Love listening to the podcast and grateful you give a chance to submit questions! I had an allergic reaction on my face and neck a few months ago. Derm called it atopic dermatitis. This came on after a micro needling treatment. First and last unfortunately. That has all resolved now, but I'm left with this hypopigmentation around my mouth and neck (neck has the worst inflammation) where spots are white now, especially if I tan. Any suggestions on how to resolve this loss of pigment? Thanks!!       Anonymous: Hi! I am 34 years old. I have always thought I have PMDD, after ovulation I feel more sad\/depressed\/anxious amongst other things. I also have very painful heavy periods for context if it\u2019s helpful. I noticed the last 3-4 months the symptoms I have leading up to my period have been changing. I have started sweating more, which also smells more which has never been an issue for me. I also feel a little nauseous for a few days before my period amongst other things that aren\u2019t coming to mind right now. I\u2019m wondering if something could have shifted in me to cause this? Do you have any insight, if I could afford to test I would, but I was hoping you\u2019d have some insight for me. Thank you so much.       Trish: Hi Dr Cabral - I wrote in a few weeks ago asking the difference between Estrogen support and balance. The reason I'm not sure which one to use is I took your individual labs you offer for Estrogen and Progesterone. Results on both were in the yellow low range tip of red range. The email recommended I take progesterone support and Estrogen support but I was told I was estrogen dominant which I thought would mean I take Estrogen balance. This is why I'm confused as to which estrogen to take. I take all the other products the email protocol is recommending. Thanks for your advice. You are so appreciated for the work you do.       Mohamed: Hey Dr.Cabral, hope all is well. My question is regarding Reverse Osmosis water and lower pH versus alkalinity (CaCo3). These two are different from my understanding, the alkalinity is the water's ability to buffer acid\/resist changes in pH. If Aquatru RO water filters everything, the alkalinity would in theory be very minimal. In comparison, Gerolsteiner or other high Bicarb mineral water have higher buffering capability. I'm asking regarding my research into urine pH and tumor (microenvironment). I want to increase urine pH along with other strategies. Since tumor Microenvironemt (extracellular) is typically acidic. Want to try increasing alkalinity and observe via urine pH to enhance effect of other strategies such as diet etc. How can I increase alkalinity of water? and best foods?        Paige: Hey Dr Cabral! I found I have some sort of bump over my liver April of 2024 seemingly superficial and I notice no symptoms or pain or discomfort with it is just annoying when I do yoga as it stays local but I can feel it move slightly in the local area. I just did a 21 day detox and felt like it may have gone down a little. I am going to be doing the big 5 test to determine any other underlined concerns that may help but just curious what you would do in my circumstance if anything. Thank you I greatly appreciate your time and knowledge Sir.
