Women staring at me for longer after taking progesterone
-
@Norwegian-Mugabe Perhaps brother could also be the case. I do look more intently and friendly at people since it relaxes me and puts me in a good mood. Crazy to think these things could be going on, but too negative or inattentive to notice at other times.
-
@Hussle1738 How much, which brand, and how are you taking it?
-
@metabolicmilk Hey metabolic Milk, its ProgestE, I take 2 drops (6-7 mg) and apply to my upper gums. I dose whenever I feel particularly stressed in the evening before bed. On average Ive been dosing every other day or third day.
-
@Hussle1738 I noticed something similar. Not sure if it was because I was simply paying attention to my surroundings more or not.
I noticed it even when I wasn’t doing progesterone. I think it’s more of a low serotonin, high dopamine thing.
I stopped walking with headphones in and it made me tune a lot more into my environment. -
@Hussle1738 I get the same effect from low dose prog and preg. Not sure why. I actually did not expect females to be so responsive to progesterone in males, but it is one of the "higher" hormones nontheless.
I think it might be because it has a beautifying effect on me, meaning my skin looks better and I have less water retention. Unfortunetly it makes me anxious, i guess a GABA-receptor thing. -
I’ve had a similar experience. Once I went to meet a group of girls with some guy friends and I’m always pretty outgoing around girls but I immediately noticed something felt different in how they responded. I was playfully attacked immediately, like I was being targeted or singled out. I’ve had this sort of thing happen several times before but something about this time in particular was extra dramatic and over the top. When I got home I realized I rubbed progest-e on my neck.
The same thing happened around other girls when I used progest-e another time. Not sure how much it even had to do with the progest-e but I would imagine there could be some kind of pheromonal effect as many have speculated before.

@nate Haha yes crazy could be phermonal. What dosage did you apply to your neck? ProgestE dissolved or by itself? Also do you notice a difference from topical and oral
administration. -
Women and people in general can sense when someone is in a good energetic state. Considering the powerful metabolic properties of progesterone it makes sense that they're perceiving you differently or you are able to notice your surrounding environment more.
-
I think about two drops rubbed onto my neck and yes just progest-e by itself. I definitely notice a difference between topical and oral. Oral feels much more vivid, increased perception of my environment and calm feeling, less so topically.

Definitely could be
