Hi,
I used to be somewhat active on here a few years back, but haven't posted anything for quite a while.
Anyway, something happened recently which makes me want to ask advice or for others experiences:
As a 30 y.o. guy, I've been using progesterone on and off, about 1-5 mg every few days or so, for a while.
Partly to see if it might have some effects in blocking estrogen which I've been suspecting is a longstanding problem for me,
and also just to see if it could help my brain function.
Effects have been mostly good, and I haven't experienced any noticeable problems in terms of suppressing my own steroid
production, which has been in the back of my mind after a bad experience I had a few years back.
Recently however I ended up using prog 3 days in a row, after which I seem to really have upended my
hormones. I could go into detail, but it's similar to what happened many years ago when I overused DHT,
albeit less dramatic.
I'm curious if any other guys have had this happen to them, signs of gonadal suppression use from progesterone,
and if so whether it mostly went away on its own, anything in that category.
It's weird to me that I'd even get symptoms like this at such low doses, but here I am.
On the positive side I am hopeful this incident isn't likely to be as bad as my previous androgen misuse.
Thanks for reading,
