Dear surferjoe,
I don't know E hormone.
I think I'm the one of the only women who don't respond to Estrogen.
people say E is the key. But too much E isn't good for NBE.
I "never" experienced swelling in my follicular phase.
Even I experienced shrinking very much after E taking.
I had tried PM 250mg per 1 day, before.
that is a very small dose. But I got more acne, shorter cycle, hormonal imbalance, more areola's hair, etc.
And spearmint tea wasn't good at me. Herbs, either.
I ALWAYS didn't see any results in the follicular.
Sometimes I could see little effects in the luteal.
But ALWAYS that went to shrinking after menstruation starting.
Why do you think is the reason this is happening to me?
How do I know the right amont for me?
I'm upset about it.
Every time I used a way to increase estrogen, I shrank.
Even the more estrogens were increased, the more they shrank.
But, I have suffered PCOS! It is because of higher T and lower E. I don't think I have insulin resistance.
I'm so tired ....
