Pam,

Its very interesting what you have to say about estrogen. I have just been
diagnosed with GD. Funny thing – It came on just after I stopped taking
Desogen, a High estrogen birth control pill, which I had been taking for
a year to control a case of very strange acne. (of course i was also using
the desogen for birth control too.) I have had strange symptoms for over a
year including very high stress for no outstanding reason, acne and a
change in my saliva. I’m really curious about the estrogen, but when I asked
an endo friend of mine who has been working for 35 years – she said forget
the estogen theory. Who Knows? I appreciate your thoughts on the matter.

Thanks, Daleth
