I am new, love this site. Has anybody talked about licore and spearmint in combination. I started licore extract and spearmint extract. ?????
Hi and welcome.
You do need to be careful with Liquorice because it can have all sorts of nasty effects on your heart if you take it for too long ( I seem to remember a month is the limit, but I could be wrong about that).
If you take alook at Isabelle's thread ( "Long time hops and FG user") you'll find various references to both liquorice and spearmint.
Hello carmen.
Welcome to the board.
Pansy-Mae, I think you're right about the time limit with licorice. The flat2fem book recommends using it only 4-6 weeks at a time.
You CAN take it longer with TONS of other things to combat it's side effects... but... I wouldn't ever suggest it.
What exactly are you trying to do? licorice and spearmint tea are both anti-androgens, and spearmint tea is kinda a mild one...
I'd suggest instead Saw Palmetto and Chinese Skullcap for an anti-androgen combo.
You still need an estrogen to do any growing, and for us, there are really only three options. Pueraria Mirifica, Bovine Ovary, or both.
You should also take a Progesterone Cream with PM, but not BO.
I actually went estrogen dominant from increasing my PM dose by just one drop and not increasing my PC.
