Thanks!
This is such a complicated illness/ disorder....I continue to believe this protocol offers a (possible) path to recovery but there are pitfalls that need to be identified and addressed along the way. I feel compelled to use RU or Ella but it's unclear if that's the right thing to do. The first three times I felt a boast from it and good results from the subsequent progesterone cycle. In fact the second time I used RU 25mg for 3 days, I felt 110% of normal. I felt completely normal to better than normal. This dropped on fourth day, I believe from the rising Prolactin. This last time only took <10mg (est) of RU and then progesterone. I felt no benefit with this cycle. I think taking too much progesterone or taking too long or not giving a long enough break between cycles will likely have a neg effect. We are seeking something to reset the normal process; to fix what ever has been damaged or reset in a negative and persistent state. We know that progesterone typically will decrease libido in normal men. For us, it can help but you have to consider that at the same time there can be a potential for worsening of symptoms. There could be a regimen that will help stimulate the resetting process but over or under doing it will cause no benefit. So for now I believe that you have to keep the dose 5mg or less. Make sure you take enough time off between cycles to bounce back and control prolactin. Still not sure where RU/ Ella fits in. Except for a couple minor few day set backs, I have benefitted from this protocol for the past 2.5 months.
