Hi, blue77green,

Welcome,
Your program breakdown

1000 PM- Pueraria Mirifica - Awesome for breast growth
640mg of SP- Anti-androgen
1600mg Spearmint-Anti-androgen keep

These are all suggestions for you, see how it goes at first. Then if you would like we can talk about adding some Pro-hormone's, Pro-Aromatase, but you have PM and Spearmint, which is a good starter!

1) Since I'm overweight would I need MORE of everything than an average weight person would need? Do you think it hinders the capsules working as well at a lower dosage? Not really, overweight men tend to produce more aromatase the key enzyme in converting testosterone into estrogen.


2) People who have attained growth... do you typically eat anything when you take any pills or do you just drink milk or whatever else? Do you hold off on eating anything for a certain period of time around the time you take the pills to allow for better absorption or does that not matter? I know you shouldn't eat a fatty meal but I didn't know if just regular food might hinder the capsules a little.

Most dietary supplements can be taken with or without foods, but sometimes taking them on an empty stomach causes heartburn or an upset stomach. Foods can change how you absorb certain nutrients -- sometime that's good and sometimes that's bad.

3) Do you think 12 hours is too far apart between dosages? I was thinking to add 2 more PM capsules at midday sometime to keep a steady supply of PM in my body. Do you think it would HELP?-
There is interesting thread about the 1/2 life of PM,

4) I'm taking SP and Spearmint as anti-androgens... This might sound like a weird question but if I'm still getting erections that means it's not suppressing the testosterone enough...meaning I should maybe increase the dosage... is that right?

My .02 cents on SP, it effects the estrogen levels, this is commented by Abi our resident science guru, Isabelle, Ceci and others. It prevents the conversion of T to DHT, which DHT is the Libido killer, taken with spearmint is overkill. You can actually consider supplementing with something that already has an Anti-Androgen later. i.e.-Licorice or Peony root-(Licorice - Anti-androgenic and activates alpha and beta estrogen receptors and blocks 5-ar - Strong, but take in moderation! Link with more info.) http://suppversity.blogspot.com/2011/11/licorice-more-estrogenic-than-estradiol.html
For now spearmint is a good starter

Saw  palmetto-  Beta-sitosterol is a natural alpha-adrenergic receptor blocker. Specifically, it prevents a degraded form of testosterone called dihydrotestosterone from accumulating in prostate tissue that would otherwise cause excessive cell growth and inflammation. The plant steroids in saw palmetto also act on progesterone receptors, an action that causes a reduction in estrogen levels. According to the results of a large international trial published in the "Journal of Clinical Oncology" in April 2011, estrogen and progesterone receptor status is a predictive marker of early breast cancer and post-treatment relapse.

5) Do you think that PABA is enough in the swanson capsule I'm taking(see above)?

PABA -(Decreases breakdown of estrogen in your body so you have more free estrogen)
Probably to soon for you to add PABA

I know it's only been 3 weeks and it will take time on everything but I'm just trying to set myself up here in the beginning for the best overall results... Thanks SO MUCH for any help!!! I really enjoy reading all of these posts all the time!!!

There is so much to learn, take a look at the NBE guide for Bio-Males, of course you'll have comments to contradict what I'm saying, but what do I know!

Great job Sammie and ClaraKay, much respect and love!!
