A cross in the sand
Does anyone else find this explanation helpful -- ? Imagine yourself sitting on the beach and you draw a cross in the sand like an 'x'. The first stroke represents your dopamine deficiency and the second stroke you draw several times as it represents an overactive adrenal response subsequent to the HABIT

#1: The Start
Following the example of Clarebear I've decided to document my thyroid-adrenal journey on here in hopes it'll keep me accountable, and also may serve some after me. After a long, complicated history of no diagnosis, followed by lithium treatment, then prolonged time spent on T4 with no improvement,

Vitamin D & tolerating thyroid medication
Hello, Thanks so much for your time in reading my post, I would really appreciate any/all opinions on this. I am currently investigating why, ever since I crashed from 2 years of Keto, I can't tolerate thyroid medication. I have discovered I have extremely low adrenal function and am now treating

DHEA (& Cortisol)
Hello, I received these results today. I would appreciate it so much if someone could give me a steer on the DHEA aspect. I understand cortisol very well and clearly I have some form of adrenal insufficiency. I have 2 questions - 1. Do you think I need hydrocortisone from these results or can I

Adrenaline from starting too low/ slow with cortex?
Hi, I started the nutrimeds adrenal cortex plus. I took ~1/4 capsule (so ~25mg cortex) in juice sipped on over 4h (waking, ~8am to 12pm). I am usually hypersensitive to supplements, which is why I wanted to start low and slow. My low back soreness has increased and I feel wired/ increased adrenaline

Anyone tried Thorne or Seeking Health Adrenal Cortex Extracts
I had an online consult with a thyroid doctor a couple of days ago. He advised me to take adrenal cortex extract and recommended I take either Thorne ACE or Seeking Health ACE. I have never used anything like this before and am a bit nervous about it. I am wondering if anyone has tried these and can

New here!
I was referred here from a fb group. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year, I also have low adrenals. I assume those work together? I am wondering which doctor to choose next or just go it alone? I have had insomnia for about 12 years now. It gets especially bad around my monthly menses. I

How much cortisol in Adrenal Cortex extracts?
I saw some adrenal cortex extract products on iherb that you can freely buy. Most of adrenal cortex extracts have 50-100mg of Adrenal Cortex Tissue (Bovine, Lyophilized). Do anybody know if hormones are removed or there are still presented?

Insomnia after taking Armour for the first time
Hi everyone! Has anyone experienced insomnia after taking Armour or another NDT for the first time? I took 1/2 grain yesterday at 8 a.m. (with STTM thinking that the starting dose is 1 grain) and could not at all fall asleep in the evening. ETA: Sorry, maybe more information is indeed needed. I have

Interpretation of Cortisol 24 hour Urine test & Cortisol Serum test
Hi everyone, I switched to T3 only 4 months ago & am currently on a total of 100mcg T3 (taken in 3 split doses). Many of my symptoms have resolved & my temperature has raised but it is still slightly low & I still have a few lingering symptoms. My T3 levels came back at 4.11pg/mL (1.5 - 4.0) so I think

How much adrenal cortex is there in whole adrenal...?
Does anyone have any idea how much adrenal cortex whole adrenal approximately contains? I have been on 250 mg of adrenal cortex extract for the past year, after weaning off Medrol for adrenal fatigue, and have felt wonderful on it. But I have just started taking a supplement containing, among other things

CT3M
I know members here have used the CT3M method successfully, and I'd love to hear about your experiences. I managed to wean myself off Medrol (prescribed for adrenal fatigue in late 2011) about a year ago. HC never worked for me as it metabolised too quickly. I was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue based

how much adrenal cortex extract per day?
There are supplements containing anything from 50 to 500 mg of ACE per capsule. I found one by Essential Therepeutics simply called Adrenal Cortex which provides 500 mg of bovine ACE per capsule, whereas 250 mg per capsule seems most common. Does anyone have any idea how much ACE to take? I realise

really good adrenal (cortex) supplement?
Sorry if this has already been discussed: I would like to know if anyone can recommend a really good product for adrenal fatigue? I have read so much about this...some recommend adrenal cortex extract (ACE) products only, to avoid additional adrenaline, while others say that, once the adrenal fatigue

How much Thornes adrenal cortex extract to take?
Hi guys, I've been taken Thornes adrenal cortex extract for 4 weeks now. I took one a day for a week, then 2 a day for a week and now 3 a day for the last 2 weeks. I was supposed to be on NAX according to Dr Peatfield but did not do well on them. I am doing much better on the thornes. So is the amount

Do you think Chronic Fatigue Syndrome exists?
I'm interested to hear peoples views on CFS, and whether you think it exists - or whether you think it's a name given to a collection of issues not 'picked up' by our doctors (such as adrenal fatigue, hormone imbalances, thyroid problems, insulin resistance/pre diabetes and so on) I have actually been

What is the adrenal extract in Nutri Adrenal Extra?
Does anybody know if it contains adrenaline, or is this cortex extract? I'm considering using this instead of taking all the individual supplements, along with my adrenal cortex extract, but don't want to buy it if it contains adrenaline!
