Hey Isabelle,
I did the online hormone balance test and this is what came out of it..you are right and so was my feeling today..today I felt like I was low in progesterone and high in estrogen and testosterone..
It said I was estrogren domince sp? and low progesterone and high testosterone..it made it sound like I need to fix the progesterone to balance out the estrogen..and you know what it said for testosterone..to cut down sugar and carbs..did I say I added more carbs and ate extra sugar...well back to my orginal eating which was keeping me clear..one or 2 days before maca I upped my carbs and a few days ago I have been eating more sugar, way more then usual..so I know what to do there, but do you think I should take something for the progesterone this has been going through my head alot, considering my age..one place I read maca but dont get that one..one mentioned wild yam..what else is there..should I just get a cream or get a tita cream with that in it...
OK I looked up herbs and this is a list I came up with:
Dong qui
Angelicas
American ginseng (dont know if it says just ginseng if it is same)
Chaste tree
Dandelion
Nettle
Red Clover
Licorice
and Saw Palmentto was in the list too.
Well I am leaning towards if I decide on something orally;
American ginseng (would be my first choice because it help the adrenals too)
Licorice (not sure with this one but it helps other areas of interest but I remember you saying something about blood presure)
boreline of these choices:
Red clover
Dong qui
Angelicas (this one sound not to bad)
Nettle (this did sound too bad either)
Wild Yam
Maybe I can pick more then one.. You know what my Breast Success has some good ones in it..here are the ingredients..maybe I can take these after the PM's..the mgs are very low..but why waste them if I could get use out of them..what do you think I should do.
