Guest guest Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 > > I REALLY want my old body back. Any ideas? ---------------- Excess estrogen can make you retain water, gain weight around the thighs, hips, belly (?). Dr. Rind diagnosed me with this a few years ago but all the herbs and supplements he gave me were overwhelming -- I hate hate to swallow alot of pills. He also said I had weak adrenals. The two go hand in hand. Pregnenolone is really helping me with fatigue,pain and I've read it helps progesterone which cancels out excess estrogen. Google estrogen dominance and read the symptom checklist - I have almost all the symptoms. I'm waiting for my canary hormone results to see how bad it is. Then I'll decide whether to use progesterone cream. Also, Vitex is an herbal supplement that helps balance hormones. I got one that has some liver detox herbs in it as well to help clear out the excess estrogen. I'm going to start adding it tomorrow. Anyway, the imbalance between estrogen/progesterone is a huge problem for alot of us (some men,too) and it is not good to ignore it. Increases the chance of cancer plus makes you feel and look awful. val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
