I am sort of insulted by your comment "Pay attention to your body." That's assuming that I don't pay attention to my body, that I don't track my cycles, my acne, my depression religiously, go over it ...

Hey hon! So glad to hear that your skin is being more manageable. I notice I am not on the org as much when my skin is clear... which is what I was hoping was going on for you. I'm so impressed by you...

Hey! I'm sorry that things haven't been better. Even though I see a naturopath, I still use Retin-A, I haven't been able to go completely holistic. I don't know if that helps you feel better, but mayb...

You are right, best not to mess with anything. It sounds like your doc is hitting it from all sides. I just mentioned it because it had been on my mind. I hope this week treats you better

Ugh, I am so sorry! I absolutely know how you feel. You don't deserve this, you are doing so well!   This might be a Hail Mary, and I don't know what I think about it, but I ran across this today...

What are CSA veggies? Do you use brussel sprouts or broccoli in them? The cruciferous veggies really help with estrogen dominance. Have you tried vitex? That's what my naturopath had me use to raise p...

That's exactly what I was doing, just taking a break so I could focus on something other than my skin. And it was doing better there for a few months, so I didn't feel the need to be on as much. That'...

Hey! I went AWOL from the org for a few months (some people here annoy the shit outta me), but I just caught up with your log. I relate to the feeling like you are doing everything right and still hav...

Hello, Just stumbled upon this forum as I was doing a bit of research on the natural progesterone cream I have been taking for the past 8 months or so. I have been prescribed this cream and have it m...

My progesterone is low still, that's why I have symptoms of estrogen dominance. To quote myself: estrogen dominance is actually progesterone deficiency. I never said progesterone counteracts xenoestro...

Wow! Thanks for updating. Did they say what kind of fungus? How can they tell if you have parasites? That's crazy!!   Thyroid and adrenal support seriously helped me, not as much with my skin, bu...

You definitely didn't understand my post. I was saying that I don't think xenoestrogens can be measured, so you may have higher estrogen than you know.It may be why your progesterone if off. Your est...

I actually think they can't measure estrogens produced by xenoestrogens. I'm not sure, of course, but I think it may be an entirely different estrogen than what is typically measured in labs. They hav...

So i just got back from my nutritional response testing session and it was one of the strangest things that i have EVER done. They put some gel on a belt type thing that they tie around your stomach. ...

instead of raising your progesterone, why not try reducing the bad estrogens in your body? I noticed while progesterogen helped some, it still broke me out with more inflamations around my mouth and t...

Just found this thread. I'm also gluten-free, no eggs, dairy (vegan), limited soy and a bunch of other things. I have been seeing a naturopath for the past 2 years (for depression and migraines). She ...

Yeah, many people found dim to be a temporary miracle. Did you read the dim thread I link to in the hormone section of my thread?   I did and I asked my Naturopath about it and she said she has...

could it be a gluten allergy? youre eating toast...   Read the whole thread, she cut out gluten a while ago.

Another update: Like I feared, the DIM/Broccoli isn't helping as much now. I keep breaking out on the apples of my cheeks, back and forth: 2 on the left side, then they heal, then 3 on the right side...

A tea store!? How perfect for you! Glad the BCP stoppage hasn't taken too much of a toll. I think you made a good choice!   Thanks! It's been great so far already, so many different kinds of t...

the discissions totally up to you, personally for me it was a waste of time, I spent almost $300 and then she wanted me to buy her book and her herbal teas and her creams, was going to come to just ov...

Seems like a crazy amount of money to spend for stuff you could do for yourself, but if you feel you can't, and you have the money, I don't see why not. It's important to note that most of us probably...

Looking good, Jennifer! I hope life is calming down for you I saw this recipe for a semi-homemade coconut milk shampoo and thought of you: Also, my skin has been so much better since I started ...
