Wanderer, "what up dawg?" (as some of my "clients" say). On my lightening
fast trips lately through the cyberworld, I saw you dropping in here and was
glad to see you were still here and sharing with all.
I use DIM-plus from N101.com. I have probaly used 5 or 6 different brands
over the last couple of years, and settled on this because it gave the same
results and cost the least. I order 6 bottles at a time, and cost with
shipping on the last batch was $108.22. There are 120 capsules in each
bottle, and I take two a day on the norm, skipping a day every now and then
when I feel the libido is down.
My wife also suffers from high estrogens, and she started on it as an
experiment about 8 months ago. the rsults were dramatic. She had been
dragging as, very emotional, no energy, so we had some tests run at the docs
and found her FSH level was next to zero. More tests and we found the high
E2 level, so she jumped on board.
I take it with food, as recommended, usually with breakfast.
You know, I have to disagree with ernestnolan's contention (sorry ernest)
that T doesn't do anything for libido, it certainly did for me. However,
there are those days that I have no libido and don't get the spotaneous
erections. I attribute this to a combination of E's, stressful work, and
being over 50.
On the other hand, the wife and I did the wild thing 3 times in 8 hours one
day last week. Jeez, I haven't done that since my teens. Don't think I want
to again, either ;-)
Yeah, I wish this E control thing was a litle more precise, like the T
injections, but I guess I'm bitching about nothing.
As a rule, Wanderer, I always use the DIM the first few days after
injection, maybe all week, and if I skip any, it's always toward days 5 & 6.
Hope your world is sunny.
Muerta
