Hi annon,

Thank you for your precise answer. I do not think I have bashed anybody, the opposite has happened many times and I tried to neglect it. On the other hand, many-many of my questions went unanswered (mostly the uneasy ones...) Unfortunately I am not aware who is living where, but if you check my postings, I have made remarks on the unavailability of Diane in the US, so I am aware. The question of getting drugs illegally is a tricky one, but Diane is registered all over in Europe, so it may not be so dangerous. In fact I have participated in its registration in Hungary and personally know the pharmacologist who headed the team developping it... Thank you again, and considering your info I am not against using Saw Palmetto.
