I have some PM cream on order, it shouldn't take too much longer to get here. It claims to contain extracts of other herbs, but didn't say which ones. Before I use it, I'll thoroughly research the other ingredients. Could be just the base for the cream though.

I almost always research thoroughly all ingredients in anything I use that's multi-ingredient. It's a good rule of thumb. When I fail at this I always regret it later.

I took your advice and tracked down some PM pills. I saved the link and I'll wait to see how I react to the cream. Unfortunately, this may replace my plan of using the wild cream I had a good reaction too (or I'll just use one during my morning massage and the other at night. Here's where the internal would come in if it seems to work topically). I seem to recall PM being an herb that must be cycled. Taken after ovulation through to before menstruation. Am I correct?

The only real rule is to not take it during menstruation. Exactly when to stop, when to start again, etc, all seem to be dependent mostly on the individual.

I received the red clover yesterday and I took one this morning after a massage with the wild yam. I got slight pain in my left nipple. That was odd. No swelling either :/ (Maybe the fenugreek from my last plan was the cause of that?) My left breast is about a half an inch bigger than the right. I massaged the right a little longer in attempt to even them out. (I also told my boyfriend to give his attention to that one during 'sexy time'. If he actually listens, that extra stimulation may help the evenness too haha!)

You might not respond to the weaker herbs, and RC is kinda somewhere between. It's not as weak as soy or flax, but it's not as powerful as PM for estrogen or even WY for progesterone, and PC of course has actual progesterone and can't be compared to anything else.

Since both estrogen and progesterone are intertwined, having a 'seesaw' effect, I wonder if I should work on raising both of them at the same time, with more focus on the latter.

I actually seesaw my supplement plan to try to reproduce the effect...

But it'll depend on your specific needs and exactly how low you are when of each hormone. If your problem is having overly deep valleys, you need to even those out, but if you're not having big enough peaks, you need to amp them up and do a seesaw effect.

If it's BOTH, then see-saw but don't do so quite as sharply.
