I have been getting worsening cyclical breast pain (have had looked into) and have had EPO recommended to me, I have taken it in the past with success with PMT symptoms but got out the habit, I’m keen to start again but curious as to how much others take? Online suggests 1000mg-3000mg, the ones I have from boots are 1000mg per capsule. I have a sensitive stomach so a little cautious of that.

My allergist recommends going in with the minimum recommended dose at first and then taking it up from there, with a new supplement if need be.. Maybe you remember from previous use how long it takes to kick in.
