Hi Jomomma,

Thank you for sharing your improvements. It is helpful for those of us without diagnoses yet to have other information to consider.

Christel Jackson shared about hormones a little over a year ago. She recommended a book by John Lee "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Premenopause." I read it, and it talks about hormone balances such as these. Especially estrogen dominance.

I asked my doctor if it was appropriate to test my hormone levels. My thyroid's been checked many times and it's okay. But my doctor wouldn't test me for estrogen/progesterone, saying as long as I was having regular periods, I couldn't possibly be having an estrogen dominance problem. Christel was having missed cycles. Is it too personal to ask if you are still of menstruating age, and do you have a regular cycle?
