Hi Iggy,

Ambitious , btw very cool intro and thought out plan.

If I could make a couple of suggestions, before you get started get the vitamin D deficiency in order. A vitamin D deficiency can effect absorption of nutrients.

• DIM while it balances estrogen metabolism (which is good) it can also diminish E levels too. DIM speeds up E Metabolism.
  

• Interesting choice on PM/BO, can you explain the choice?, I think it's risky so early in the program.
  

• Have you consider PC in luteal?
  

• I'd stick with MSM.
  

• MSM- Methyl sulfonyl methane, makes collagen by changing softer protein into harder connective tissue collagen, it's used for pain and swelling of the joints caused by osteoarthritis. MSM is also said to aid in male enhancement because its large amount of sulfur which benefits collagen synthesis.
  

• Flax may or may not work, people metabolize it differently, (IMO, coconut oil
  would be a better choice)
  

• Coconut oil-makes connective tissues stronger for that much desired softness and elasticity. superb antioxidant activities that neutralize free radicals and slowing down aging, aids in breast feeding, Coconut oil is nature's richest source of MCFAs."
  

• Flaxseed oil-Lignan, massage, omega-3 fatty acids, Flax seed oil can increase prolactin, at the cost of lowering estrogen, (lignans inhibit aromatase, slows down the conversion of testosterone to estrogen), helps with breast pain
  

• Careful with tipping the balance of phytoestrogens, too much will stall and limit your growth. Cycling is a huge benefit towards that balance, Dandelion helps up-regulate estrogen receptors and aids in detoxifying.
  

welcome aboard and be safe!

Thanks for the tips! Since I got those results in January I started taking a liquid magnesium with vitamin D supplement and then I switched over to Vemma liquid muiltivitamin which had 250% vitamin D. I'm almost out of that, but my guess is that the Vit D deficiency is gone, who knows :o I'm not quite as tired all the time as I used to be! I should get 100% of most vitamins through nutrition though hopefully.

I based it off Chiyomilk's plan which I read she did PM during Folicular then Whitex and Super B-Up during Luteal. I checked the ingredients of Super B-Up and it included dandelion root, wild yam and fennugreek which is all stuff that I have (it also has a buncha other stuff like black cohosh, chasteberry, and more, but just sticking with what I've already bought for now lol). It also said Whitex is placenta and basically does the same thing as Bovine Ovary, which I had already bought so I substituted that there.

The flax oil I am only using for massage, I did it last night and wow it is so much better than other oils I tried just because it doesn't really absorb into the skin, so you can just keep massaging forever with a small amount lol. I will definitely try it with coconut oil too as I have some of that.

What is PC? I might be having a brain cramp lol.

I agree I don't want to take too much of anything, I think I will start everything at a very low dose and re-evaluate in a month or earlier if I encounter any issues.
