Thanks atomic! I feel better knowing that I have a good window of safety ;) I was thinking the SP would be sufficient to deal with the testosterone issue, do you think I could benefit from continuing to drink 3-4 cups of peppermint tea as well as taking the SP? I am also using lavender body, hand and dish soap as well as lotion constantly. I have always thought that I could have high levels of testosterone based on the same signs of such an issue you mentioned in another post. I really want to deal with that because I think that could be a strong factor for me, do you agree? I value your opinion and appreciate all of your time!

I have read things on spearmint tea and testosterone that I thought were very encouraging.

Pep tea ~may~ raise estrogen, and since SP is supposed to lower both test. and estrogen, you may be undoing some of the good that the SP does.

HI! I have a question related to saw palmetto. I read to a woman by here, that SP increased her CM....is it a secundary effect?? doesnt it sway blue?
And another question, the SP delay the O in many of you... Isnt it the opositte that the Vitex do? I mean, I think I have read that vitex makes O a few days early, and now I see SP delay O...I´m confused... :rolleyes:
Thanks in advance!!

Most people find that SP can dry up CM. Sometimes the herbs start off making weird things happen but then by the time another cycle passes it all works out. If you use the antihistamine that should take care of CM.
Both vitex and SP can delay OR make O come early. Unfortunately there's no way to know how it will affect you until you try it, and many times they may start off doing one thing and then after you take them for a couple months, everything goes back to normal again.

Hi Ladies
Do you take the saw palmetto from AF-O?
-
Take 320 mg saw palmetto from CD 1 through the day before you expect to O - it can sometimes delay O and we've been having better luck stopping it a day or two in advance of O day to keep that from happening.
