I am hoping that if I can get them back to a normal level, that it will help with the anxiety and depression also. But my gyn says this is going to be a battle since my body seems resistant to stuff.

I was a vegetarian for ten years. Will you hold off on the cleanse while being medicated? I've never done that, but am interested in how you feel when they straighten out your hormones. What do you think you'll be taking? The usual thyriod and estrogen, or something else?
