Thanks hearts. I'll talk to you on my thread. Sorry too WishClean! B PS I'm sure you still look great hearts. Pshaw thanks <3 Hi ladies, sorry I missed some of these posts. Feel free to conti...

WOW! Thank you WishClean for your comprehensive research once again! This makes so much sense. Since last summer I’ve been so unhappy because I couldn’t figure out why I’d be getting acne while on—onc...

Thank you so much for the encouragement about losing the weight caused by inositol! It makes me feel better. (: 10-15lbs makes a big difference on my frame and like you said before, it won't budge eve...

Hey hearts,   For some reason when I went to amazon.ca and tried to purchase it, at the payment stage it said 'cannot be delivered to your location' or whatever. Perhaps because I live on an isl...

Please do not apologize for the long post, I appreciate the detailed information. I’m glad you told me about the instability of indole-3-carbinol, it is in higher quantities in Estrosmart than DIM, s...

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is the precursor to DIM. From what I found back in researching the differences between the two, DIM is more stable and has less potential side effects. Here is an article that ...

michi31, Progesterone (and estrogen) is at its highest during the third trimester. At delivery, both progesterone and estrogen drop significantly, while prolactin levels continue to rise. Using natura...

Yes, and you even replied to at least one thread about this before... I'll reply anyway to hopefully help you or someone out... My hair shed quite a bit on spiro. It slowed down after quitting b...

He just kept referring to it as 'the main herbal mix' without elaborating what exactly would go in it and stated that it would be hormonal balance, liver support and something for anxiety. I should of...

I've never seen a naturopath but I am familiar with the concept. I just had to reply because I wanted to say, you should DEFINITELY find out what is in the "herbal mix" before you continue to take it....

Hi all: I know this has been asked before, but I am looking for some advice on Spiro and body acne. I've been on Spiro 50mg for about 6 weeks. Had an IB with cysts on my face, but now that they hav...

I wouldn't worry about it, Matt — the supplements you are on are both very mild and are normal doses, even for those not trying to treat acne. In my opinion, you would only need to worry about develop...

I took DIM Plus (made by Nature's Way) which worked for me too. I'd take it again if needed in the future. Here's a link and some info: Ingredients Per Serving (2 Capsules): 100mg BioResponse DIM C...

I'm sorry that you're struggling, SamuiLover! But please don't lose hope, as there are countless options to try. Also, remember that stress and focusing on problem skin only makes it worse. Try to sta...

Took it for insomnia some years ago... didn't help or hurt my skin. Didn't help with insomnia either (NPC was my cure), but everyone is different. Here are some more topics on the forum about it:

Hey ladies, hearts, my regimen now consists of spiro, metformin, zinc and vitamin D. I really didn’t want to go back to metformin and be stuck taking two pharmaceuticals but, sadly, nothing I tried s...

@ hearts, glad you are losing weight! Yes, I think thin women tend to gain weight on anti-androgens, that's just one of those things we have to put up with for clear skin. The only time I actually los...

Wow, I didn't even think of that. And there I was wondering how I could have gained 5 pounds in just a week hitting my brand new high. So it could be inositol? Crazy. I have taken it for 2 months now....

Hey all!♥ Question to those taking inositol — have any of you gained weight taking it? I just finished my second bottle of inositol (I've taken 200 pills total, about one a day so that makes ab...

I'm going to take it for about 6 months. I check my lab work every single month to monitor everything. And Yes I agree it's a strong drug. But like I've said over and over the people who have these ba...

I have had this happen to me too, in the past. From what I understand, not all acne comes to the surface of the skin and there are many different types. I remember some of my cysts would never go awa...

I have heard the same thing... more specifically that androgens are elevated in the morning. From my experience, however, it doesn't make any significant difference either way. The important thing is...

I am having such a bad time with acne.....i get 4-5 new painful heads every week... More than falling hair,I am stressed out because of my face.Its completely covered up by acne and scars.....And the ...

How long do you plan to take accutane every other day? I don't care what the dose is, it's still accutane and it's still a very strong drug. There is a huge list of side effects that can happen by ta...
