Accepted Answer

Oral supplements: ...of creatine can increase DHT levels.  DHT is, in a sense, a more potent male hormone than testosterone.  Along with strength training, it may increase muscle mass and strength.  Laurel succinate is a breakdown product of creatine but the surfactant SLS doesn't occur naturally. Synthesized SLS absorption from skin is negligible &amp; unlikely to increase  DHT levels in the body.  Helpful?

Accepted Answer

Probiotics: Most people don't need probiotics after taking a course of antibiotics, since the normal bacterial flora of the gut repopulates rapidly after stopping antibiotics. If you have a history of C. difficile, it may be useful to take probiotics, however. Otherwise, studies do not support their routine use. Having said that, there are not usually many side effects, if you do decide to try them. Good luck
