Now your probably wondering why I have not mentioned BC for acne and its because its not practical. It does not help your hormones at all it stops the production of your hormones and replaces them with synthetic. And even if it does work its dangerous has lots of side effects and lets face it you cant take it forever, and the longer you take it when you do get off of it, it takes a long time for your hormones to balance out again. And most importantly once you get off of it your acne is always worse from what I've heard. So if you are taking it for acne and trying to get off of it you need to take vitex and get a natural progesterone cream like Natural Balance because when you get off of BC you lack the hormone progesterone. So after you have completely stopped BC start taking the vitex and to speed vitex up take the pro-cream and rub an 1/8teaspoon on the fatty areas of your body twice a day rotating where you apply it. Use the cream for about two months and then lower your does until you completely stop the cream by then the vitex should have kicked in. To continue on vitex it does not release hormones it only helps you balance them so it encourages your body to make the hormones that it is lacking and cut back on the ones that are over producing and can be taken from what I've heard it can be taken for a long time. Now, to get to the more presistant hormonal acne that usually includes painful acne all the time, normal acne you cant get rid of, darker hair on the face and other areas, hair loss, fat you cant get rid of, (you can still be skinny and get the other symptoms) dull skin, slow healing skin. Now you dont have to have all these symptoms these are just some that are most common. To get rid of the darker hair I have heard good results from stinging nettle, saw palmetto and spearmint tea. You can find nettle at GNC or Natures way. The best way to take saw P. is two 160mg liquid extact capsules from NOW brand you can get 120 softgels for a nice price. Saw palmetto stops the production of androgens that cause hair and nettle helps get it out. Now, for the new product I've heard about that sound very promising is called DIM its a natural supplement gaining popularity because it gets rid of bad estrogens caused by plastics, synthetic hormones and milk among other things. And you may be saying I have darker face hair and hair loss so I have to much male hormones? Why would I want to get rid of any estrogens good or bad!!? Because the more you elevate estrogen the more androgen testosterone gets elevated to try and keep in balance so then you end up in a major imbalance that causes major acne all the time!! So it can be used by men and women!!! I could type out what it does but I will just put up a picture of the box explaining what it does!! Please continue to read after pictures!!

Now there are different kinds but its best to find one without soy isoflavones this brand says it does not contain soy but then it does after that big word in the ingredients so I researched phospaitidylcholine and found it to be letchin which is found in eggs and found that part of the soybean (fiber?) is sometimes used with it but its not the cancer causing soy isoflavones that everyone should avoid. So, some people prefer a brand called Estroblock but it is VERY pricey and I kept coming across this brand as the best and they have the best prices. Ordering off of Amazon is the best price but there are some good companies on ebay I can recommend. Just to let you know I have nothing to do with Natures Way or amazon I just like the companies. You can learn more about DIM on a website called www.thelovevitamin.com IMPORTANT!! I do recommend you research a little before you start any supplement and not take anything if you are on ANY medications.
