The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.

As many of you know hormones was playing a role in my pain and I have been doing very well since seeing the dr in texas. This calculator might be helpful to see if you too might have a hormone imbalance, but please have it checked out by your dr. before buying any products to self treat it. Doing so without dr. care could make things worse.

If you would like more info on hormone imbalance my dr. has a very informative site. www.onlineallergycenter.com

I got an 82....that's why I put this up here so some more people can do this and then go talk to thier Dr about testing for hormones that are out of balance...I just found out today that mine are...as the test showed and it can cause everything that I am experiencing pain wise and all the rest of my symptoms....

I got a 66. Thanks for this info. I'm going to take this one to my dr. I'm seeing a new ob-gyn for a second opinion. Maybe I'll get different results.

My score was a 90!! I think I may be SOL. Of course, I had a hysterectomy at 25 and only half a thyroid, so I think that is to be expected.

My score was 38 but I downplayed a lot of my ansswers thinking "oh that's not that bad" I'll go back and answer them the way I started to and see what my score is.

I had a hysterectomy in my 40's so on the quiz I don't care if I'm infertile

Be wise and dignified like the swan: he maintains his composure, staying unruffled on the surface, while always paddling like crazy underneath.
