My husband and are TTC but I haven’t had my period in almost two years, which leads me to believe that I’m not ovulating. I’m 21 years old, and my periods have never been regular. I went to the Dr. and they did a lot of blood test and an ultrasound and everything came out fine, prolactin fine, thyroid fine, ovaries healthy, but still no period. I wouldn’t say I’m under a lot of stress either so I don’t think that could be it. The next step was to go to a fertility specialist, but I want to try natural/alternative medicine first. So far I have bought Vitex, Stinging Nettle, and Evening Primrose Oil but I don’t know how to take them. They come in capsules that can be opened. I cant find a herbal medicine specialist in my area!
Thanks for helping!
I have a bottle of Maca as well

First, let me say that I am EXTREMELY sensitive to everything I put in my body- any time I take any medicine I experience the side effects (even if I don’t read them before hand, its not psychosomatic!!!) I can’t handle caffeine because of its effects on me having PMS, and I don’t do sugary foods, etc. etc. to prevent it- Anyway, to the point-
Recently I had a really bad cold that turned into sinusitis, in attempt to clear my system of it I drank an herbal tea blend three times a day for a week, and now i am extremely irritable, moody and depressive- I’m wondering if anyone can tell me if this herbal blend could be a contributing factor?
The tea contained:
eucalyptus leaf- 210 mg
Licorice root- 175 mg
Slippery elm bark- 175 mg
wild cherry bark- 175 mg
elecampane rhizome- 140 mg
marshmallow root- 35 mg
Proprietary blend of:
spearmint leaf
west indian lemongrass leaf
lemon peel
stevia leaf
lemon myrtle leaf—— combined 840 mg
Thanks! I really appreciate it!

The FDA plans to classify all herbs, supplements, and vitamens as drugs!

Yes, I got it off a TV show (Private Practice).
The man works with oils, herbs, scents, and stuff like that to heal people.
Just natural remedies and natural medicine.
I don’t think this is Aromatherapy, because I thought that Aromatherapy was just working with oils.
I would really like to know what this is called, because its something I’m very interested in and might pursue a career in this type of medicine.
thank you!

What are the best remedies?? (Herbal, EO’s, minerals, vitamins, chinese herbs, supplements, crystals, anything at all ALTERNATIVE—but NO marijuana).
It’s inoperable so I politely ask that the conventional/Western medicine proponents please skip this question as my M.D. told me that he can nothing for me. Thank you.
