I am sure this has already been mentioned, but I haven't seen it around the forum recently, so I wanted to put it out there... anyways, supposedly drinking spearmint tea helps in lowering your testosterone levels. Although there is not much supporting evidence on this, I did have success with it so far... well it helped me O and hopefully it aided in me getting my  . I am now in the TWW and will know come April Fool's day if it did the trick... I will try my best to keep posted, but if any ladies have a question, feel free to ask and I will answer it to the best of my ability.Good luck and lots of  !

Not 100% sure, but I know there are similarities between peppermint and spearmint tea... I don't want to give wrong information though, so I would have to do more research. But I drank 2 cups of spearmint tea a day, one in the morning and one before bed... I did squeeze half a lemon in each cause it tasted horrible  . Anyways, although pessimistic in the beginning my temps did drop and I am now 3dpo  !

yeah I will do anything too to be fair I think herbal/fruit teas are an acquired taste, you kinda have to force yourself to like them  I started drinking green tea because of the health benefits and it was so disgusting but now I love it! |

I too have high testosterone levels (which can have embarassing side effects  ) I was on a medication called spirnolactone but I quit taking it because it didn't seem to be helping. I started drinking tea last month and it helped!! Good luck to you and I hope you get your April 1st BFP!!-Rachel |
