Hi peeps,

I would like to start a new programme with RC+FG+FS combination, wondering if there's any advice on the dosage to start with?

GNC Red Clover - 2.5g standardised (40mg Isoflavone)/ pill
GNC Fenugreek - 610mg/ pill
Bio-Life Flaxseed - 1000mg/ pill

Thanks alot

Oh, please share your programme if you are taking RC too, thanks

Hi,

my only advice is that unless you have already tried PM and it disagreed with you, if you want results as quickly as possible try it.

Good luck!

Bryony

Dear Bryony,

Thanks for your advice, I have tried PM but it doesn't work on me. Tried RC, it grow me up 2cm for the 1st week, but not sure if it will persist.

I have also bought FG and FS as I have been reading this forum and many recommended to pair FG and FS with Phytoestrogen. But I'm unsure with the dosage @.@

That's odd. Didn't work, or made you feel bad? What dosage were you on? I'd be surprised if it was totally ineffective at any dose, though I do realise that we are all different.

Hi Bryony,

I've tried 2x500mg, stall after 2 days. Maybe I should try PM cream instead?

I'm now on 1x2500mg RC + 2x610mg FG + 1x1000mg Flax for almost 2 weeks, and I'm doing 2 sets of 10min 360 rotation massage too (morning and night). Was having swelling for the first 10 days, but for the past 5 days the swelling stopped. I'm thinking to up my FG dosage from 2x610mg to 4x610mg. Hope the swelling comes from estrogen dominance as I'm having swollen ankle (it might comes from my 30min treadmill session thou).

I plan to add in PM cream for now, since I still have some RC with me. Will update you all again once I've tried the PM cream with my regime

By the way, mind to share your regime Bryony ? ;p

Hi,

I don't know if I read that right, but you said "stall after 2 days".... does that mean that you took it for 2 days and gave up because it didn't work?

I must be misunderstanding.... _nothing_ works in 2 days.

I think I got my first tingling after a week or two... and being impetuous, I started off on a fairly high dose, which I would not recommend.

By the way, mind to share your regime Bryony ? ;p

The first thing, that I discovered the hard way, is that you do not take PM at bed time. Empirically, it seems to produce material that need to be flushed out of your kidneys on a regular basis. If I take them last thing for more than a few days, then I get tremendous pains in my kidney area.

That said, I am currently averaging 3g (6 x 500mg) per day, and have been for almost 1.5 years. Most people consider this a high dose, but I have found it necessary for my mental balance.

A beginner would be best advised to work up to the dose that suits them best, i.e. which keeps their breast duct area feeling itchy/tender

I've recently experimented with a weekly high/low dose cycle that still averages about 3g/day.

Right now, I take 1g /day 4 days per week, and 6g/day 4 days/week.
I don't necessarily recommend it, because 6g is a high dose by any standards, but this weekly cycling appears to prevent stalling.

If you read the FG bottle it should state 2 pills 2-3 times daily. And that's for a genetic female. You're not taking nearly enough.

JMT please specify what brand and product you mean. For example, Ainterol R1 has a recommended dose for a female of 1 500mg pill taken twice a day, and they specifically say not to take them at the same time. I do not know what dosing recommendations other manufacturers may have. I'm sure the same kind of variation exists for each herb, FG, RC, etc.

I was replying to jesse191's last post regarding fenugreek (which is why I said "FG"). I still have some 610mg and the dosage recommendation is 4-6 pills per day. Before I started PM I took 6/day which gave some growing pains but wasn't strong enough to trigger budding.
