I was prescribed bioidentical progesterone by my doctor and began to feel very sick after a few months. I took a test to measure my progesterone level and it was off the charts. I stopped taking it and am now looking for something non-hormonal to help raise my progesterone level. I am 42 years old and I have bad PMS every month.
A: Many women find that the regular Royal Maca is far superior to taking progesterone for overcoming estrogen dominance. Women take Royal Maca for PMS or for hot flashes and then discover that their fibroid tumors are smaller or have even disappeared. This is an indication that progesterone and estrogen are balanced. Before and after clinical cases using Royal Maca have also shown higher progesterone levels, higher DHEA levels, lower TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) levels.
There are some women, however, who don’t do well with maca root unless it is combined with DIM. In these women, maca has a somewhat inflammatory effect and they may develop breast tenderness which doesn’t go away even when they greatly reduce their daily dosage. (In most women, if they cut their maca dosage in half, the tenderness goes away in a few days.) DIM helps your body make a much higher percentage of non-inflammatory estrogen. These women swear by Whole World Botanicals’ product, Royal Maca Plus for Women with DIM.
