So UB was a bust as was my attempt at maca. Both are products that I would say do not raise estrogen much if any for those that want products that don't. In fact My estrogen defiency symptoms intensified when I took either of these products. sigh... I had to go back to the drawing board.
I don't want to be on steriods to help heal my adrenals, since it really can become a terrible cycle, so I made my own routine to adress that area and am please to report that I am seeing improvement in my symptoms. My current routine is below.
a.m
2 one source multi vitamins
500mg magnesium
3 raw adrenal pills...2 in the morning 1 at night.
1 b-complex vitamin
1 folic acid (to counter my methotrexate (low dose chemo) side effects
progesterone cream
estriol cream
So, once I increased the raw adrenal and added the magnesium, my migraines stopped, so I'm on track. I will be having a new hormone test soon to see where I am. I plan to add pm to my program on the first day of my cycle in hopes of raising my estrogen back up some.
I never thought I would be desperate to increase estrogen, but here I am. The side effects of low estrogen are pretty horrible.
migraines
confusion
memory lose
loss of muscle firmness
vision changes
emotional
tired
dry skin
hot flashes
and my favorite was being diagnosed with vaginal atrophy.... nice
I've seen an imprivement in all of these things since starting the estriol and the progesterone, but it still has alot of room for improvement. I'm crossing my fingers the pm will be the solution, since on the siriporn site this is what they say it can do.
1. Pueraria Mirifica is the next generation of natural hormone replacement for menopausal support
a. Bone Health Support1........... Did you know that many leading osteoporosis drugs are synthetic estrogenic molecules ?
b. Healthy vaginal discharge, vaginal aging, vaginal dryness, vaginal atrophy support2
c. Supports healthy hair and skin3
d. Healthy menstrual cycle support, support for night sweats, hot flashes etc.3
2. Pre-Menopausal support3
I will update once I begin the new program and notice anything and maybe on the side see some breast growth too.... two birds with one stone would be nice.
