Re: progesterone creams /numbness

[Guest guest]

Wonderful post Duncan. One thing I have noticed when I do too much progesterone

cream in a numbness in the area of the clitoris. Just one day of a reduced dose

and it is gone. I am wondering if you or anyone else on the list know what that

is all about?

Thanks,

Donna

Donna,

Rather than progesterone cream, try taking 25 mg of pregnenelone & 50 mg

DHEA instead. Your body can convert them, and progesterone, back & forth

into each other as needed. But, taken this way, allows your body to

better make the decisions of which hormones to manufacture. Then, you

shouldn't experience imbalances like the one you mentioned.

Hi Jim, I used to take pregnenolone until it started to make my heart pound

everytime I took it. I haven't tried it for a few months but I am hesitant to

do so again.

Thanks

Donna,

Did you take DHEA with it? They are supposed to be taken together. And,

what doses did you take?

No I didn't take the dhea with it. I took small doses. 20 mgs I think.

Is there a dhea that you think is better than another? Also, for a woman what

would be a normal low dose. I always over respond so I am asking for the low

dose.

Thanks Jim

I am signing off for the weekend, I will look for your response on Monday.

Bye

______________________

When I use the cream I become dizzy and my nose runs constantly.

I was diagnosed in '95 with high progesterone when I had lost

about half of my hair. The doctor gave me a pill to block it.

Well, it did but almost killed me so I went on a juicing program

with lots of green powders and mostly raw diet...no junk at all.

It took 8 months but my hair grew back and thick. I have just started

using the natural estogen cream plus coral calcium which is helping me

sleep much better. I do realize that I am probably the exception to the

rule. I have many post menopausal friends that use the P. cream with great

success.

Hi Donna,

Common sense and your own words would say you are using " too much " . Again

your own words, " just one day of reduced dose and it is gone " . Simple

solution: reduce dosage to meet you individual, unique needs.

Donna,

Both should be in a low dose. DHEA about 50 mg & pregnenelone 25. I've

seen some blends adjusted for men & women with a low-dose attitude &

co-factors. Look for one of them in the HFS.

Hi Gail. That part is easy to figure out. What I want to know is the

chemistry. Why does it do that? Is it that the dose is too high or that I

need to add something like dhea. I would like to understand this because I

notice wonderful benefits from increased dose, which, by the way is not high,

and increased dose for me is an average dose for most women.

Anyway. I would like to understand it. What is the reason that higher amounts

causes numbness. Is it neurological? Or what.

Thanks,

Donna

Donna,

You ask a good question. And, one that allows me to get on a soap box

for a second: We of the alternative medical school of thought often wax

feverishly, when not eloquently, about the allopathic school and its

proponents -- and rightly so!

But, your question highlights one of the kinds of thing they are

fantastic at, and we got squat: quantifying, and describing the

mechanics of specific bodily functions, conditions & ailments. They may

not know what to do about it, but they can often identify it! In this

case, they know what to do about it.

If you are passionate about getting your questions answered, I have a

recommendation for you. Dr. , at the Hilton Head Longegity

Center. He can do telephone consultations with you & /or your doctor. In

the longevity specialty, take a saliva test from you and measure 7-11

hormones, not just one or two. They only need blood to test for growth

hormone.

Then, from the results, after reading your 10-page patient history and

talking to you for 30-50 minutes on the phone, the doctor prescribes a

hormone cream made at a compounding pharmacy in his town, unless you

have one. It costs about $1 a day, or less. About the same as an

over-the-counter one-size-fits-all cream! And, Dr. specifies

vegetable sources for hormones wherever possible! The whole thing costs

about $350-450, and if you get a referral, can be submitted to

insurance..

Talking to Dr. is like talking to a friend from the get-go! And,

his patients can email him! Can you believe that? Further, he answers

you, too! I was impressed!

Anyone interested can contact him at:
