I purchased the last bottle of Swanson BO from Amazon in early Dec 2020. In the meantime, I found a product that sounded similar to Swanson BO called Standard Process Ovex (Amazon). Ovex was available but I was concerned about prion issues so I decided to try Ovex-P (OP), which is a porcine derived product. The OP was available immediately so I ordered a bottle while I waited for the Swanson BO.
OP results: I took a pill before bed and woke up the next morning with wood: very unusual for me, so maybe something was happening? I had some stomach pains with the first pill and reread the instructions: take with food. The next day I took a second pill, with food, and that night I woke up at 2 AM with hot flashes and some breast area tightness. The major side effect was high blood pressure. On the second day my BP rose as high as 190/90. I did some stuff to lower it immediately.
I checked the ingredients list and found nothing that would have caused the high BP except for the unknown ovarian ingredients (?). I waited 2 days and then took one quarter of a pill for a couple of days. My BP was slightly elevated.
My Swanson purchased finally arrived from Amazon (I stopped the OP). Instead of the Swanson BO that I ordered, I received Swanson Multi-Glandular (MG). It has 150 mg of ovarian and 150 mg of uterus tissues along with some other organ tissues. I was not too happy, but took a pill anyway. 12 hours after taking the pill I had some fairly strong feelings of anxiety. I have not had this type of feeling for 30+ years. When I woke up the next day I felt like I had a hangover and feeling very tired. On the positive side, I had no BP issues.
I am thinking about continuing with the OP pill in reduced dosage and see if my BP can be controlled to the point that I can take a normal dose. I am going to have to think about the MG pills. The anxiety feeling was not pleasant.
I would be interested to find out if anyone else has had similar experience.
