Hi girls, how r u all doing? Hope everything is ok. I havent been in the forum for @ a week coz I was in holiday.
Anyway, I did a hormonal test (blood analysis) and the result is that I have more than I should testosterone in my body... And the doctor working there told me that this is a "sensitive" case and that I should take medication to do the things normal...
My questions are: Is this the problem that my breasts are so small?! When I took herbs what has happened in my body? I have had also problems with the heart, often palpitations etc...
Now I have stopped waiting for your advices and for a consult with the doctor.
Maybe all this questions are discussed before and I apologize, but I havent too much time these days. Can someone tell me where should I read it?
Wish all the best to all of U!

The high testosterone could be a reason why you have small breasts, it tends to make you have small breasts and slim hips and butt and put on weight around the stomach like a man.
Taking herbs may help you but will probably have no effect until you take the meds for a while to get your hormones sorted, then you may be in the same position as everyone else starts from or if you're lucky the meds will cause breast growth themselves or if you're unlucky the meds will interfere with your digestion and herbs will have no effect (I think I have this) - have a think about suction pumps as you can use these whether your hormones are balanced or not.
The palpitations are probably anxiety, the doctor may prescribe beta blockers if necessary and will do any other sort of test like ECG to monitor the heart if he thinks it's necessary.
What actual symptoms do you have? Do you take birth control pills? Which country are you in?
Lots of us have these sort of problems so don't panic, there's loads of info on the internet, the best thing is that now you've had a diagnosis you can get some treatment and things should get better xx

Really thanx for your support. Now I live in Germany. I went yesterday to my doctor with the previous analysis and he will study them... After I will go to a specialist and he will do some more analysis.
The doc also said that the results can also change due to the days of the period. I havent exsess of hairs in my body and I have never thought that I could have that... anyway...
Cant wait to see the next results!
A VERY BIG THANK YOU TO LOISE THAT TOLD TO CHECK MY HORMONES! U are a real help in this forum

Since I have stopped the pills (Breast actives) I havent felt anymore palpitations, or maybe its just a coincidence. I was taking Microgynon 30 for a couple of months and I stopped also that. I just wanted to let my body a lil bit in peace.
My boyfriend is very skeptical and he likes nothing of what I do. We have had big argues about the breast stuff that I was taking. I felt more stress and in panic for my health coz of this.
The thing is that I have one bottle of WU at home (I wanna give it a try), but I wait first for the results of the next analysis... I have still hope that I can change sth...

Hi Kessy,
Glad you're getting sorted! Just wondered if you felt better on the pill or off it? I personally feel much much much better on it, I have pretty much all the PCO symptoms off the pill and pretty much no symptoms on it. So you may think you're resting your body by stopping but actually that may have balanced you out more.
Good luck with your test results X

Hi Louise,
Thanx for being here again. Uffff, I had a stressful period all this time... I stopped with the pill to see how would it be and the doctor told me to not start anything till the next results.
Yeah, I'll be waiting. I dont wanna harm myself. I read so many posts of U this hour in the Brava forum and I find them helpful for me. I didnt know that U have used it before (this is coz I'm new here). Congrats about your results.
Take care!
