So good news, I have clear skin for the first time in 13 years. Did I mention I'm on my period right now and this past week it has just been getting progressively better and glowier? I even went off my paleo diet for a few days because I was working long hours on a film set and had to eat the food they offered: donuts and pizza. I thought for sure I would break out but I just came home to really healthy, glowy skin, lol. I am kind of in shock. After 13 years of suffering with acne (Age 12-25) I just want to say "That's it? It's over?? Is this a trick??". I still don't believe it. My period is also less painful, less heavy.
I have been using Estroblock Pro for about 4 weeks. I take 4 pills per day, rather than the two written on the label because I've noticed that it works better for me and the staff said it's safe to take. The first two weeks my skin got worse than it had been for a long time. I had breakouts on my chin, cheeks, and temples. I was really moody and my pee was brown every morning. I found it hard to push through because I didn't really know if it was working and the acne was really hard to bare. The third week the breakouts started slowing down, my pee went from dark brown to orange, and the fourth week my skin was clear and my pee was yellow. I honestly didn't expect this to work because after trying so many things, I was used to being disappointed.
Not sure if everyone goes through this, but I feel kind of ripped off that I really suffered deeply with cystic acne for so many years, when there was just a vegetable pill available to fix it. I guess it is a mixture of ecstatic relief and bitterness because I really don't understand why this cystic acne happened to me, it felt like just meaningless suffering that put me over the edge so many times. I can't really express the feeling of rubbing my hands over my face and feeling real human skin, without pain, infection and scabbing. I even called my mom and said "Wow, my skin colour is white, not red".
I really want to help people find this product, because there are so many men and women whose lives would change with it. I am in shock that this exists. I went to my doctor when I started Estroblock because I had a very rough first two weeks on it. He told me that it was just the way my skin was and that I should give up with the natural remedies and that if it bothered me so much that Accutane was an option. I do believe he was trying to help me, but I find it so frustrating that DIM clearly helps so many people and so few acne sufferers know about it.
Even worse, I can't believe that I had deep facial infections for half my life due to estrogens caused by pollution and bad nutrition. I had by far the worst acne when at age 14 I decided to become a vegetarian and live on soy meat replacements that are so high in estrogens. My acne went from normal breakouts, to cysts covering my whole face. Soy should be treated like a medicine not a food! It wasn't till I was 19 and quit that ridiculous diet that my acne backed off a bit.
I've read some reviews where it didn't work for some people. Maybe it doesn't work for everyone, but I also think that some people need to take stronger dosages than what the label says. I've done some internet research and apparently DIM has been studied a lot and is considered safe in much higher dosages than what the pills include. I personally have to take 4 per day which has cleared my skin, and am considering taking 6 to see if it will help my anxiety stabilize as I think it is due to hormones. Yeah, it costs more to up your dosage, but I know anyone who has suffered from deforming cysts is willing to pay it. The company is also great as they are really there to help you through it and answer all your questions and address your worries. I emailed Rachel a lot (like at least 8 emails) and she was able to give me info about other people's experiences and assure me that everything would be okay. I also find their instagram helpful as it shows before and after images which can help you stay calm if you are going through a bad detox. read more
