Question about using spearmint tea for alternative health?

I have read that spearmint tea has been proven to reduce curb hirutism in women by controlling the release of androgens and testosterone.





I have been experiencing unexplained infertility. Have had many tests, but not the follicle stiumlating yet to determine if my hormone levels are off.





Do you think, in theory, that spearmint tea would help regulate my hormones (and cycle)?

It would certainly be worth a try. See if you can find a naturopath or homeopathic doctor in your area. I have known many ladies who had trouble with this, and have then gone on to conceive children without the need for western medical intervention. Definitely a bonus! :) Also, check with midwives in your area, I don't know what part of the U.S. you are, but here in TX they are plentiful and full of great referrals for physicians offering alternative medical approaches. Bless you sweetie in your pursuit of having children!
