Hello!
YES ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to know which hormones are deficient or in excess. It sounds like you MAY have estrogen dominance. I would ask your doctor to check your hormone levels and try eating LOTS of organic cruciferous vegetables as well as flax and chia everyday to help balance them a bit! I like Dr. Gersh books for hormones!
My hormone course is AMAZING (if i do say so myself) and should be done within the next month or so if all goes according to plan! Ill keep everyone posted and Holistic spring members will be getting a discount!
