I've using 1000mg per day and am changing to 1500mg per day. But is it safe to use 3000mg per day like Chrissie?

I presume that you are talking about PM because you never said what it is you are taking.

3000mg per day does not seem to have killed Chrissie off and I am taking the same dose of PM. I switched to FG a while back but I am back on PM at present. Do the sensible thing and up the dose gradually until you start to feel effects like sore boobs or headaches - anything at all.

Next week move up to 1500 then the week after 2000 then 2500 the following week. Experiment gradually. There are some on here who get headaches above a certain level.

then some find the headaches go away , at first 3000mg gave me a headache , then that stopped as body acclimatised,

I agree 100% with what Beverley says, but I would also add one thing.
There is a theory, which I believe in, that cycling the dose is beneficial because it stops the body becoming to used to a certain level of phytohormones and a negative feedback starting, which creates stalling.

I get headaches after a few days at 6 x500mg PM a day, so I go up to the 6 level for 2 or 3 days then when the head starts hurting I drop it back to 4 a day for 2 or 3 weeks, then down to 2 a day for a few days then back up to 6, and so on.
This both very roughly mimics a natural estrogen production and keeps the levels changing.

In terms of true 'safety', nobody really knows because nobody has done any toxicity tests, etc, as far as I know.

I have read that toxicity tests have been carried out and no adverse reactions were seen; even at massively high doses.

Thanks Chrissie, that's good to know, I stand corrected!

Thanks girls, Its really tough being patient for more growth.
Okay I'm taking 1000mg of Ainterol PM in the morning
and
1000mg of Ainterol PM at night before bed and massaging in breast cream Would taking 1000mg of Ainterol PM before lunch help the process?

Would Saw Palmetto capsules help too?

yep, agree its the patience that is the hardest thing about all this! LOL


1000mg morning and again evening is my standard dose, but as I said I vary that going up to 3000mg and down to 1000mg total per day. Chrissie was/is on 3000mg a day with no bad effects, but on a regular basis that's too much for me. You have to experiment to find how it works for you, but by experimen,t I mean try it for at least 2 or 3 weeks, not 2 or 3 days.

Whether you want to take 1500mg twice a day or 1000mg three times a day is again up to you. I tried the three times a day but found that doesn't fit my routine easily so I went back to twice. If you do want to take it 3 times a day I'd suggest that you need to spread it as close to even throughout the day as you can, whatever that is for you, with a bias towards bedtime if you can't mange even 8 hour gaps.

The question of SP is also up for debate, I take it regularly but some others take it periodically and some simply don't use it and have still grown nicely, so again, it's up to you.

Yep. I would start out slow and work your way up. I jumped into 3000mg and was spaced out and had headaches sometimes. After a few weeks all the bad side effects have gone away. PM is great!

I recall that, at first I did not feel that good; as I keep sayig, listen to your body; then you will get it right.
