not sure whether this belongs here or on alternative...
anyone have any experiences to share? I will look into how expensive it is...
it has been suggested to help me sleep... maybe it might reduce the number of hours i need to spend sleeping (maybe i'm getting less actual sleep than i think).
i'm interested, too, in something i saw on wiki about it reducing follicle stimulating hormone...
i do have some kind of hormonal issue... what is it... let me think... testosterone in normal range... free t (t4?) is normal... but elevated t3 (so actually t4 should be being overproduced if it was doing what it is being signalled to do)... which suggests maybe a pituitary tumor or something... occasionally my gp's will make a bit of a thing of this... i'm at risk of... hyperthyroidism or something. i have lots of facial hair, too (which i remove with tweezers) but... this needs to be done daily... so i hate to think of how much there would be if i didn't remove it... low levels of skin inflammation all the time... i actually went on roacutane for a while when i was in aussie after having a cyst removed from my face :(
but i forgot to take it... it was clearing things up... reducing ear wax etc... but it made me feel a little wired and i started to feel scared about my mood so i sort of started forgetting to take it.... things have gone back to how they were, now.
i think i have a pot belly, too. which reduces (i think) when i lay off gluten. so i do try and lay off gluten. but even elimating gluten and eating really very clean indeed (as in: meat, veges (not so much root veges) and only a little dairy - which i'm fairly sure i'm fine with) doesn't clear up my skin properly..
anyway... melatonin... yeah.
