Hi timarie!


I'm now starting my PM program! I'm thinking of taking something to reduce my testosterone level. I believe it's not too high! I have little facial hair.
when I was younger, I had PCOS. but today, I have no more. I don't know if it's common to disappear, but It's been normal ovaries for about 4 years from now!

So is saw palmetto not appropriate for me? what you are taking as anti-androgen? It has a good effect to balance the estrogen increase of pueraria mirifica?

Hey Mary!

I personally do not know a whole lot about PCOS. BUUUT I can recommend you to two great antiandrogens! I am taking Chinese Skullcap and Spearmint. If you look at post #92 on my bust thread (the one I recommended you see in your Fenugreek question thread ), Abi explains the difference between Saw Palmetto and Chinese Skullcap and Spearmint, if that will help you with making your decision! And, you can always ask Abi herself

And the antiandrogens don't "balance the estrogen increase" but I assume you mean that they will be good enough to bring your testosterone down enough to help with your body's utilization of the new phytoestrogen hormones brought in from PM? If so, then yes, it should be, as far as I know.

And congrats on being PCOS free for the past 4 years! That is great.
