>>Hey Lodema I'm sorry for what you are going through. I have PCOS and I have tried everything to help it but nothing would help me to feel better until I found about natural progesterone. Did you know that when you have a lot of miscarriages that means you don't have enough of a hormone called progesterone. Progesterone is what keeps the baby inside you. The doctor can't give you natural progesterone, but will give you a fake called Progestin with side effects. Progestin is in birth control it prevents and blocks you from having any natural progesterone. Please E-mail me for more info. I know it will help you.
