Dana - I have CVS and Walmart... I will look for some, I need to have some sort of AF... it's unhealthy to go this long. Is CVS a better place to look? I decided when I am finished with my current Vitex, by Natures Way... to get Femaprin, by Natures way, it has 2 different types of Vitex, plus B6. And a tea that contains Don Quai, Vitex, Red Raspberry.... and other herbs.... So... we'll see...

Peggy and Melissa - I had all those symptoms when I was on met, and I put on 25lbs in one month.... I had to stop, because I couldn't afford to gain another pound.

Dana - there is another town about a half an hr away that has a General Nutrition Center, GNC... maybe I should go there.

Yrs ago, before I knew in depth about PCOS... I took Phyto Estrogen everyday from GNC, I lost weight.... had regular AF... and when I ran out... I still had AF for yrs... didn't gain any weight... then AF stopped... and I tried Phyto Estogen again... and it didn't work, so then I tried Natural Progesterone, that didn't work... I had to go back to the dr.... and get provera or prometrium... don't remember, when I went in for my annual she was ok with me taking the phyto estrogen, because it helped me loose weight, and gave me the reg AF... and i actually had a BC that took weight off too.... and it was the only one... because i have gained weight from the BC before.

Well, I better get ready for the day.... looks like I am taking a trip to that distant town.... for NPC.

Yay Faith!! Hopefully...let me see if i can find the ingredients online and compare to mine.. maybe if they are close it will..if our bodies are the same too LOL make sure you have rasberry leaf and not rasberry tea..i got mine from shoprite..i was shocked they had it!
If it taste like Rasberry probably not it...it should taste like a reg tea.

I cant wait to see how this NPC works for you!!

hmmm i dont think yours is natural..which does not have to be a bad thing but my brand has more progesterone in it...so there is a possibility it may not be enough..not 100% but im going to assume.

Here is the one i think you have
http://www.gnc.com/product/index.jsp...entPage=search

and here is the one i get
http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/e...jsp?id=SR-5704

I think mine says 500mg per ounce and yours says 5mg per ounce.

Dana - geepers, that's a big difference in mg.... i sure hope i didn't was 12.00. i am going to save this link, and i may have to get it from here. it just hit me, we have a mom and pop store called the medicine shoppe, i may take a peak there to see what they carry, it's small sooo... we will see. GNC says 10 days garrantee or money back... and with the tea, it says it's all natural, and has red raspberry leaf as one of the ingredients. i was surprised how dark the tea was, it did look very close to reg tea, a little hint of red.... but the box also had raspberry something else in it too, which is probably for flavor. I will be ordering the other tea online, yogi tea is hard to find.

Hey guys I'm back. We had a pretty bad storm that knocked out our power for several days. In other news... AF is 14 days late and still no BFP. So I'm going to use NPC and try again. Babydust to all

Faith- Yes that is a big difference...i would print out the ingredients and see if you can find something comparable..make sure it says natural and USP progesterone..i think that is suppose to be better for you.

Linds- Welcome back! i was wondering where you went sorry about AF and BFN.. ((Hugs))
