I might be an unusual case of someone who needs a lot of vitamin A. Some bodies don't use vitamin A efficiently, I believe.
Great, thanks. :)

I've got to say that I have personally been told in the past by medical 'authorities' that this or that problem was idiopathic. One example was about about eight years ago when I was treated for a prolactinoma. I was told at the time that about 20% of the population has this problem and no one knows why. I'm sorry but that's pathetic. Ironically, after discovering the work of Peat it all made perfect sense. I also experienced melasma (a pigment disorder) around the same time as well as PCOS and endometriosis resulting in a partial hysterectomy all by the age of 36! As an aside I noticed that while on bromocriptine for the prolactinoma the pigment disorder resolved. This all probably could have been prevented or minimized had I not followed conventional wisdom. It's really a shame that peoples lives are being effected to varying degrees and when they seek help from medical authorities (conventional or alternative) they are often told that the problems origin is unknown! If you start reading Peats work it soon becomes obvious that this human body isn't so mysterious after all! I can't believe people accept that type of explanation and I was one of them. Thanks for letting me RANT. I feel so much better now. :2cents

Yes, I’ve noticed since if my progesterone gets too low it comes back.oh, and it’s thrilling to hear that your melasma went away. That must have been so satisfying.
I have not but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a connection. :)hi blossom, I read with great interest this old thread that I came across while searching prolactinoma.
I am seeing my primary doctor next week, finally, to get a referral to a vascular surgeon. Despite peating for nine months, my varicose veins that first appeared while breastfeeding my first child have only gotten worse (while breastfeeding my third). I will also have a blood work up and am very curious what my prolactin levels are.
I have major melasma on my face and am yawning excessively, both I understand are symptoms of high prolactin. Presumably my prolactin levels are elevated since I’ve been lactating basically nonstop since 2015. But I wonder if I’ve also developed a prolactinoma , and whether that is behind the vascular disease.
I’ve been doing high calcium, high protein, and progest e during second half of my cycle.
I also smoked in my twenties, although never heavily (never more than five a day), and still use nicotine lozenges occasionally.
Have you heard of anyone developing vascular disease in connection to high prolactin levels?
Hm. Do you get frequent testing? How do you know when your progesterone is low?Yes, I’ve noticed since if my progesterone gets too low it comes back.
I just know because whenever I stop supplementing progesterone after a few months I will start having hyperpigmentation again. It seems for me it’s important to keep my prolactin low and use progesterone regularly. I was hoping that would change post menopause but it hasn’t yet.Hm. Do you get frequent testing? How do you know when your progesterone is low?
are you able to raise progesterone levels through supplementation ?
