Saw Palmetto is suppose to lower both testosterone and estrogen!  Now don't all go buy it till i have time to research more..

I also found this.  It seems that it will interfere with Redclover and or Soy so it makes me wonder if it would interfere with Vitex as well?

yes this will be for ttc a girl

Peppermint tea was good because it lowered testosterone raised progesterone and stabilized estrogen (some studies say it may raise it)

the new one is suppose to lower testosterone lower estrogen and I still need to research its effect on progesterone

I found that Saw palmentto is a a gental "phyto-progesterone".  Which means it will gradually and gentaly raise progestrone levels without delaying O.  Now I'm going to see if it is safe to take in the 2ww

In some cases, saw palmetto can cause erectile dysfunction and decreased libido. Also, if you have cholesterol problems, saw palmetto might not be the drug for you because it beta-sitosterol.

just wondering, do you take saw palmetto just to TTC girl or only if you have a hormonal imbalance (and are TTC girl)? i am healthy, no problems, but would take it if it helped TTC a girl, just don't know if it might create other problems if you don't NEED it... KWIM?
