative to other hormones. Don’t know if the estrogen is cause or effect. In my case, high estrogen, no progesterone, low DHEA. The doc did these tests as a matter of course along with the thyroid tests. Sorry I can’t point you to the item, but I was browsing at Barnes & Noble book stores in their medical books section when I found this. Also, several people on this board have mentioned this as well. One more piece of the puzzle. I am getting my hormones back to normal levels with additional hormones. Karen
