In the same time I took vitamin D3 that literally increased by 1/3 and my testosterone still decreased.
I guess the biggest indicator for if it is for you or not is if you feel better when taking it - It might mean that you need it if you are 'structurally' deficient in this vitamin/mineral.
I guess it does not have the same effect on a PCOS or normal healthy body - If you can get a test done to make sure you are heading in the right direction. You might not need anything? Please see the articles below
I can confirm I have no beard lol but my skin is much clearer and hair (on my head) is thicker so don't worry about this !!! lol

Thank you for the links, Neverloosehope.
I do feel good, I feel like I'm sleeping better thanks to magnesium but so many studies state that it increases testosterone which is making me worried that it will interfere with/hinder my NBE program. Then again, I just read another article that's practically saying the opposite (http://www.healwithfood.org/hirsutism/diet.php) so I'm confused! The fact that you haven't grown a beard makes me feel better
