I tried before and didn’t work.
Do you use glycine powder or capsules?
Interesting
Glad to hear it’s working for you.
Can you recommend a good source ?

Hey “5-alpha-victim”
What brand do you use for the GLYCINE?
I get mine from Idealabs and they call it Progestene. I put about 8 drops at the back of the neckalong the spine, and thus far its working pretty well.

Awesome
There is an old cycling progesterone trial thread somewhere on here . I believe fin truth and lightattheend both had at least some success with cycling Progesterone. Maybe we can bring that thread back to life .
Do you know how long you will be staying on it for?

I think you should try it low dose…being on this forum for a while and studying things myself…what I have figured out is what works for one person, doesnt for another, what cured another person, the same supplement etc made another person feel worse…i plan to stay on it until I see my test results in the next couple weeks or until I start to feel kts notmwprking anymore…but its a natural hormone your bosy produces…so were just upping up the bio marker

If I’m recalling fintruth’s thread correctly he felt bad on the progesterone cycles and got better after coming off the cycles on the snap back . Same with lightattheend if I’m remembering correctly. They felt bad while on it and got better and better in between the cycles. I’ll have to link that thread in here

Here is the thread . Of course it’s over one thousand posts long haha that need to be read through to get the results of the handful of individuals who cycled progesterone
Well I have noticed
- Stronger libido
- No brain fog
- More motovation
- More calm and less stressed
- overall better well being
- More confident
I beleive the benefits is coming from increasing Allopregnenalone, as we are pissing high amounts out…the low dose supplementation of progesterone could be keeping the Allopregnenalone at optimal levels…basically propping Allopregnenalone up
Yes I get mine from Idealabs and they call it Progestene

Ohh nice
Idealabs I’m familiar with . That’s the lab in Washington, DC that sold the 5a-DHP

Interesting thought…
The benefit could be from more Allopregnanolone if it’s all being excreted out. So the progesterone converts to 5a-DHP via 5AR and then the 5a-DHP converts to Allopregnanolone via 3a-HSD and you feel better. Do any other sexual sides other then generalized libido issues not get improved for you while on progesterone?
Also your urine Allopregnanolone when you had that test done was midrange. Not flagged high or highish. Your 3a-diol was flagged high. Will be interesting to see what your new test results look like. Will you stay on progesterone for that test?
So you do good on the progesterone cycle. Opposed to bad on the progesterone cycle and good after coming off the progesterone cycle like finatruth.
I wonder if someone who’s currently flagged high or who has highish Allopregnanolone in the urine would also do good on progesterone. Or if they would do bad on cycle like finatruth and then better on the “SnapBack” after coming off

My gut feeling tells me they were on to high a dose. When i first tried it a few years ago. i think i was doing 60mg a day…the first 4-5 days I felt fantastic…then i felt like shit…very bad… so If we put two and two together my guess would be they were on a high dose as I felt very bad after those 4-5 days…so it seems it built up in the system then just overloaded from to much. I take only about 14-15mg and im about couple months in and the positive feelongstill remain…dose is just as important as the supplement itself…my adivce would be start low dose maybe 5 mg…then increase by 5mg every 4-5 days until you feel the benefits…if your pissing out high Allopregnenalone…Progesterone would be the first thing I would try as to keep your allo levels in balance.

Yes thats them. I also used 5a-dhp for a year then I started feeling like shit…i think becuase i was not supplementing the upstream hormone progesterone. Same as testosterone…first you will feel great but if you dont also supplement the upstream hormones then the testosterone will eventually make you crash…thats whay Dr Mark Gordon says.

Yes I stayed on Progesterone while taking the test. The results should be here in the next couple weeks. Also im testing the cytokine panel inflammation…progesterone and many others…ive also added electrolytes as when I work all day and sweat…i feel worse at the end of the day…but if I have a gatorade after then I feel better.
I beleive most people feel bad on the prgesterone is possibly dosing, source, or application site. Progesterone is undervalued here in my opinion.

Order 1 bro…see how you react…based on your high Allopregnenalone pissing it out…i think progesterone you will find some releif and lot of benefit.
Try low dose progesterone…start 5mg, then work your way up 5 mg every 4-5 days.
