I read that high testosterone (PCOS) could be lowered pretty quickly by spearmint tea. Loving a good bit of science, I had my testosterone levels drawn, and they came back at 56. I started drinking at least two cups (usually 4-5 haha) of spearmint tea every day for a month. I had my testosterone drawn again this week, and it's down to 35! It has never been tested this low, so I'm very pleased! I wondered if anyone else had tried it.
EDIT: According to FF, I've just ovulated for the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE without Clomid or Femara on my second month of spearmint tea! I'm so impressed! I wish I had known about this sooner!
So I'm changing the title and making this a group for any Cysters out there who want to join us on our spearmint journey!

(Note!: Avoid teas with lemon balm, lemongrass, lemon verbena, and/or chamomile if you are or may be pregnant. There is debate over whether or not these are safe during pregnancy. Best to be on the safe side! Always research the ingredients of your herbal teas to make sure they're safe!)
Green Tea:
Green tea can contain the same amount of caffeine as regular black tea, so consume in moderation. No more than two cups a day if you're watching your caffeine.)
