I was doing some research into natural versions of Clomid and came across how effective Black Cohosh has been for women with PCOS in not only helping achieve pregnancy but also regulating cycles, minimizing PCOS symptoms (such as absent periods, heavy bleeding while on period, and mood swings) and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this or could recommend an alternative.

Awesome!!

I have tried myo-inisitol to replace metformin. In clinical trials it actually preformed better than metformin. I have also used Licorace root, maca (which works amazing for libido and over all mood and balance), decaffinated green tea and false unicorn.

I love that you were doing research into natural alternatives. I haven't had any personal experience with this one but, I have worked with a few others and seen better results than I did with the western medicine. I am interested to see how the Black Cohosh works for you.

I think the Black Cohosh may be working! I am experiencing ovulation pain and had ovulation bleeding today! I'm trying to not get my hopes up too much, but I am hopeful!

What natural alternatives have you tried?
