andrographis and progesterone production

[Guest guest]

I can't help you TOO much since I haven't had THAT problem as yet. LOL.

However, you might try taking Stephania Root instead of Andro.

I read in Healing Lyme that andrographis inhibits progesterone

production. Is there a way to counterbalance that effect? I'm

entering peri-menopausal years and need to use natural progesterone

cream to help with the symptoms of PMS. Am concerned that

andrographis could make the PMS worse. Anyone with experience with

this? Thanks, Jackie

I am interested in taking andrographis but I have to ask this

question: In Buhner's book he states under side effects and

contraindications of andrographis: inhibits progesterone production. I

am in my early 40s and am already low in progestrone, I use natural

progestrone cream every day to help with PMS symptoms at the end of

the month. Would the andrographis make it worse? Any experience with

this? Thanks for your response.
