Guest guest Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I decided to follow valid advice and switch to pregnenolone from DHEA; it works marvelously, hopefully without running my testosterone too high. Jo-Anne is taking 25 mg too to go with her HGH increaser SomaLife gHP; I'm starting another 10-month SomaLife program this week. (Jo has been on SomaLife gHP for more than a year now; the latest guess on her age was 28 again a couple of days ago (she's 47) and now we can both outrun our peer group all good, Duncan > > > > > > > I have tried natural progesterone pills which doc prescribed me and i > > > > already got side effect: drowsiness. i have red it could be from too > > > > much of progesterone.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 ABSOLUTELY it does. I spent 6 years taking progesterone (in a skin cream) and could not figure out why I had such Bad Candida and finally had to stop using the Progesterone. Bonnie _____ From: candidiasis [mailto:candidiasis ] On Behalf Of imsinfo Sent: February 10, 2009 5:10 PM candidiasis Subject: Progesterone I have tried natural progesterone pills which doc prescribed me and i already got side effect: drowsiness. i have red it could be from too much of progesterone. I can cut dose to 1/4 to see if it help but if not i will have to quit. In addition to that I worry that it can cause again candida overgrow. One expert write that some women have candida from progesterone treatment.My doc don`t know about such research. There is the link: http://candida- <http://candida-international.blogspot.com/2007/05/interview-with-> international.blogspot.com/2007/05/interview-with- christine-tomlinson-phd.html I would like to ask if somebiody took progesterone and if it increase your candida symptoms?

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 It seems it can make candida worse even in crea. I thought I can swithch to cream. But the same time I have red that progesterone deficiency cause craving for sweets and sugar. I hope that it can help to reduce craving to food in generally too. I am overeating and my cholesterol and trygiceraides are high not.I was following Bee`s diet high in fat and now is the result. My doc said I can`t digest fat properly though I love it especially clarifyed butter. I started taking Muti Grandular supplement which has a lot of Spleen and no sugars. I have red in my book that it can help to fight bacterial infections like candida. It has a little bit of adreanal tissie too so probably it can help for my low adrenals too. > > ABSOLUTELY it does.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 I feel it's a feminizing hormone as per Dr. and men should not use it. Unless you want to cry at sad movies and such. If your low and the other hormones are off like DHEA you can try Pregnenolone Cream it's at the top of the hormone tree and will convert into other hormones that one needs. http://www.vitaminusa.com/prbocr2ozbyl.html Here is a link from the files section at the home page called " Dr. 's Steroid Pathway.pdf " http://tinyurl.com/2a8mo5p If this link does not work go there and look it up you will see how this works. Dr. feels there is a lot of crap out on the web about men doing Progesterone and feels most of his men got gyno on it and high levels of Estradiol, with hot flash's and such.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 I had a battle with high E2, its look likes its under control now. It measured 22 in two recent tests. But I'm still having problems i.e. libido, ED(i can get erections, but sometimes they are strong, other times, they are weak. I also noticed, it takes me longer to re-cooperate after ejaculation. I also noticed that ejaculation volume has decreased. I used to be like North. I never had progestrone tested, is it possible this is high? I am 26 and was in the best shape of my life (thx to MMA training). I did some TRT and tried to restart my body with Nolvadex. I felt better after a lil while, and then I used the TRT cream again for one day. It went down hill from there (maybe the true effects of what I did to my body are just finally showing after time). I am going to see Dr. June 3rd. After the whole TRT and Nolvadex incident, my Lh went from a baseline of 3.4 to 10.1, and future tests showed it at 6.1, and now from about a month ago 7.1. I'm not sure what is going on here. I do have some minor atrophy, but all my tests on T came back high all around 820. Very confusing, I was thinking maybe after the nolvadex incident and then taking TRT right after, caused my DHT to go up (I lost hair) and my E2 was high. I never had progestrone tested. Maybe it still high? Any thoughts? Thank you. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
