Swanson Spearmint Leaf (Mentha Spicata) - Full Spectrum Herbal Supplement Supporting Digestive Health & Mild Stomach Issues - Natural Formula Supporting Health & Wellness - (60 Capsules, 400mg Each)

As a 30-something woman who's been managing PCOS for years, I’m always skeptical of supplements but after doing some research on spearmint tea and its benefits for women with PCOS—especially for reducing androgens—I decided to give these spearmint tea pills a try. I’m so glad I did!After taking them consistently for about 6 weeks, I’ve noticed some real changes. The most obvious one has been a reduction in stubborn chin hair (ladies with PCOS, you know what I mean). It’s not completely gone, but it’s definitely finer and growing slower. My skin also seems clearer, and I feel like my mood has been a bit more even throughout my cycle, which is a huge win.I love that I don’t have to drink multiple cups of tea every day—these capsules are quick and easy to take with my morning routine. No weird aftertaste, and they haven’t upset my stomach at all.Of course, this isn’t a miracle pill, and I still manage my PCOS through diet, exercise, and other supplements, but this has absolutely earned a spot in my routine. If you’re looking for a natural way to support hormone balance, I highly recommend giving this a try!Pro Tips:✔️ Be consistent—don’t expect overnight results.✔️ Pair with a healthy lifestyle for best results.✔️ Talk to your doctor if you’re on other meds or unsure!

i am going to give a long winded explanation of my experience, but summary: if you’re a female and think your acne is caused by high androgens, BUY THIS!first of all i am 22 and female and have tried EVERYTHING when it comes to hormonal acne — dozens of prescription creams/washes, accutane, spironolactone, daily antibiotics, birth control, etc. and i never dreamed i would find a holistic cure to my acne like spearmint.my full backstory: birth control and spironolactone cleared my hormonal acne, but i found out i can’t take spironolactone because it messed up my period, and i didn’t want to be on the pill so i was at a loss. my skin was getting worse and worse, and was at it’s all time worst this past winter — cystic acne on my cheeks which i never experienced before, acne ALL over my forehead, just acne everywhere a new ones would come everyday. i didn’t want to see anyone and i felt so ugly.then i read this random website about drinking spearmint tea to decrease androgens in females (which are like male hormones thought to cause acne, etc) so i decided to try it — 3 cups/day — with literally zero expectations. within FIVE days my skin was the clearest it had been in months. i was sure i had found a miracle cure. but then, i missed my period and had stomach issues from the tea so i stopped drinking so much and my acne came back. i was DEVASTATED because i didn’t want to take any more prescriptions. in retrospect you’d probably be fine just drinking 1-2 cups per day but whatever.then i found these. these spearmint supplements SAVED my skin! i take them every other day, and they have almost completely cleared my acne. i feel like they help with inflammation and other hormonal issues too. i try to map out when i breakout during my cycle and take more then, but it really feels kind of fool proof. the supplements are 10x more effective at clearing my skin than the tea was, with no more stomach issues and i get my period completely normally! seriously — why don’t doctors tell you this???anyway if i can help just one girl who has suffered from acne for as long as she can remember, i will be so glad! i’ve already gotten on of my friends on the bandwagon and she also swears by spearmint now! seriously, if you’re about to give up hope — try this!

These spearmint supplements are amazing. I’ve been taking them since the end of March, so around 6 months now. I originally started taking them for cystic acne along my jawline and chin that I was getting. I’d been breaking out for years and just lived with it, but it started getting worse, and I mean 1-2 cystic pimples a week, which then take weeks to heal. Since it’s known that acne along the jawline tends to be more hormonal, I started looking up some natural remedies instead of going on birth control. An added benefit was that these would also supposedly help with facial hair. (I have a few thicker hairs on my chin.) I started with two pills a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, and that’s what I continue to take.At first, I noticed that my facial hair was growing back slower and I could go a couple weeks or so between plucking the hairs. But as I’ve continued taking them, the hairs seem to be growing back at their normal pace.As for the acne, I continued breaking out, so I looked into more supplements that could help with hormonal acne. I started taking a “cocktail” of supplements (5 pills in the morning, 3 in the evening), and eventually around May/June, I noticed that my face was CLEAR. Like, it’s never been that clear in years. My face is still clear three months later. I honestly cannot remember the last time I got a cystic pimple. Since I’ve gotten clear, I’ve had maybe 3 small pimples. And the best part is they heal so much faster and are gone in a day or two.Now, the reason these pills are amazing (besides probably helping my acne along with the other pills I take) is they’ve gotten completely rid of my heartburn! Before I started taking these, I was getting heartburn at night 2-3 times a week and having to take a Tums. I’ve taken exactly ONE Tums in the 6 months since I started these spearmint supplements. These have also helped my mom’s IBS flareups tenfold.So while I didn’t get the main benefit I was looking for with these spearmint supplements (or at least not as much as I was hoping), I got another one I didn’t even know I wanted! I’ve purchased these many times over and will continue to do so probably forever.

I’ve been taking these for a little over 4 weeks and I will say I’ve noticed a small difference in my skin. My acne has gotten a little better but it definitely takes time.

This is a great product.I have to improvise though as it made me cough while taking in form of capsules. So I break the capsule and use the powder mixed with honey. So it doesn't make my allergies worse.
