For years now, I've been struggling with problems that I recently, through research, discovered are linked to high serotonin and high prolactin levels. Let me list some symptoms:
-digestive issues (loose stools, especially from sugar and flour. I've become mostly-regular from supplements which I will list below as well as dietary changes)
-puffy nipples, recently developed mild gyno on one side and sensitivity on both sides
-potential hair line receding/hair loss. It is very minor but I can notice it slightly. I've also bleached my hair in the recent past so this may have contributed
-delayed ejaculation: Most of the time I'm fine on my own, but cannot finish with partners as of last time I tried a few months ago before my current protocols
-lack of muscle gain despite sufficient calories and exercise
-water retention
-heavy sweater during exercise and in heat
I have always been extremely active (wrestled for 8 years and stopped last year, lifting 3x/week for around 4 years now, baseball throughout youth, etc) but I am fairly sedentary during the day. I'm religious with my sleep schedule so that is not an issue. As far as stress goes, I'm an engineering student if that says anything haha. I keep my diet clean and follow about as good as I can get as a student.
Here are my current supplements:
-Black seed oil: ~1-2 tsp daily
-Perfect Supplements beef organs: 4 capsules daily
-Oystermax: 3 capsules daily
-L-Lysine: 2000mg daily (though I might go back down to 1000mg)
-Cordyceps tincture: ~45 drops 5x/week
-Niacinamide: 1.5g-2g/day
-L-Arginine (500mg) with 10mg B6: 1x/day
-Rhodiola Rosea: 200-400mg as needed (usually 4-5x/week)
-Fulvic/Humic blend: ~20mL daily
-Rosita cod liver oil (I know Peaters hate this one, but it has helped my teeth significantly): ~1/2tsp-3/4tsp/day
-Butter oil: 1 heaping tsp daily
-Glycine: 2-3g daily
-Aspirin: ~500mg 3-4x/week
-Vitamin E tincture: just got this and would love input from you guys about dosage
-Tribulus: in the mail coming soon. This will likely replace rhodiola for the most part, though I will likely still take that 1-2x a week if I feel extra stressed
-Magnesium: foot soak in epsom salt for about 10 minutes ~5x/week
I've also been adding more insoluble fibers (carrot salad, mushroom soup), though the carrots tend to back me up a bit, so I will probably reduce this. I also bought Crucial Four mSalt to add to my water, which seems to be helping with water retention.
Anyway, I know this was a long post, but I look forward to hear what you guys think.
