Hello, everyone!
I bought fenugreek and red clover extracts tonight, which are extremely expensive by the way. It must be because I'm in Cambridge now! Anyway, I bought them for use in a massage recipe. While searching the board for info on how to use extracts (which I will ask questions about soon), I found the link to the online hormone balance test. I usually only experience the two symptoms I checked slightly or infrequently. I really wouldn't consider them symptoms because I don't have them often. Anyway, according to the test, since I have one symptom in group 1 and one in group 3, I am in group 4, which means that I am estrogen dominant. Does that mean that I shouldn't use red clover because it's a progesterone-blocker? I remember that I took a couple of pills a month ago that were pure progesterone (don't ask why), and at first, I seemed to shrink, but then I started to grow like never before. I think maybe the progesterone boost helped jumpstart my growth. Of course, I think this is supposed to help everyone who does it (cycling, right?), but if I am in group 4, do I really need progesterone-blockers? Or rather, do I need progesterone? Please let me know what you all think of this. I'm confused. I have another question pertaining to extracts. I don't have a lot of time to spend on massages. I'm in college now! I usually massage for a few minutes in the shower. However, I was wondering if I could leave the batter on over night. Is that too messy? How do you recommend I implement the massages: in the shower as I have been doing, or leaving it on overnight? Okay, I think that's enough for tonight! Thanks so much for your help! ;D
