Could Bloating Stomach Ache, Skin And Hair Dullness Be Due To Medications?

I was inquiring into the question below that was unanswered regarding Foltanx for MTHFR with combination of Armour Thyroid and DHEA. I too was prescribed these and am now on Estogen to try to get my body back into normal functioning mode. I eat right and exercise 4-5 days a week. My stomach is achy and bloated and my skin and hair are dull and I have a lack of energy and no libido. Am I taking too much?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
The stomach ache and bloating is likely to be due to gastritis which could have been caused due to the medications. The dullness of skin & hair and loss of libido is probably linked to the oestrogen and DHEA. Whether your dose is adequate or more depends on what target of treatment is and not on the side effects and hence not possible to conclude based on the details provided.
