Day 5 of drinking that concoction & late last night I got my period (day 78 of my cycle). Very happy about this progress & just thought I'd share the news with all. It's not everything, but it's a start . . .

You sure don't waste any time! Go girl!
Why knows if the yucky tea did the trick, but it's got to be a good sign don't you think?! I'm now hoping now that you're starting from day 1 .... you'll see more regular and frequent (but not crazy frequent) returns to the start of the cycle.

Diagnosed with POF just before turning 32. Have used acupuncture and TCM. I am taking various supplements including multi vitamin, calcium, zinc, flaxseed oil etc. Following osteopenia diagnosis, started HRT on 10 March 05 - reluctantly. I have a fab g/f & we have a lovely dog (lurcher) & a mischievous cat (tabby). We have one son who keeps us on our toes.

OK. Sorry for the play by play on this . . . the period lasted less than 24 hrs. It was a full-on bleed (i.e., not just spotting), but its brevity is cause for concern. I called my doctor's office to go for another day 3 fsh/estrodial test so that we would have another data point -- I have a follow up with my dr next Friday. Now I'm thinking another blood test will probably be pointless. DH thinks I should go anyway.
Help! Any thoughts? Anyone? Man, what an emotional roller coaster this all is.

The blood test will be useful to know what your body is doing. You can use western and eastern medicine together. Congrats on having a period, it's definately something. My accupuncturist thought that it would take her 4 "cycles" before we got anything close to regulating my periods.
A bleed however short is still a step in the right direction.
