@JennKay thanks a lot for sharing ur feedback!! Same here, started getting shortened menstrual cycles abt 3 yrs before my first big flare, and various OBGYN said it must progesterone insufficiency and offered oral progesterone during the luteal phase (which l didn't want to take).
But folic acid seems a great alternative. What daily dose did you take? Did you have blood tests in the past to check your serum levels of folate? Mine was 10 ng/ml while the lab states that the normal should be >3.9 ng/ml. So l thought there is no need for supplementing.
But l am thinking of trying supplementing folic acid anyways. Couldn't find recommended serum levels for pots/dysautonomia patients and toxicity limits. Anyone has clues abt that?
Thanks a lot!
