i found this ... wow it actually has more benifits then i thought...
Why People Use This Herb:
Abdominal pain

Fungal Infections
Gynecological disorders
High Blood Pressure
kidney problems
Pain
Rheumatism
Diabetes
Commission E has approved cinnamon for use when there is complete loss of appetite and dyspeptic complaints. Cinnamon will cause increased intestinal activity.
In addition, folk medicine internal uses include infantile diarrhea, chills, influenza and worm infestation. Cinnamon is used eternally for cleaning wounds. Indian medicine used cinnamon for toothaches, nausea and vomiting as well as halitosis (bad breath).
Studies done by Japanese researchers shows that Cinnamon contains a substance that is both anti-fungal and anti-bacterial. It also helps control other virulent actions by micro-organisms including the bacteria that causes Botulism and Staph. Aureus, which causes staph infections and impetigo. Many fungi and molds produce aflatoxin, which is a potent poison and carcinogen. Cinnamon has been shown to be devastating to them. It has also been shown to suppress E. coli (which is a common contaminant causing food poisoning) and Candida albicans (which is the common cause of yeast infections).
Cinnamon works to calm the stomach and is helpful in chest, back, and neck pain.
Cinnamon is used by many people to naturally lower their blood sugar if it is high. It is often taken with meals by capsule.
It reduces milk flow.
It will also stop a uterine hemorrhage and excessive menstrual flow. It has been used for discomfort and pain in menopause. Not recommended for use during pregnancy in doses higher than you would find if it is used as a seasoning in foods.
To make cinnamon tea: Pour 1 cup of hot water over approximately 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon powder. Strain after 10 minutes, if desired. A cup of cinnamon tea can be drank 2 to 4 times a day.

Mya, I never got AF while on Met or anything else, except Provera brought it on occasionally. however, I took Provera in Sept and it brought it on. I have had TWO consecutive months of regular AF here with the Cinnamon. I'm crossing my fingers for a third.
I was referred to an OB/GYN and will be seeing her in the next 2.5 months (she's booked solid). I guess it's a her...I don't know! LOL!!
