I do know that all the symptoms I mentioned, particularly acne, are not necessarily caused by excess testosterone. Far to many people are convinced that it's a direct cause and effect relationship. It's entirely possible that I don't have raised androgens at all, but I almost wish I did, since it could be easily addressed.
About the progesterone, I am supplementing with PC, but so far I've only done it twice. I used it for one week the month before last, and I've used it this month for only 2 days so far. The acne an excess body hair are something I've had since puberty. The sweating only started in the last couple of years. I'm 27 and I hardly sweated at all during my teens and early 20's. I still don't sweat all that heavily, it's just more than I'm used to. I have no idea whether I should really count it as a "symptom" of anything. What are your reasons for thinking I have a progesterone deficiency?
About the SP, I already stopped cold turkey. There wasn't any difference either way. I felt totally fine both during and after for some reason. 9 pills is actually the normal amount that Greenbush recommends for everyone. Lots of people take that amount, and most don't seem to experience anything bad because of it. If it's really true that most other brands cause negative symptoms at that dose, than GB must really be unusually weak. On the other hand, most people on this board consider it to be impossible to OD on SP. People who take large doses never seem to experience anything negative, either than supposedly bigger thighs and increased cellulite. As far as the weight gain is concerned, I'm still not convinced that SP was the cause of the cellulite and weight gain in the people who claim to have experienced it. If it really did, than it might be the result of indirectly raising estradiol in some people.
I'm assuming that SP only lowers DHT, not total testosterone. What would happen if a women's DHT became too low?
Also, sorry for all the questions, but what do you think of white peony?
It's had a slight increase in popularity around here lately.
