Rebecca - so cool that you had a normal cycle. congrats!
Gingerpanda - congrats on your pregnancy! Did you take just the tea the cycle you conceived or were you taking anything else?
Yes, I started drinking the tea yesterday (2 cups) and am already through with my first cup for today. I already think its working - I usually get really hungry before midday but today, I am in no hurry for lunch!
This makes me excited! I'm gonna try it. If I have acid reflux do you think the mint will aggravate that?
But it is worth the try! Gonna ask hubby to buy it today.

I was diagnosed with hypothyroid beginning of December, so I have been taking levothyroxine since then. Started the tea around that same time. I was half way through a Femara cycle at the time, and ovulated but didn't get pregnant. This cycle started Deceber 26th. All I was taking was levothyroxine and spearmint tea (well, and prenatal and extra vitamin D3). I actually ovulated on my own, which has NEVER happened to our knowledge, and I got pregnant. My testosterone came down from 56 to 35 between early December and mid-January. Levothyroxine tends to raise testosterone even higher, but mine came down. That has to be the tea. I think the tea had a big impact on my fertility, but I can't lie that the levothyroxine probably helped a lot too, in terms of getting my body back in functioning order. But I would not have ovulated had my testosterone been high.

It does weaken that muscle, so I would be careful. Maybe try one cup and wait to see if it makes your reflux worse. Definitely don't drink it near bed time, as it will really make it worse when you lay down.
Mommie told me to join this group but I dont have PCOS or high testosterone?
Although I was once told i DO have PCOS, i dont.
