Re: blood work/estrogen/Sharon

[Guest guest]

Sharon,I'm interested in knowing more about this. Would you mine if I emailed you privately?Louise

For me, I decided I felt better on a rythmic dosing but at lower amounts than the standard wiley regimen. It took awhile to get it so I had a 28 day cycle and no negative effects like pms symtpoms. Some people like the static dosing that is the same each day of the 3 weeks on...and some people are happier not having a period. I was getting hot flashes with less estrogen and pms with more progesterone so it has been tricky to get it just right. On top of that the thyroid meds affect the whole thing also. It is a matter of getting everything in balance for yourself. Then stress or a depletion of critical nutrients can thow you out of balance as well. Too much testosterone (or DHEA) and your hair can fall out or grow more on your face. I have not been able to find a doctor who told me how much of everything....but i do

have a doctor who listens and allows me to adjust things as needed. I have had to do my own research and ask questions of people in informative groups such as this. This is a good place to learn and get feedback.

Thank you. I have a lot to learn.

If our levels are constantly changing, how would we know how much to take on a daily basis? Would we be just trying to approximate the perfect balanced cycle of a younger person?
