Re: iodine and estrogen/adrenal supplements

[Guest guest]

Christa,

I have had several reports of what you describe, that women need more estrogen after starting to absorb iodine. But it seems to be temporary.

Then, eventually, their estrogen need appears to DROP WAY DOWN and they feel great on a fraction of what they were taking and can even skip days. The same thing happened to me so I can understand your experience.

But I sure would like to know what's actually happening to the receptors, thyroid, etc.

Hello All:Late summer I have started bio-identical hormone therapy and one month ago started Iodine supplements. I have also been taking adrenal supplements. Since starting the Iodine, I have noticed that I have had to more than double my estrogen dose, and my adrenal supplements. Any info on why that may be? thanks,Christa
