When you tested, it must have been when your hormones were declining since you started your period 2 days later.
I believe still, you need to raise your hormones (what tested low) to balance them out. But you need to choose what will work best for your body. What did you take before to have these short cycles? Were you doing nbe?
I would test my prolactin and thyroid next. I would recommend glandular therapy if doing it by yourself and cant afford and endo.
I would look into strengthening your ovarian function and nourish that pituitary/thyroid/adrenals.
I would consider the following to balance out your hormones:
Maca
Low dose BO
supplemental Progesterone (cream)
superior omega 3
a low dose antiandrogen
You are going to have to study more to ,make your decision, Its just what I would consider if it were me.
Hi tibetan, thanks for your advice. I'll have to read up about testing my prolactin, and maybe save up for the thyroid panel. For now I'll definitely be doing more research on herbs.
And I have actually done 0 herbal/hormone-related NBE so far. I got a suction device recently, but the only thing I've done until now is massage with flax oil. I just take multivitamins + omega 3 occasionally, so nothing that should be messing with my hormones at all, not sure why all of a sudden I started having very consistent short cycles. Does that change your perspective at all?
That is just very strange. I wouldnt think the supps would cause them to shorten. I would flax oil is known to be estrogenic. I get hot flashes even with the seeds. So who knows, could it be a topical issue? I would try a test with a topical estrogen for days 6 to 12 and then pc, cycling it (start using it on day 13 to 26 to see if this lengthens it. Just something to try.
