Hi Karen,
That's a very good sign. Once you found something that works for you, keep going!
Hi cupcake,
Ginie used vitamin E for this purpose. Maybe her dose is in her program thread. I normally avoid vitamin doses higher than the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), but my current multivitamin contains 250 %: 30 mg α-tocopherol equivalents (45 I.E.).

My fenugreek dose is 2,500 mg. You need 2,500 * 129 lbs / 176 lbs = 1,800 mg.
You can start the program like this, but you may break out. If your skin gets oily, add an anti-androgen before you get acne. Spearmint tea may be enough. It may be useful to keep saw palmetto in the emergency cabinet. Use it only when you have androgen symptoms (oily skin, acne, scalp hair loss, facial or body hair, high libido, upbeat mood at a time of the month when you normally feel depressed). Continuous use may grow big thighs or cellulite.
After six months, the anti-androgen in PM, β-sitosterol, will be enough to keep the acne away. So don't buy a large stock of spearmint tea or saw palmetto. You may have a useful alternative in the kitchen or in your multi-vitamin already: peppermint, licorice, zinc, vitamin B6, pumpkin seed, flax, rye, barley, or other whole grain cereals.
