i've noticed that a few people, like myself, are having some problems with acne. i've been using yellow dock for 3-4 days and my skin is now clearer. yellow dock is good for clearing the skin and liver:

it has been tested for ER binding in this study: http://www.cancersupportivecare.com/estrogenherbdata.html and found to have as much ER binding capacity as hops, for instance

it is also helpful for anemia:

I used to use it in pregnance for fatigue (it helps with iron levels without taking iron)...perhaps I will try some and report whether it helps with this fatigue I am experiencing on the herbs, as well as my two nice painful zits.

I will absolutely get this next time I'm at the hfs. One of my main pet peeves is bad skin...and sometimes I don't know what I want more---larger breasts or my clear skin back. Clear, smooth, blemish-free skin is incredibly appealing to me and I find it more erotic and attractive than any size breasts.

I don't have horrible acne, but even just one or two zits on my face is like the plague to me. I'll start taking this stuff after a little more research.

Yeah..my few zits aren't bad...but my blackheads around my nose are back and my pores have gotten huge?! I don't know if i am just noticing more? maybe more self concious like a teenager??? Anyway I tried one of those Biore pore/blackhed strips...and it pulled all the junk out of the pores...but ouch! It made the corner of my eye twitch like when you tweeze certain eyebrow hairs....
painfull and GROSS! I don't think I want that much info about what is in my pores. sick.

I'm with u alcest on that one .Clear blemish free skin is much more appaealing that bigger boobs

My journey i'm having those zits problem . Huge zits right in the crease of my nose just before my period, i have to let my sister squeeze it out for me.Huge things came out,OH my gosh horrible .now i'm left back with black spots oh i hate zits.
