Oww Rosance,
Poor thing
How long did you continue milk thistle? It's a phyto-estrogen. Stopping fenugreek, together with the natural drop in progesterone on day 25, may have triggered estrogen dominance. On top of that, fenugreek affects blood sugar and blood pressure, both ways, depending on timing. If you stop it, you may have lower blood pressure than before you started it. You will probably have to supplement iron too now, to get going again.
And karen,
I don't know a good brand of SP. Pansy Mae used SP for quite some time. The plant is indigenous to the southeast. I'd pick a manufacturer who is based there. Oh well, knowing me, I'd find out who sells dried berries so you can see, smell, and feel them and compare if a new batch or another source is different
