Hi Isabelle,
Not sure if I do get enough iodine but scared to supp it..cause for 20 yrs I was hypothyroid with a goiter.. goiter went down after I was on meds..now I dont have any thyroid problems according to lab work as of last year.. Since taking the PM and Maca I am feeling better but last night I got a headache and the sides of my neck (glands) up to the base of my skull(pressure) felt swollen and tight ..hard time moving my neck (I was on the computer alot)...It started after eating very spicy mustard that burned my sinuses, I felt fine before that..or the supps and herbs are making my lymph system working harder..I dont drink as much fluids as I use to so I am going to drink more today and see how I feel.. my neck feels better but I did wake with the same pain and headache but not as bad and did take Ibpro and messaged my neck..it went away and my neck is just ever so slightly stiff..not that bad.. I didnt take a PM yet but I did take a maca about 2 hours ago..I havent sleep good the past 2 nights.. I did take a melatonin last night and it helped my headache some..going to take a nap soon..I feel tired but not like I have been feeling..its like if I took a nap I would feel great..I did drink a green mix drink when I had the headache and it helped just alittle I think but I did take the melatonin just right after the drink....I am thinking I may be slightly estrogen dom..cause I havent had a headache in months and I am on day 8 and according to your chart you made me I should be at my estrogen peak in 2-3 days..so Isabelle I am guessing that maybe I just dont need too much estrogen or I dont have enough progest.. I have been getting heart palpations lately too..also if your estrogen dom doesnt it effect thyroid (well just having unbalanced hormones will)..does estrogne make progesteron or is it the other way around, I know testos makes estrogen to some degree..I will take a PM tonight and see how I do..but I am going to take a melatonin either for my nap or a few hours after the PM later for tonight..Oh I did also break out that is also a estrogen dom and I think low estrog and progest.. too.. or thyroid.. so ..I think I am going to stop maca durning the next few days cause I perfer PM and I want the DHT inhibitor..now though high cortisol is from too much estrogen? and they say melatonin helps cortisol levels too..as for the prolactin they say you have to take alot of melatonin to effect it..and I am only going to use melatonin today and if I need it through this estrogen peak to help sleep, then stop..not going to use it regularly...sorry thinking and typing just about everything I am thinking.. ...ok done for now..
