Morning ladies!

I know there have been some threads about Symplex F on here in the past. It's interesting, though -- it seems that people who advocate holistic healing (herbs instead of birth control pills) endorse Symplex F. But it is made of cow hormones and uteri! So how is that any different than bcp? Maybe they're real hormones, but it's still supplmenting your body with hormones instead of reminding it how to make its own.

Anyone know more about this?

First, I have to say that Symplex F (in conjunction with a few other SP products) did wonders on helping us conceive. My only thoughts on the matter (which aren't terribly profound, perhaps) are that you don't take Symplex F by itself. Usually with PCOS, you take it with Ovex P. The Symplex is supplementing your hormone level, but doing it in a natural way that your body recognizes, thus helping it to restore healthy hormone levels. Given time, the ovex will help your body do this independently and the Symplex will no longer be needed. Then the ovex will no longer be needed, either.

Just my best guess.

As you can see, my NUCCA chiro has a great track record with me. I always conceive the cycle following a correction. I never had a regular cycle until I saw him and following the vitamin regimen.
