J.Crow’s® Lugol’s Iodine
Free S&H.Restore lost reserves.J.CROW’S®Lugol’s Iodine Solution
Hey all,
I have been researching and trying to follow the protocol posted here from Grizz and a couple others following Dr B's Iodine protocol. I have been 'sort of' fully dialed in with the right components, but didn't follow 100% for about a month so far.
I had taken Propecia for about 2-3 months and realized I was having the sexual side effects "very few users experience" according to the doctor. Well, I stopped taking it years ago, and I have had the side effects still to this day: erectile dysfunction. I noticed as some time went by it had gotten worse for me, with eventual swollen prostate, aching sensation like I was sitting on a ping pong ball, weak urine, moody. Been tested for cancer, nothing. Took way too many volleys of antibitics when the doc said it was a prostate infection, and tried flomax for a few months with no change at all.
I haven't had insurance for a couple years, and every thing I try has done nothing to change any of this other than taking l-arginine which helped some for awhile, but not as much any more.
I picked up most of the elements for the Iodine protocol, but I am not sure if they are good enough or if I am wasting my money. Since starting it all, I feel like I want sex more, but things still haven't changed physically.
My voice has dropped back down an octave at least, constantly clearing my throat, the tip of my nose and hands are FREEZING cold now, sleep is a bit wonky, the pain in the pelvis isn't as bad, but it still feels swollen and 'clenched'.
My doses and supplements are:
L-arg = 1000mg
L-cit = 1000mg
Selenium = 400mcg
DHEA = 50mg
Boron Chelate = 6mg
Zinc = 100mg
Kelp Iodine = 720mcg
Vit K = 200mcg
Hawthorne Extract 700mg
B Complex = B6-20mg, B12-24mcg
Garlic = 2000mg
Walgreens Iodine Tincture (2% in alcohol) = Paint testicles with 10 drops 2x a day
Cal/Mag = 325mg
Ginkgo = 80mg
I am not really feeling much of any changes other than slight detox from the iodine, like sinuses draining a lot and soar throat and voice change which I understand are standard.
Am I taking enough Iodine? Is it really slow to see any effects or changes? Any counsel or experience and advice is greatly appreciated. I really don't want to be this way any more. I'm 41, and living like this for 5 years has been very rough. :(

This is a reply to # 2,151,914Your Iodine should be from a better source and you need a lot more. Its estimated the body holds something like 12mg when sufficient so your 720mcg doesnt even put a dent in things.
The tincture and painting gives who knows how much since its so variable based on absorption.
I would switch to a Lugols or trappers SSKI 2% and try getting 50mg or more.
I think your on the right path but propecia is wicked stuff, I will never know how some of this stuff gets fda approval, it should be a crime.
As an aside, I would ditch the cal mag and just shoot for mag. Calcium can become a real issue in the absence of proper vit A, D and K.
Add as much ascrobic acid or sodium ascorbate that you can each day.

You know, I just realized that "mcg" is like next to nothing. It didn't occur to me one is MICRO not MILI! You are right, not even a dent. I really wish there was a great version that is clear and not stained. I'll take a look at Trappers SSKI or just get Lugols from Amazon.
Yeah, vanity took the better part of me, and not the hair, which I still have 85% of. I deeply deeply regret having done it, as I sort of feel like it opened a pandora's box of other issues since then (sinus infections all the time, anal itch, I think fungal candida, fatigue, depression, ear itch and flaking, etc.) Last I heard there are a number of people in a class action law suit against Propecia, and they have in the mean time changed the side effects to read "can cause PERMANENT sexual dysfunction".
I simply had the cal/mag as a de-stresser.
I'll order the real Iodine and straight Mag, and add more ascrobic acid too.
Appreciate your reading this and chiming in your experience/thoughts. Thanks so much!

This is a reply to # 2,151,922Ferventer is correct. I suggest following the Dr. Brownstein Iodine Protocol.
http://tinyurl.com/Iodine-Handout
However we have been discovering that 100mg or more Iodine may be required to fully detox & correct Iodine deficiency symptoms. This is confirmed by Dr. Brownstein himself. See dosage instructions with testimonials here:

I have also prepared a special section for us ailing men. See "Sexual Issues for Men" here:

Thanks Grizz. Been trying to follow it as close as I could, but realized I was way off on dosage. Just have to order things from Amazon. If the changes I am noticing on the ski dosage I was doing is an indicator, I can't imaging what 100MG would be like!
Grizz, is there a Lugols solution that is dye free? I had seen some on Amazon that is actually made specific for the Dr B protocol, but I wasn't sure if it's able to be painted as well as taken internally.
I noticed that I am getting some really bad skin peeling and a leathery texture from painting, even with using coconut oil as an emulsifier. Is this because of the tincture having alcohol? Would a 5% Lugols solution cause the same issue and has alcohol in it?
Thanks you guys for the help. Been dealing with this for years, and I really am struggling with dealing with is..just fed up and exhausted feeling like shit, all the time.- Re: Iodine protocol for ED and low t... grizz

This is a reply to # 2,152,381Dr. Brownstein recommends only Lugols & iodoral. However Trapper here sells high quality liquid Iodine with magnets & SSKI not available anywhere else. Click "Order SSKI " in the top menu for details. For more details on Trapper's magnetic iodine, also see this link:
http://tinyurl.com/iodine-instructions
There is an in depth discussion of 100mg dosage with testimonials in this link.
Lugols does not have alcohol in it. It is a mix of Iodine & Iodide in distilled water. All Lugols will stain the skin. I have never heard of Lugols with oil causing leathery skin. I paint the testicles with lugols 5% mixed with grapeseed oil for my prostate daily and have not had a problem with leathery skin.
Many folks use Lugols for painting the skin.
Hope this helps,
Grizz

Hey everyone, just wanted to update and say thanks. I picked up the 5% Lugols finally, and am working with it now: for a couple weeks 5 drops of the 5% mixed with coconut oil and painting.
I dropped the cal/mag and went to straight mag, and have upped the C levels as well.
Just wanting to make sure: for the 50mg, it's 10 drops ONCE a day? I ask, as I am wanting to start dating, and having an orange nut purse is a little weird in my opinion. I am hoping the mixing with coconut oil first then applying will help with absorption as well as lessening the sunburn look and creating dermatitis.
I noticed when I ran out of kelp iodine, until this got here, my voice came back up in tone and my joints started aching a little. Anecdotal I know, but even with the minimal I was taking there was a difference.
Thanks everyone for the help and experience!!

This is a reply to # 2,154,755How you doin dervish? I'm having the same problems as you but I never took propecia. I think it's just finally caught up to me after years of drugs, alcohol, melanotan 2, Antibiotics , gluten, and sugar. Unfortunately I'm only 23 and I've been dealing with this for almost 3 years now. :/ I am taking 50 mg iodoral per day hoping to fix this (along with the co supps of course) I will be going to 100 mg next week. Stay strong and motivated man, feel free to pm me anytime and let me know if you make any progress with iodine!
