Thank you so much for your answer! I do have the normal values on the results, but I know that those can sometimes not be the norm for every one.
For exemple, for iron deficiency leading to hair loss, the normal range is between 12.5 and 150. But most women regrow hair only when they reach 70-100. So that's why I was asking, sometimes, some values are preferable.
Yes I know that iron resp. ferritin should be at least 70. My value was below 1.5 many years ago, I was almost anemic! But with iron tablets and patience I was able to get the value to 100. But I need to continue to take the iron tabs, otherwise it drops to below 60 within a few months...

Ok if this helps: My hormones were measured exactly one year ago (also because of the hair, lol) and the values were:
Estradiol: 115.0 pg/ml (range: 60 – 150)
Progesterone: 10.5 ng/ml (range: 0.72 – 17.8)
It was measured in luteal phase, 9 days later I got my period.
So yes your estradiol is low, but your progesterone is even lower!
Have you thought about it to use bioidentical PC (progesterone cream)?

I'm 2 kilos heavier than when I started my first diet, but I still feel thiner than when I was 17, I don't know why! Maybe I have more muscles than what I had then. I read muscles are heavier than fat in your body. In fact I read waaayy to much. LOL
I know androcur is heavy dosed, but I'll try anyway, some women acknowledged it did wonders on their skin and hair, with no bothering side effect, so I'll try that and see how i react. If for some reason I don't react well I will stop it. My idea is to kick start the recovery and then progressively switch to natural treatments such as herbs.
Oh and you are very well proportionned! you have top model measurements!!! I'm kinda jealous lol
Good luck with the androcur. I hope you won't have any side effects.
And thanks for the compliment. I need more boobs, then my figure will be good.
I was thinking about it, but I wasn't sure about my levels and I did not want to mess with them

So Basically, I'm 27 but I have values that are perimenopausal? OMG
