    Thank you both! I have not tried shop & ship yet, can look into it..

    I actually don’t use a lot of make up but I really want to swap my foundation to a low to one.. I already ordered Ilia mascara from Amazon direct that arrived but then 2x trying out ordering foundations from the us and they just say they delivered but the tracking doesn’t even show if came to the country.

    I would love to try HAN or RMS but didn’t know RMS would deliver here.. also sometimes shipping cost almost as much as the product which is super annoying.

    Hence I was hoping there is a secret place in Dubai.. there would be market for it so I’m so sad we don’t have local shopping options.

    Thank you

    Oh, amazing post. I would also be interested to know some good brands or places where we could find right quality cooking pots! I have been looking for a bigger broth pot but very difficult to find anything even with ceramic quoting. Everything in the shops are granite or titanium.

    , hello

    Would you know where I could run a test here in Dubai? I would love to do it out of interest and not sure if I could fit something like this under my annual health check up but I would like to investigate.

    Thank you

    Thank you, I realized I forgot to reply.

    The second opinion was great to talk about my questions (that raised after leaving the initial clinic).

    Thank you Bernadette, ok so I guess is a progress. I’ll keep taking iron then and will probably try the Thorne one now as I need to stock up and the docs keep giving me some other brands.

    So when ferritin increases it means that I’m replenishing my stores? and iron in blood is more like a current indication and would change based on things like I just had my period or I took the supplement etc?

    The progesterone is from a compounding pharmacy, made for me. I’m not sure if bio-compatible but I was told is natural progesterone made for me.
    I have a question here too. I got 100mg to take daily btw day10-26 of my cycle. But I recently watched the “Estrogene out of control” session and I just learned we naturally produce about 40mg a day.. so isn’t that way too much I was given? I have tender breasts now after taking it for 4 days… no other side effects so far.

    Thank you for all the useful information as always. So happy that there is a community where I can discuss these questions.

    Hi
    and
    ,

    I just retested my Iron levels sine I’ve been taking iron supplements in the last 4-5 months.

    So the ferritin level increased but the iron in blood did not increase, in fact is lower…
    I’m still waiting for my CBC to see the latest hemoglobin levels..

    The doc just emailed me and I didn’t have a chance to discuss what this means…

    Should I really just go for an infusion to boost levels up? It doesn’t seem that in 5-6 months I’m making enough progress with supplements.

    Still I’m trying to figure out why I deplete over time. Another general GP asked me to look into celiac disease… but I don’t really have symptoms I don’t think but was told that it can happen unnoticed and could be a reason why I don’t absorb iron properly?

    Heavy period is still a concern but I just can’t imagine that can keep me so low even with supplements. However, next perhaps I’ll consider removing my copper coil.
    Also, my gyne said I have a thickening of the uterus (she mentioned myohyperplasia) which causes heavy bleeding and that is caused by lower progesterone levels so she prescribed progesterone for 3 months to take cyclically to reverse tgat condition. There maybe also some interlinks..

    My main goal is however I believe would be to increase my iron to a healthier level.

    Thank you for any suggestions or further advices on this.

    Thank you so much Daniel! This is super useful.

    Thankfully I can still eat protein with this diet (excluding pork,beef or shellfish) so will keep protein most of the days for my one solid meal.

    I will keep an eye on my digestion as well for sure and will probably try and go do some infrared sauna too once a week. (If it was summer I would just need to stay outside for a while in Dubai lol).

    Regards to chlorophyll I found interesting info here. Although it says chlorophyll is better for detox specifically Chlorella seems to have amino acids that you mentioned and iron and other minerals that could be beneficial but still having the chlorophyll.. probably will go with that option.

    Many thanks again!
    Sz.
