Hi Ladies,

I should clarify, some women need help restoring estrogen (e.g. ovarian failure) thus supplementing with HRT. With longer periods ovulation is delayed, or not occurring (anovulation). Some variations might be responsible, e.g. environmental toxins, stress, smoking, thyroid issues, poor sleep, diet, etc. 

Nefertiddy, how long is your menstruation?. Can you share recent blood tests?, it would help knowing what LH and FSH are doing during your cycle. Btw, taking Flaxseed is healthy but...it TANKS NBE. Flaxseed inhibits aromatase, meaning it lowers estrogen. Flaxseed contains a substance called enterolactone, and this substance will cause breasts to deflate. In fact, there's a thread or two on this forum that women reported using Flaxseed deflated their breasts. Here's just a few research studies explaining it.

Sweets, that's cool, I'm learning too. Thanks for the kind words. I want to look over your blood tests again for the same reason as Nefertiddy's, do you have a english version?. " alt="" title="">

I´m going to get my hormone levels checked but it might take some time since I have just moved and I'm still waiting to to get registered in the country. Can't get health care until registered. But will do as soon as possible! Feels like playing a guessing game until then.

I am currently not on any herbs but; zink, magnesium, collagen and omega3. But it is true flax seemed to increase my body hair like crazy..! Especially since I didn't apply any pro-aromastase at that time.

My period is 3-4 days long.

About the hormone test btw, is there an optimal cycle day to get tested?

Hey Nefer!

Yes, day 2 or day 3 of your period. Here in Spain the test is called "third day test".
