Restoring hormone levels

**TheTroglodyte** · 10-11-2002, 02:49 PM

I know this is kind of an odd question but I hope that someone will have some info on this. I took propecia for 2 months and noticed a severe loss in libido and sperm count. I know that propecia raises testosterone levels as well as estrogen and I am assuming it is the raise in estrogen that has caused the side effects. I've been off for about 1 week now and I seem to be returning to normal however I was wondering if there was anything I could take like Clomid to speed up the process? I've heard that it has taken some people as long as 6 months to return to fully normal so any advice is welcome.

Hmmmm....

If you think it is the high estrogen, then an anti-e should do the trick... clomid, novla, etc. I don't think you really need that stuff though. Try some tribilius @ 1000 mg a day for a few weeks.

Tribilius is over the counter. Maybe ZMA too

If you want to restore hormone regulation, you need to take Essential fatty acids, note the essential and if you are not supplimenting them you are probally deficent.... you need to take the full spectrum of efa for hormone req, 3,6,9 to get the full spec you would need to take sups like....

cold-pressed flax oil
evening primrose oil
borage oil

But you would also need to take co-factors eg..Lecithin &
Zinc without these, hormone regulation would not happen, these are the catalyst and nothing would happen without these. Efa will also help with liver function, acne, dirty blood..etc etc etc.
