@Bernadette Abraham
Thank you . Regarding the lab results of DHEA-S I did it 2 months ago with the same lab ( via Valeo ) and I think the lab reverence’s are the same . I will check my files and let you know .
How do you find Valeo ? Are they reliable ? Am finding them the most cost effective with out of pocket tests but if you have any other suggestions pls let me know as I am in touch with them regarding the vitamin A , zinc and copper that you recommended ( by the way they don’t have Copper RBC)
I will send you my insulin tests . They are not made via conventional medicine , so I think they are fine
Hmm cutting alcohol completely is not pleasant lol ! I don’t generally have a lot but eveyone in a while I like to have it as a “mood” . But I will keep your advice in mind
I would say my calowire intake is low yes . I am trying my best to increase it bit honestly it’s hard work for me and it takes a lot of energy to focus on it
Thai was a helpful of handout cos some of those things ( sinus heavy head etc ) I def get from time to time and I always assumed it was from dusty weather i. Am a little worried of eliminating so many things and losing even more weight . Any help or strategy you can provide would be appreciated
just one thing : you mentioned anovulation : I do ovulate ( maybe last month I didn’t and hence my period was later and cos progesterone was low ) I have a pretty decent cycle length and my progestrone in the past was alsways ok never as low as 0.58 . I think that was truly ass a result of a very stressful last couple of months

@Bernadette Abraham thank you so much for all this . I will tackle one by one and ask some additional questions and give you more info if needed
First of all I just received further horomone testing which I will attach at the bottom of my replies here . Just a small note : 2 months ago my progesterone was super low (.58 only ) and I was put on an adrenal protocol . So am glad to see it go up now. My DHEA-S was 97, now it went up to 107. Interetsing you say that my DHEA -S is so high , I was under the impression that it’s actually low !
I want to ask 2 things before I reply to yours
do you reccomend that I dog deeper and get a Dutch test done ? It’s pretty pricey so I want to know if it will help me further or are things clear from the blood tests I did ?
Is being androgen dominant heriditay ? And if so what I can do to reverse it in my daughter ?
Your replied below
Stress level : it’s ok . I have a stressful life and job and I have had quite a difficult year . I think my progesterone went down due to this . The last 2 months I am feeling much better with the adrenal program I was on
I don’t have insulin resistance no , I get tested
I don’t drink much , maybe once a week if I do and like one or 2 glasses of wine
Thyroid :.L actually my thyroid was under active , but we test it regularly /‘d it’s been stable
I have been diagnosed with PCOS yes . Also I should add that ever since I was a teenager I suffer from excess facial hair
I suffer from being underweight rather than overweight .
I never got tested for zinc no , I can certainly do it if you think it wouod help
I don’t cook in cast iron and I don’t take iron although in the past I did
Never tested vita A no . Though when I read some comments here I started looking into it via Valeo. Some research online says the serum is useless cos most vita a is stored in liver ? Again am fed it and desperate so if this help I wouod do it !
Never got tested for RBC magnesium
11. I don’t have gut issues and I don’t have food intolerance as far as I know . When I get flare up I try to cut dairy which is usually only kefir cottage cheese and butter
12. I had mold recently and was put for a protocol and has heavy metals and also went through chelation a few years ago and had a horrible acne reaction so I stopped half way . I really do think that my issue with acne is with androgens cos it’s around a ovulation and it stopped completely when I got pregnant and hence was not ovulating
-
@Bernadette Abraham mm I dont receive any of those emails . I only e receive emails from b better community round up . I certainly didn’t get anything about the travel season ?
-
Hi @Daniel Schepers was looking only this as I am struggling with acne again after having a respite for 2 years since I got pregnant . For the life of me I could never succeed at knowing how to access fullscript . Pls can you make screenshots of the stuff you mentioned here like topical vit m and the zinc ?
-
@Bernadette Abraham thanks for your feedback . The current protocol I am on was given to me by Dr heather Eade whom I see . I will ask her about too much B6 on my next visit with her
With regards to the pectaclear you mention evening on empty stomach , I usually have a late dinner at 8 and sleep at 10 is that sufficient ? How many hours otherwise I should have no food? But healthy I know but my current schedule allow me to only eat by 8
-
@Bernadette Abraham thank you very much. I asked them today and unfortunately yes they said that this is the contrast and that I need to take it otherwise no point in MRI ( breast )
I will try to get pectaclear if it can come here on time before my appointment:does it have any side effects of detox that i should be aware of ?
As for other support am already on this protocol , I think this should be covering the ones you mentioned no?
-
@Bernadette Abraham it doesn’t seems to be . According to my broker it’s the same policy , it’s just that here if you have UAE residency you have to buy the policy issued by Sukoon but apparently benefits are the same . Or so they say ! Am fighting towards getting it covered as my relative is with orient ( local insurance ) and they got the stool test covered !
-
Thank you so much both @Bernadette Abraham and @Naveed Aslam . Am in Dubai so yes it may be a regional issue . They do cover consultations with naturopaths though so it’s strange they don’t cover some of the tests . I am still trying through my broker but I thought to reach out here in case peeps here have any experience

@Bernadette Abraham it’s this infant probiotic from klairs labs but I don’t have it anymore . I know they have one for toddlers too but I don’t know from where to get it . Last time I got it from shop and ship and it takes time . Do you recommend or you prefer another one ?
I also want to ask about the rash on the leg I know it’s normal from
. Virus but do you reccomend any particular cream to apply ? I used this yesterday is it a good idea or shall I stick to something natural like coconut oil or baby balm
Finally what multivitamin do you recommend for her age group ? I once saw someone talk about Hiya which has no additives or artificial flavors whixh so many of them have

Thank you so much @Bernadette Abraham a lot to Dig into here but all super helped up thank you and will keep you posted .
Her throat is really bothering her preventing her from eating or drinking much . Any suggestions for that ?
And would you also recommend adding a probiotic to support gut ? If so for how long and which one? When she was a baby I was using this ( baby version Product)
Do you recommend ? Though I don’t know where to find it anymore

I forgot to mention that they also have this spray to soothe the throat blisters
