What is your supplement regimen?

Question

I haven't had a period since January and feel like I am missing something. Still suffering from adrenal fatigue and hair loss. Currently taking maca root powder with flax seed and chia seeds. Also taking a fertility tea. First Response prenatal, turmeric, vitamin d, probiotic, and thyroid support supplements. Tried vitex for 4.5 months and nothing happened. Sometimes finding the right combination of supplements is overwhelming! Please share your supplement regimen?

Answer

I take Synthroid in the morning. 
I drink an all fruit smoothie with coconut oil in it several hours after my thyroid meds. I try to drink 1-2 a day. I've noticed my energy and mood improving since I started the smoothies. I eat toast with cream cheese and fruit along side of it for breakfast and a wheat wrap with chocolate peanut butter and bananas for lunch. Just making better choices with my meals. 
I've been trying to cut out sugars and bread for my other meals, but with the holidays it's been hard. 😝 I have also been trying more Paleo recipes (aka just meats, veggies, oils, fruits, and nuts). I haven't converted wholly but I've been replacing a lot of my meals with Paleo meals because it makes me feel better. 
As far as exercise goes, I walk and sometimes do this workout DVD called Tae Bo Cardio Inferno. Intense workouts drain me, but I can last 15-20 min doing Cardio Inferno. But I don't do this consistency. Some days I'm too tired to move. 
I take Metformin for my PCOS at night. 
I take Plexus Slim's Probiotic and BioCleanse at night for my IBS. I've used this product since February and I've had tremendous relief!!
I take one Prilosec at night for my IBS and acid reflux. 
And I take one Melatonin to help me fall asleep.

Answer

Have you had your thyroid tested? Sounds like classic symptoms of hypothyroidism. I have been where you are, girl. 
Hypothyroidism and PCOS are known to be linked yet OBGYNs and GP's don't test for both! I have both PCOS and hypothyroidism.  
My symptoms were weight gain, joint pain, thinning hair and hair falling out everywhere (not in clumps but just easily falling out whenever), fatigue that was debilitating, insomnia, irregular periods, infertility, dry skin... 
Sound familiar? Some of these are PCOS symptoms as well. 
Ask your GP to test your thyroid levels. If your TSH is over 4 or 5 then you have hypothyroidism. Make sure you get your lab results and you see the numbers. What consitutes as hypothyroidism is heavily debated in the medical community. Unfortunately there aren't many doctors who will even treat you for it. Just give you the bare minimum until your levels are "normal" even if you're still experiencing symptoms.
