Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Since I have been taking the vitamins/glandulars and Armour my breast size has increased enormously as has my weight. This morning when I woke up, my breasts hurt so much. I have never experienced so much pain in my breasts. The only things that can be causing this are the supplements or the Armour. Since it is all related I wanted to find out what is causing this. My doctor had a hair analysis done and the company designed a supplement regime (theirs) that included vitamins, glandulars etc.... The products that contain glandulars that I am taking: 1)Adrenal Complex that besides vitamins includes: Adrenal Concentrate (Bovine) 80mg Betaine ? 20mg 2)Para -Pack a multi vitamin, mineral and glandular formula Aside from the vitamins and other ingredients the glandulars are " Adrenal Concentrate (bovine) 5mg Pituitary concentrate (bovine) 5mg parotid concentrate (bovine) 5mg I am also taking HCL Plus that contains Pepsin with Ox Bile. All the products contain Betain The bottles say " take 1 tablet 3x a day " but they have me taking 2 tablets 3x a day. Can these be the cause of my breast swelling & pain and my weight increasing? Can they increase the production of estrogen? Where can I find information on the effects of glandulars? And how can I reverse the effects? I am over this and am ready to throw in the towel. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Breast tenderness and increased size are caused by one thing, ESTROGEN. Progesterone will help balance this no matter the source. I know nothing of your supplements except Armour. Armour does not cause breast tenderness or enlarging. If you cannot find the source for estrogen that your body is getting it may be that one of the glandulars is stimulating it in some way, but you will need to do research on the glandular products to see which has this side effect. Armour has been around for so many years it's effects and possible effects are well known and published. This is not one of them I have read anywhere. Nor have I experienced it even taking 7 grains a day. *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Fat cat? Diabetes?

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 you could also be getting estrogen as a phytoestrogen - like the ones found in soy. There are other sources as well - like some common plastics. -Anne > Breast tenderness and increased size are caused by one thing, ESTROGEN. Progesterone will help balance this no matter the source.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 I used to have very sore breasts and two things I found that worked very well before I started using progesterone cream were Vit E 400iu x twice a day and extra B6 - at least 100mcg in addition to a multi B Lynda (in the UK) Looking for info. Since I have been taking the vitamins/glandulars and Armour my breast size has increased enormously as has my weight. This morning when I woke up, my breasts hurt so much.
