So here's the PM "program" so far:
Days 1-4 monthly visit from Aunt Flo -- 0 mg
days 5-12 500mg PM increasing to 1000mg
days 13-15 Nothing (ovulation)
days 16-28 500 mg PM increasing to 1000 mg
+ 1000 mg Calcium/ daily
I *really* want a normal cycle, so I am sure this will require some tweaking, but its a start.
I also used NB for about 30min today. First time pumping in 8 months... Let the conditioning phase begin! So I'll be doing that for about 30-60 min. at least 5x/week.
I'm looking into adding biotin, or something else for hair/nails to increase collagen production. I have read that taking collagen supplements does zippo for you though because the body can't absorb and use collagen in this form. I'd really LOVE to hear what sorts of supplements you all are using because I don't want to spend a bunch of $$ on stuff that doesn't work!!!
Advice?? What supplements are your favorite? Also any advice about cycling PM is very appreciated -its so confusing with so many different options. Thanks!
