Her estradiol levels are menopausal.
Has she gone through/started early menopause?
If not, in what phase of her menstrual cycle were these labs drawn (I would assume follicular phase)?
If it isn't menopause, then I would suspect that it is because of whatever is lowering her estrogen levels.Last edited by Bonaparte; 09-20-2014 at 01:26 PM.

In addition to the concern about the estradiol, I am wondering whether she might be anaemic, and about her blood glucose levels. Is this all the blood work that was done?
Her testosterone levels are also low, or since the levels for women are not as well established as for men, perhaps it is better to say they are sub-optimal.

Post it all. The more we can see, the more we can point out things we think could be relevant.

Ok, well an amphetamine analogue can mess with all sorts of stuff. Its common side effects match up to all your wife's symptoms.
Phentermine is only supposed to be used short term for weight loss (a kickstart if you will). How long has she been on it?
I'd try tapering off that and see if it helps, but she should bring all this to her doc's attention first (especially since he's actually getting paid for this. lol)Last edited by Bonaparte; 09-22-2014 at 01:09 PM.
