> I actually tried taking a supplement which is supposed to block testosterone at the follicle, but it only messed up my cycle, so I went off. The hair isnt a problem now, though.
Was the supplement saw palmetto? I've been thinking of trying it sometime
Estrogen is one thing that causes youthful skin..ask Barbara. My doc, who came from Germany, said that French and German ladies have used estrgoen as face creams for yearsMy skin has suddenly dried out too. I just noticed a couple of weeks ago..it has gone all lined around eyes and railway tracks in neck..never saw these before. I had just started tyrosine..now you have me thinking!
I thought my vision had just improved and now I can see them all!
I have not been on any other meds but thyroid meds. I have been blaming the thyroid meds for the aging..I used to look very young for my age..I reckon I have caught up 20 or more years in the past two years
Still haven't figured it out..perhaps my body is just stressed from the changes the meds cause?
