So maybe look into other anti-androgens that you could try (I've heard great things about Spearmint tea). I've only tried Saw Palmetto, so I can't personally say how well others might work.Thank you for reply! According to that test I have normal estrogen and low progesterone. I'm planning to get my sex hormones tested too, but have to wait with it. In my country hormone testing is too complicated, and also they do it at any time of the cycle and all the hormones at once, I'm not sure the results would be correct.
Why don't you get your hormones tested if it's a concern? Especially if you've already had your thyroid tested. That's the only way to know for certain where your hormone levels lie. Although if you for some reason decide not to do that, you can take this online test to see what possible hormone problems you may be having (assuming hormones are causing the problems):

For now, I've already ordered saw palmetto, flaxseed oil, wild yam and fenugreek. May be I should have ordered only Saw Palmetto?
