I can't seem to understand the dosages of the pills that I got.
I have 2 brands of Kudzu root:
1.) Nature's Way, 613 mg per capsule
In each capsule:
Kudzu root (Pueraria Lobata) 463 mg
Kudzu root extract (Pueraria Lobata, 1 mg daidzin) 150 mg
2.) Solaray, Kudzu extract, 150 mg (says on the bottle)
Amount per capsule:
Kudzu root (Pueraria lobata) 165 mg
Kudzu root extract ( 2% (3mg) daidzin) 150 mg
I don't understand how high concentration of the herb is in the second brand, since it is an extract and higher percentage of daidzin (3 mg rather than 1 mg).
I've been drinking Kudzu tea for 3 weeks and now it's my follicular phase, so I though it's time to ramp up the doses (was supposed to start at 1100 mg and get to 2500 mg of Kudzu over 2 months).
Hopefully, Wen or somebody can help me with that.

Oh my. Yeah..what you've written, could be downright CONFUSING. Basically, don't worry about the daidzin- it's just part of the KRoot. It's been linked in some studies as a help for lessening effect of hangovers. So if you were after that help, the more the better. The 2nd one, the total dose has to be a typo.
For simplicity's sake ~1100mg= 2 caps for Nature's way (1226mg) and for Solary this is 4 caps (315*4= 1260). Personally, I'd get more Nature's Way when the time come's again --> Take less pills.
Hope this helps!

Kudzu root- 1,541 mg a day
Damiana- about 800 mg
Multivitamin- 2 pills (says to take 2 on the bottle)
Had a deflation after my period (just like with all the previous routines). Now ramped up the dose for KR slightly. Having some sensations, but no growth yet... Looking forward to it ))

Hey Wen... Can you, please, check for me if I can do anything to cure acne and prevent new spots while staying on BE. All of the phytoestrogens seem to give me acne, and salicylic face wash doesn't seem to make any difference. |

Your acne wash of choice should be the types with benzoyl peroxide in it like the brand type "Clean and Clear". Wen' |

Finishing 2nd cycle without much (or any) change though was having sensations throughout the whole cycle as I remember. Wen, I have a few questions for you: Is multivitamin essential for me? Did I make any progress in terms of the fat cells? |

It's my third cycle and I'm taking the full dosages of KR and Damiana, 2500 and 1200 mg respectively. Still experienced some minor deflation after my second period. Acne is the only problem I have on this regimen. Sometimes I feel tempted to start taking BCP to clear up my skin ( also need it for contraception), but I know that it will slow down the process. I just hope that that it won't take too long before I see some results. After I'm done completely I'll definitely start BCP but till then I'm gonna wait A bit more than a month to see something... Right now I'm taking KR the one with Calcium and Phosphorus, because this was the only one I could find in the country where I spent my summer. Maybe there is some particular brand that's better for me? |

Getting some sensations in my breasts every day starting cycle 4. Lots of new unpretty zits too... but no growth yet, and it's about 20 days into my 4th cycle. Is it supposed to be like that, Wen?

Yes..you're on timeline.
Breasts estimated to fill up 0.5c about 3 weeks from now. Will go up and down for another 4 months. End up about 1.8c bigger.

Ok, Wen... Sorry, for making you repeating the same thing twice. I just thought I would fill out that .5 c by now. Heh... I'll be more patient.
Happy growing everyone!
