yeah its a facebook group called sibo discussion/support group, bit of a clusterfuck but the occasional good information !
i'm thinking of looking into muscle testing. can they tell what hormone-y supplements are safe for someone to take ?
also yeah i have the same problem ! i use topical lugols and it dissappears within much much less than 24 hours. i heard part of that is evaporation, not absorption. in general i had been feeling better since i started using it, but then one day i added more onto my body before the last had dissapeared and felt extreme cold and since then i've generally been feeling colder than before. which made me kinda realize how risky it is to mess around with. i dont think i have hashimotos but i definitely think i have hypothyroidism and i would blame all the tofu and raw brassica veg i ate for just a couple years.
yikes this has really veered off the topic of NBE for which im totally sorry. i will say that when my progesterone was depleted before i knew that was happening to me, i noticed that was when i developped significantly widder/flabbier hips than i used to have. i dont even mind cause ive always wanted a bigger waist to hip ration, but it was an interesting surprise.
i think my big question is how high should i get my progesterone for it to begin to block 5-ar ? is it totally variable for everyone?
