Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I'd like to add to what Val said. http://www.realthyroidhelp.com/ On this forum there is a Men's section. They advised that in addition to what Val has told you that my husband should take action to get his estrogen levels down. They have advised that he takes Dim. You might check in with them when you husband gets his results back from his saliva testing. Gale > > Hi, I went ahead and ordered a test for me and one for my husband.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 About DIM. I would NOT have him or anyone takethis until cortisol is optimized! Low cortiosl causes high estrogen. Normalizing the cortisl may also normalize the estrogen. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I had the same problem with my estrogen being high and got the same advice. I did as Val said first and got on Isocort (now on HC) and my estrogen dropped down to normal range within a month. > > About DIM.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Thank you Gale, I felt warm just reading your post! General question: Has anyone heard of a product called AdrenaCalm, by Apex Energetics (nutritional complexes). My complementary doctor put me on this lotion after my abnormal tests results last year. I was suppossed to apply it twice a day based on my test results. I don't know if it was working specifically because I didn't continue and never retested. (I didn't really understand/believe that he could find out it was my adrenals with saliva! and muscle testing). Although he was the first who first 'diagnosed' Hashi! with muscle testing. How weird... It phasphosphatidyl serine but iot also has: vit B1, B2, valerian root, lemon balm, milk thistle.... and a bunch of other stuff but the first ingredient is PS. He knows I don't take drugs (ha ha) so I trusted that it was OK ? Esmeralda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
