Who here is taking Saw Palmetto, L-theanine and/or L-Glutamine? I want to know if anyone has experienced side effects when starting them, what effects and how long they lasted. I have a sensitive stomach and I’m leery to try. Thanks

I want to start saw palmetto but have read in a few places that it can cause weight gain. I definitely don’t want that! Has anyone experienced that when taking it?
Worst nights sleep!!!
I started my progesterone last night…and I didn’t fall asleep until 4am. 😭😫🫩 Got some feedback from elevate on adjusting and will follow up. Anyone else here thinking progesterone intolerance? I had no idea that was even a possibility?! I was anxious and excited thinking this was going to be my ”cure” finally getting good sleep and the calm my life so needs, but as the hours passed, and I prayed for sleep to come…my hopes were shattered that progesterone would be the answer.

I experienced progesterone intolerance! My previous dr had me try 100mg pill at night. It was awful. I recently switched drs. My progesterone still showed low on my labs. I’ve had terrible sleep for 5 years now. I was so scared to try any progesterone after taking the pill ones. My current Dr prescribed me bio identical sublingual drops. She thinks the 100mg was just too much for my body. About 60 drops of the sublingual one is equivalent to 100mg!! I started at 2 drops, lol, and have been working up to more drops. I have been sleeping better at around 5-7 drops. Huge difference! I love how when I have my period I can add drops if I want since progesterone drops then. It’s made a huge difference. I didn’t even know about sublingual drops before I switched drs.
