Question about RU

[Jacknovell]

I ordered RU because i Want to try a cycle. Like the other 100mg the first day and the other days 50mg.

It arrived yesterday But in the package there is One pill RU and 4 other small Pulks. What are these and do i need to take them too?

Thank you very much for your Support

 

[Jacknovell]

I have seen that the 4 pills are misoprostol. But do I need to take these too for my RU cycle?

 

[joekool]

NO! lol... do not take the extra pills... the Large RU pill should be broken up for your cycle... the small pills remains untouched and unused

Try a longer cycle if u can. Most people did was about a week or so. If you can do two or three weeks on they may work way better.

@Helen thinks RU can work better if on it long enough

Have dopamine agonist in hand.

I just finished a three day cycle last week. Now that I am 4-5 days out from the end of the three day cycle, I can definitely say that I felt better while on RU. Granted, hair shedding increased as a result of the RU, but I felt better, had less anxiety, and I think shrinkage may have lessened a little while on RU. However, now that I am off, I am back to my typical PFS/PAS self again.

Can you remind me what RU is supposed to do for us? Is it resetting certain receptors?

Also, I thought we were supposed to feel worse on RU and wait for improvements via the snapback. My experience seems to be the opposite. What does this mean?

I felt better on it too. I did 10 days with the last day when I woke up with the best morning wood in ages.

RU is a progesterone killer. Wipes it out of a female's body to abort a fetus. That wiping of prog should help us refresh our receptors which I believe happened somewhat. It's possible a longer cycle or multiple cycles are needed. Unfortunately, I didn't do that but I still have 4 boxes so who knows what I may do after my next two ideas.

Thanks for the response. I may go on another cycle later then...probably a longer cycle. Although I think I remember reading in one of the threads that we should be using progesterone cream after the RU cycle. Is that correct? Also, should I be doing something during the RU cycle to combat hair shedding?

It blocks cortisol and lowers progesterone. So when you come off you are more sensitive to cortisol and prog upregulates. It really doesnt matter how you feel on cycle just afterwards is key. I did it for about a week and a couple days in I felt great as time when one my metabolism started slowing down since progesterone is tanking which will lower metabolism. If you feel good temporarily after coming off it that is a good sign, but if it doesnt last, longer cycle is probably required so receptors can adjust fully.

This is what we are testing with anavar now since anavar also blocks cortisol and AR

I wouldn't take prog after it nor worry about the shed. I didn't when I cycled off

@Helen @Herman @joekool
Since ending my RU cycle, my hair shedding has gone into overdrive and it seems to worsen each day. Today, my entire head tingles constantly, almost like there is a mild electric current constantly going through the scalp. The hair loss is dramatic.
What did RU do to cause the dramatic increase in hair loss?
Can I stop this hair loss?

 

[joekool]

Wow @Minime I have not experienced anything along those lines from RU... I can't imagine what part did that but I wouldn't mess with anything to stop it... I'm so focused on trying to fix my sexual issues that I would trade the cure for my hair now ...

I don't have any good advice but wait it out... I wouldn't do anything at all, not a 5ar, not minox, nothing man... maybe it's not as bad as it seems because you just notice it since you're focused??

Anything else improve at the moment???

Man, if you have hashimoto. Ru turned off your progesterone. and you run low on potassium.

Just wait it out until progesterone recovers. You took 100mg dosages it will be out in weeks.

If you are desperate and cant handle it or gonna try to use something crazy like minox or 5ar. just use progesterone. Please dont use any of that crazy stuff.

If you have hashimoto , progesterone was raised to compensate your zero thyroid. action.

And also @Minime , progesterone post RU has benefitted several of us including myself and @Jack17 . You may need a dopamine agonist as well to help here. I liked mucuna pruriens best.

Thanks for the guidance. The RU dosages I took were approximately 10mg each (difficult to determine exact dosage but I’m guessing somewhere between 5mg-10mg).

Yes, I have hashimoto’s, but my last set of labs showed progesterone was not elevated. I have strange labs in that everything is within range except for estrogen which is high.

Thanks for the response!

I tried to find l dopa after my RU protocol but could not find it. Now I’m nervous to try it given some recent posts I read on this forum. I’ll look into progesterone. Thanks!

Do you know your cortisol, acth, insulin glucose levels ? Probably cortisol, acth,histamine and insulin are high and glucose low, beacuse as I see the problem, hashimoto is only sign of problem, inflamation in your body. That's why in few days you should start taking vit b1 + b2, beacuse your main weapon against inflamation -antiinflamatory oxidant glutathione will start doing it's job.

Took 3x17mg of RU. It made me feel worse during and after taking it. No bouce back.
My progesterone levels got HIGHER after using RU.
Speaking for myself - it wasn't a good choice.
