Thanks Susan,
I wasn't feeling much lately. Yesterday, I increased hops, and got some shoots in the right one. Today I increased FG, no effect yet. Again more hops tonight. Wait and see.
I think it's good that you were progesterone dominant in the second half of your cycle (if it becomes too bad, take less BS). It's also good that you were estrogen dominant before that. It just means your cycle is working.
No BS before day 12 now. PM: 1 is OK, 0 is also OK. Increase PM after your period.
In my post from yesterday afternoon, I linked an article that says maca prevented a testosterone excess that they tried to trigger with testosterone anthenate. So there is something true about a balancing effect. I have done some reading on maca, and found that the way Prettymama took it, in 6 week ramps, is probably best. Four week cycles are too short for maca. It builds its effect over a longer period.
