Oh, you reminded me, I forgot to say that when I was taking SP my period was delayed. I thought that was weird but someone on this site said they were sensitive in that way and that something like SP even delayed their period, so I don't know how common it is. I don't remember if she also experienced acne.
Writing this out it seems like, at least for me, SP and PC seem to do the opposite things for me; SP delayed my period and (I think) caused acne & PC causes it to come early and clears up acne.
I stopped the SP a few months ago when I was breaking out and started to really think that was the cause but it didn't clear up for a couple months, until I tried the PC. I wonder if the Vitex would've cleared it up?
*One question I have is I don't know if I should keep using PC if it's always gonna bring on my period? I guess I could take it when I'm suppose to get my period but I read that progesterone levels rise around the 18 day of your cycle that's why I was taking it btw days 18 and 26 of my cycle?
I was thinking of getting spearmint tea so that I think I'll do and I'm scared of SP.
For some reason I'm a little scared of PM; I just don't want to break out again and I wonder what the extra estrogen might do
Okay, here's the ingredients in my progesterone cream:

Oddly enough there's SP in my PC??
It says there's 20 mg of progesterone in one pump, I would use one pump a day after shower on my breasts.
*I don't know if there's anything else in the PC beside progesterone that might have cleared the acne or why in general PC brings on my period.
I hope my explanation wasn't confusing, I type too much
