I'm sure lots of us have a few thoughts on some of the questions and answers and it is good of flame to volunteer to coordinate the input and maintain the faq document. I also think the document may be a lot easier to maintain and review if we make each question its own post on the blog. Editing, updating, or enhancing a question or its answer won't require changing the entire document and will make it a lot easier to identify updates for readers. That blog won't be used for anything else, I created it purely to hold this stuff. Thoughts?
Maybe the FAQ can reference additional information should the newcomer want to learn more information about a particular NBE topic?
For example, with the side-effects question we could have a few common side-effects, and then list links to entries that go into more detail on this matter. I think the FAQ should function as a sort of NBE 101 for newcomers: basic information should be provided to make it easier to get a general overview, but then having links in which members can post elaborate entries that are separate from the FAQ.
Here's an example of the layout if I'm not making sense.
Question:
10. What is estrogen dominance?
FAQ Answer:
The term estrogen dominance is used to describes physical symptoms that arise because the body’s level of estrogen is currently too high.
More detailed answer:

sfem's entry
Monika's entry
etc.
Using this layout I think would make it easy for newcomers to learn more about what they want to know about NBE without getting bogged down with having to skip over matters they're not interested in. For instance, some members are very concerned about maintaining functionality, while others are not.
Sfem, I corrected the "chair" typo and added the bit about wearing a sports bra with breast forms. I'm going to need more time though to fully review your post.
