Is it meant to be this uncomfortable to lower prolactin? I’m taking a fairly high dose of Vitex 2000mg to lower my high prolactin and raise progesterone. Trying to stop some female bleeding. Its been causing agitation, buzzing/static in head and ears, light sensitivity, vision disturbances and feeling quite warm. Also a feeling as if I need to keep moving. I don’t have progesterone on hand, so this is my only option. Is this a dopamine effect or is it screwing with my adrenals? I’m afraid to use a lower dose in case it ends up increasing my prolactin (as per the studies). From a genetics test in the past, I was told that my body does not metabolize dopamine well and im prone to being dopamine dominant. So how do I lower prolactin if I can’t even raise dopamine? Seeing that using a low dose of Vitex isnt a good idea, what is? I wonder if 800mg Vitex is enough to suppress prolactin. Ive been on some bodybuilding forums where they mentioned you need at least 1500mg Vitex to ensure if lowers it. My other option is Theanine but I really need the extra progesterone from Vitex. What is the lowest effective dose of Vitex? I trialled theanine at 200mg for a day and that failed as it caused a depressive episode. Not sure how likely 50mg theanine would lower prolactin. But if this buzzing in my ear is caused by adrenals, then maybe Theanine is the better choice. Unless this is a dopamine effect, then I am doomed. i assumed the increase in Gaba via progesterone would offset the anxiety but this doesn’t feel worth it.
