On any medications or supplements? Are you out of shape? I know use to run into all kinds of issues with mones when my cortisol was too high.

I agree with stress hormones being a big part of this. I'm trying to deal with this sort of stuff now so I haven't worn pheromones in months. I don't want to pollute this thread and forum with my personal health details but I've been reading up on a variety of topics in order to deal with my health being out of balance. Right now my focus is on the work of Chris Masterjohn.

I've been reading and listening to the work or many other health "experts" too and trying to sort all this out. The health industry is worse than US politics sometimes with the zealotry behind each point of view. No matter what point of view any expert has, there is at least one expert that contradicts the point of view. There is not too much consensus out there.

The stuff masterjohn focuses on is really dense and hard to understand. He is a researcher and most of his work is not practical. What are your symptoms? If you're not dying of a disease cortisol should (relatively) easy to bring down. Something has raised moved your hormones out of balance.

For me it was longterm use of stimulants that caused me to burn out. I pushed and pushed my system to the limit with modafinil/Adderall/ephedrine/maoi/ pea. I did some intense shit and paid the price. Gave myself constant anxiety and was in the edge of fight or flight for a year. Some mones (Androsterone) would give m feelings of great dispair.

However polygala (adaptogen) for a few weeks got me out if it and rebalanced my hormones. Life has only been going upwards since.
