can you explain how adding Androgen further silence the siganls and make matters worse? not sarcastic just curious.
Boston , can you briefly explain what awor’s theory is, about adding androgens makes symptoms worse??
You said you fixed your energy levels and temperature through a combination of pregnenelone and adrenal support. What are you using for adrenal support?
Applying progesterone cream just shrunk my weiner. I didnt even “test it out”. Looked disgusting.
Hoping to get back to my “new normal”. This stuff revived a bad memory of crashing.
I tried to post in the members story section but don’t have time to fill in the form right now so I will post here also to be sure this will be noticed.
I’m very interested in progesterone and have ordered a cream that are due to arrive any day now.
I have read that some of you are getting worse when starting progesterone and I have found these texts, about estrogen dominance in the beginning of progesterone treatment, that may explain why some feel worse:

progesteronetherapy.com/just … z2IMFGT5UG
After using progesterone for a few weeks you are supposed to feel better according to the texts.
I’m mostly interested in progesterone because of its ability to balance adrenaline and other stress related substances that I think is a part of why I have got sexual problems.
I have also ordered Iodine that I will use together with progesterone.
Any updates on people who have used this Progesterone/Test combo? Or even Progesterone on its own?
Also remember that if you’re using prog based on LITE’s success, you need to take selegeline as well. I would wager that’s the more important of the two anyway.
Has anyone else used progesterone cream?
Boosting progesterone seems to have a major impact on neurological symptoms for pfs.
The 5adhp supplementers report positive effects.
Hcg boosts progesterone which seems to help neuro symptoms.
The question is how to supplement with progesterone and not get bad sides from it.
Would using an AI alongside work to keep down the Estrogen?
It’s hard for to get any replys here these days:(
tried HCG took one shot at 250 trying to follow the latest protocol and found myself overwhelmed from it not in a good way. I think I’m one of those cases that doesn’t respond well to hormones.
I had Confusion , bad headache , dizziness.
Followed by ups and downs and hormonal waves mostly high estrogen I’m assuming. Then two weeks after my first dose ,( I didn’t take anymore hcg after) just wanted to see if i would return to baseline which I eventually did I didn’t feel it was safe to push through and continue on with the protocol but I did have an amazing couple of days after all the ups and downs which I felt recovered mentally and I feel like it was the boost in progesterone, which i found is what could happen from this link. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4363154/ Then I crashed after , with for sure high e sides which were worst than the first. And that wore off now I’m back to baseline, 3 weeks later, with some minor improvements but could be fading quickly.
I’m working with a hormone replacement therapist and initially they said to take an AI with my treatment, which i neglected to from hearing about horror stories here. I was suppose to take half a 5mg AI pill once a week and two doses of hcg a week at 500. If I took the AI I’m wondering if I would just feel the benefits of progesterone.
I’m wondering basementdweller how hcg and testosterone is working for you and do you take an AI with your treatment.
