yup. now, I've always had irregular periods, but i was working with my ND to fix that. Taking Chaste Tree Berry, as PeteZa mentioned, and Pro-Gest cream for low progesterone- now all that is as specifically recommended by my ND for my hormone test results, I wouldn't tell you what to throw at it.
For a while, things looked like they were getting regular, although every 3 weeks instead of 4. Then they just stopped. didn't change treatment, everything just stopped improving.
Same with my thyroid- natural supplements brought me back from a 4.8 TSH... feeling good... then Lyme went and messed it all up again. I'm supposed to ask my doctor to prescribe Nature Throid or Armour- does anyone have experience with that? it would replace my naturopathic attempts, bc I'm on 4 a day of Thyrocsin by Thorne (B vits, iodine, E, zinc, L-Tyrosine, ashwafandha, etc) and it has stopped improving.
BabsBunny I'm on NatureThroid for about
3 weeks now. I don't remember my exact numbers, but I don't remember them being terrible-terrible. My freezing feet seemed to be the reason my LLMD put me on it. I honestly can't tell if it's helping. Yesterday I had an amazing day (first in months), but I also just started Valtrex and a meditation (that works) to keep my blood pressure in check. Who knows. I'd love to get off the NatureThroid at some point. With sooooo many supplements, it's really hard to tell what works unless you get immediate results and that's not always the case. Anyway, I don't think the NatureThroid is hurting ;)
