Question
Hi.  I am 38 years old and went off birth control pills in October after being on them for 24 years due to heavy periods.  Needless to say, I now have big issues.  My face, neck, chest & back are breaking out with acne like a teenager.  My periods are now coming every 3 weeks and are heavy.  I do not want to go back on the pill but I cannot endure this much longer.  Is there anything natural I can try?  I have tried echinacea and milk thistle/dandelion.  I was just a little worried about staying on the milk thistle/dandelion because I read it increases insulin production.  Help.  Thanks!

Answer
I can't help you but I suggest you find a naturopath and go see them. It would be too much for me to do without seeing you.  If you can't find anyone I can do a long distance  testing to see what diet and herbs you can take. Just contact me  here.  Jayne
