I was taking hc last yr and had some good results with it. i no longer use it.
however, my wife had all the classic symptoms of low adrenal reserve - big dark circles under eyes, pale skin, tiredness. she did a saliva test and her results showed she was quite low in cortisol.
all she needed to take was 5mg of hc a day and has been on this for 6 mths.
any way she thought she would stop it recently and has not become tired yet. however she has become very pale again and her facial acne is returning. this was another problem she had and the 5mg of hc seemed to reduce this problem a lot.
has anyone got any advise on what she should do (go back on hc) and how long can she take it for. is it ok to take forever? i thought if you treated the adrenals they would become stronger in themselves. also is it ok to take Hc when pregnant. we are thinking about having a baby.
