girlfriday29: My libido has always been high since I was young and I blame it on the amount of androgen in my body. I think because of that I have few 'manly' characteristics like hairy arms, legs and some above my lips, thin, boyish when I was younger and washboard chest.
When I was on herbs last time it is not a really pleasant experience, maybe the androgen in my body and the phytoestrogen are fighting to be hook with the limited receptors I got. But when I am on BO and that if the month dosage is right I will get few symptoms like tingle and itchy breasts throughout the cycle, extreme high libido on the 2nd part of the cycle that will keep me up all night (can't sleep), hunger pangs and soreness of course when it is growing.
This days I will only take DIM-plus 3 pills a week I divided it. I am so glad that with this minimum dosage I still able to keep my menstrual on check and the pain away. The minimum dosage though aren't able to help me with my extreme mood swing though. LOL!
