I’ve read that LDN can sometimes help with perimenopause symptoms, hormonal imbalances, burnout, and adrenal fatigue. I do want to give it a chance, but I’m extremely afraid that it could shift something in my immune system in a negative way.

I have severe health anxiety, and that is actually one of the reasons I’m considering trying LDN in the first place. But at the same time, I’m terrified that it could somehow alter my immune system and cause something serious like cancer to develop — even though I also know LDN is sometimes used as supportive therapy in cancer care.

What scares me most is that I’ve read that higher dosages can sometimes trigger unwanted immune reactions. And then my mind goes to: what if I react paradoxically even to a very low dose?

I also have an autoimmune disease that has been in remission for 11 years, which I honestly don’t understand, because during those same 11 years I’ve still been extremely unwell with exhaustion and hormonal issues. The fact that it stayed in remission almost feels too fragile to risk disturbing.

The problem is: I feel stuck. I don’t feel like I can afford for anything to go wrong. I have absolutely no buffer left physically or mentally.

Looking for woman who had perimenopause symptoms and LDN helped them. Is that even possible?

* I know about HRT, currently using progesterone but had bad reaction and I’m careful with taking estrogen. I’m in early stages and 36y.

Hello, I’m curious: are there people with an autoimmune disease that is in remission who take LDN for something else, for example depression or something similar? How does your autoimmune disease respond to it?

Can someone help me clarify if this is correct? In another LDN group I readed this:

1. A pre-existing B12 deficiency that may become much more noticeable or intensified after starting LDN.

2. LDN may place extra demand on reserves you do not currently have available, because certain systems in the body may start functioning more actively or efficiently.

3. LDN may bring underlying hormonal imbalances or challenges (for example lower estrogen levels) more to the surface

I’m wondering if there are here any experiences or more information that could be shared about LDN and adrenal fatigue? I saw 1 short video on the LDN website but that’s it. I really can’t find any more information and/or experiences about it. I’m having severe adrenal fatigue for 11 years. Thanks in advance!
