RU + Progesterone Cycle (PFS, PSSD)

[Chapman]

Edit post 19/07/18 Prog protocol

I would get topical progesterone and make sure it doesn't have any saw palmetto in it. Get Ella online. There are several references on this board. Consider taking (small dose) Ella 5mg or less for 3 days then wait 5 days ( until it's out of your system) and then start progesterone topically 5mg to scrotum ( I know that sounds weird but there's a reason for it.) Do progesterone for 7 - 10 days then stop for 7 days then consider restarting progesterone for 7 days. You can re dose Ella after a couple rounds of Ella. You will have to control Prolactin especially with the Ella. People do that different ways. You can get L dopa online or you can get prescription Selegiline or Caber. Caber is more potent. Good luck

I guess it is a good idea to Always check it before.
Cortisol should be checked by saliva, I know blood cortisol test is not usefull.

Thanks for the advice Wuf. I'll start a log once I have the results.

I like low dose. Like 5-10mg a day and taper off after 14 day or so cycle.

This is how “light at the end”, “elb”, “beekay”, and “stomper1” recovered from pfs. All on propeciahelp forum or solvepfs.

Post-RU cycle, I first tried 20mg of prog a day for 4 days to no effect reallly. Then I moved to 7mg a day and saw great effects.

I literally just posted something about this!! On the same wave length here!

How long after RU?? How long have you been on it? I'm considering restarting the regimen too. Do you use topical or pill? Do you use something to help keep Prolactin from going up? What other supplements are you taking with it?

Go to my log- I posted it in mid December when I did it. Lol just search “ru/prog” up on search bar. I’ve been writing about it a lot lately as I plan on running it this weekend/next week.

 

[Jack17]

Just read your log. Great posts. Sounds like you have had very good results with RU and progesterone. I just finished RU last Wednesday for three days at 10mg a day. I think I should start progesterone now. What do you think. Are you using oral or topical? ( I have a supple of topical) I think I might have been taking too much Caber and that's why I didn't feel as much of an effect from RU.

 

[bruschi11]

Topical applied to prostate, testicle, rectum area. I used the stuff from ideallabsdc.com , haidut’s stuff.

Okay. I just started to Biovea topical progesterone. I attempted to use half a pump and I think that's 10mg. I am 6 days off RU. Have you restarted Progesterone yet? Were you going to do an RU cycle before starting Progesterone? I sure hope this helps...I also just purchased the Betaine HCL from Amazon and will start that on Friday. Thanks for you help!!

Doesn't that one sting a bit on the testes?

lol now it would (dueto having surgery on them 2.5 weeks ago.) But no it doesn’t sting really at all.

You get the best absorption down there. “Light at the end” used this method. He actually preferred rectum actually lol but that whole area I think is best.

When did you start noticing a benefit from the progesterone? Do you think Inositol should be added. I read your post and I think you may already take it??

 

[bruschi11]

No I only take it during these cycles to help curb prolactin.

I made two little cicles of progesgerone. 4daysx1mg during the taking days I felt less cortisol, I also felt that music sound better, also good sleep. 2 days after giving it up I felt some emotions coming back long time forgotten. I was feeling very ok but I took one licorice root after last cycle, and everything went wrong I notices some very low cortisol issues and some gayness thinking crossed my mind for one month after it, Im afraid to touch that again.. never happened me before at it have subside, very strange! Im looking for Ella now that does the contrary.

 

[Rid]

licorice root turns you gay confirmed


but all jokes aside, that sucks. it seems like if you can put this stuff in your body without it crashing, then you improve your baseline significantly, however if you go overboard and crash it can set you back. I never take lic when I feel at all compromised. It definitely weakens you, but it sets you up to bounce back.

Haha @Rid.
I felt like that was in poor taste what you said @BeLikeWater, although someone may have said something unbecoming to someone the other day.

That was funny though Rid. Are you saying @BeLikeWater that it made you have homoerotic ideation? Or that thinking itself is a homosexual activity. I'm just wondering. I'm not a social justice warrior nor am I gay, nor do I have a problem with them. Possibly you're saying it's a setback. Anyways, carry on. I don't want to have pfs, my other issues, and a boyfriend. They're even more high maintenance than girls anyways. Just remember everyone - it's not gay if it's a power thing.
Just ask the Catholic Church.

The low dose cycle sounds interesting as well. Has anyone tried the high dose cycle mentioned in protocol thread (the one in tubZy's sig), 100 - 200mg for a week?

 

[Jack17]

Started Progesterone 10mg yesterday. Already feeling it. Today strong morning wood and more sensitive and warm as it was more numb and cold for couple weeks. Hope things continue to improve. I think one of my set backs for February was that I was taking too much caber and that is probably getting out of my system. Hard to say for sure but definitely feel better today. Planning to do this for 14 days then off for 4 days then back on. Wonder if a break with RU between cycles would be wise.

 

[bruschi11]

I’m going to be running an RU 3 day, prog/inositol 7-10 day cycle beginning on Monday or Tuesday this coming week.

I didn’t write in this thread earlier, but when I originally did RU prolactin was definitely an issue. Which I solved with metergoline but it gave fatigue. Hoping high dose 20g dosing of inositol can curb prolactin this time around.

Will see how I feel on prog and of fatigue persists on it. I know ru will fatigue me quite a bit but prog might not to a major degree. We’ll see.

I’m expecting a good bump in sexuality and hopefully it just helps balance me going forward in terms of the “pfs imbalance”. Looking forward to mineral balancing with Wilson’s ARL recommendations after this run.
