Hi, Unfortunately my doctor does not want me to take a hormone/birth control. I was wondering if anyone has heard of or taken Chaste Tree Berry or Vitex? This is an herb that stimulates leutenizing hormone so it is not an actual hormone. I'm a little wary of taking this because herbs are not regulated by the FDA however because i have high liver enzymes the actual hormone/birth control is too risky.

    I haven't taken either.
    Have you tried acupuncture? Might be the key you're looking for! It totally help me with the weight stuff and there were tons of women going for fertility treatment.

    I haven't thought of acupuncture as a way to handle PCOS, I'm going to look into that!
