I've been researching the B vits recently and came upon a few forums that support using b6 100-300 mgs daily for increasing progesterone (mainly fertility forums) and also for decreasing prolactin (mostly the weight ligfting forums).
I have been supplementing b6 in hopes to lower prolactin, and have found it VERY effective. But when i started having issues with my cycle during this same time, I discovered the progesterone connection.
I wonder why I haven't heard more about progesterone and B6 from RP. Apparently b6 is very effective at increasing progesterone in the female body.
In any event, its worth some reaserch if you are concerned with progesterone, prolactin and estrogent dominance. Just Google "progesterone B6" and you will find quite alot out there. I am still reading up on it myself.
Also, I am now a firm believer in balancing the b's so I take a b50-complex as well as individual b6. In my experience, if I ONLY supplement individual b's, then I start getting sympotms of imbalance (usually insomnia). If I take the bcomplex and then dose individual b's, I don't have symptoms. :)
