Swanson Spearmint Leaf Full Spectrum, 400 mg, 60 Capsules

The Context I’ve been researching the benefits of spearmint for a while—specifically for its anti-androgenic properties and digestive soothing—but drinking 3+ cups of tea a day just wasn't sustainable for my schedule. I decided to switch to these capsules for the convenience and consistency of dosage. Product Quality & Experience • Ease of Use: The capsules are a standard size (easy to swallow) and don't have that chalky texture some herbal supplements suffer from. • Taste/Scent: There is a faint, pleasant minty scent when you open the bottle, but absolutely no "minty burps" or aftertaste, which was a major concern of mine. • Ingredients: I appreciate the transparency of the label. There are no unnecessary fillers or artificial dyes, which is a huge plus for those of us with sensitive systems. Performance & Results I’ve been taking these consistently for 30 days, and here is what I’ve noticed: 1. Skin Clarity: While herbal remedies take time, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in the hormonal congestion around my jawline. 2. Digestive Comfort: These are excellent for post-meal bloating. They seem to settle the stomach much faster than peppermint oil, which can sometimes be too "sharp" for my reflux. 3. No Side Effects: I haven't experienced any jitters or stomach upset, even when taking them on a relatively empty stomach. Pros & Cons ✅ Pros: • Potent dosage in a single-capsule serving. • Much more convenient than brewing loose-leaf tea. • Gentle on the stomach compared to peppermint alternatives. ❌ Cons: • The bottle is a bit oversized for the quantity of capsules (could be more eco-friendly).

After doing some research on my hormonal acne, I saw that experiments is good at helping. This helps very well. I always am breaking out a week prior to my cycle. However, you should know that this will disrupt your cycle because it’s naturally lowers your testosterone and raises your estrogen., great value for the money and you can tell that they made the product well because of how good it works. The first month I used it. It took a couple weeks to work the second month as soon as I saw a breakout happening I started taking it and it took about a week.

Helps tremendously to reduce my hormonal chin hair growth. No longer have a five o’ clock shadow. PCOS-PMOS approved. This brand has worked the best. No taste and easy to swallow.

Bought this product off of word of good health benefits especially for women. I can tell it’s started to work for me with hormone regulation. I have not seen much change with acne/hirtuism. Product comes exactly like photo and sealed.

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!

I started doing research on how to help my hormonal acne and came across people taking it. I tried my first bottle in November of 2023, and it has HELPED my hormonal acne so much. I knew that I was not going to be consistent drinking the tea every day so, I bought the pill version. When I I started taking it in 2023, I began to see changes in my skin, which brought so much relief because anyone who suffers from HORMONAL ACNE understands how taxing it is on your mental health. Within a few weeks (I was on Christmas break from work) I noticed that my breakouts were not as severe. I would like to clarify: Spearmint did not HEAL my hormonal acne but it plays a MAJOR role in controlling the breakouts. I wanted to try something that was natural to help my acne because after years of dealing with it (2023 felt like the worse) because I began to understand that there must be internal work done in order to help combat the acne. I have still been using it. November of 2026 will be three years that I have been taking spearmint. I wish I had pictures to show, but its worth it! Praying for everyone dealing with acne! One day at a time! :)

I chose to try these out due to a lot of people recommending them to women like me that suffer with PCOS, I’ve been taking them for about three weeks consistently and still can’t tell the difference.

I suddenly started breaking out like I’m 16 again. I’m premenopausal and suddenly had issues trying to manage severe normal acne around my jawline. This helped tremendously!! Just a few days in of taking 2 pills a day and I notice a significant difference. Will continue to use and buy this product. Forget the dermatologist who told me it’s just makeup and I should switch…

I'm speechless and so happy. It seems to be working. This condition has caused me so much distress, and I'mpleasedd to have found this supplement.

Used for 2 months (ordered second bottle from another website because out of stock on amazon, it hasn't reached yet) and definitely saw a reduction (not 100%, around 60%) in hirsutism. No improvement in my moderate acne. Stopped spotting. Regularised flow. Took 1 capsule at night after dinner. Your mileage may vary. I was working out 30-40 mins a day and eating home food, no strict dieting, but after my PCOD diagnosis, even working out didn't help me alone, so I definitely attribute some success to this.

Seems to do what I need it to do. Hormones are starting to balance. I've lost some weight too which is almost impossible to do with PCOS.

My back acne vanished after 2 months after using this and primrose oil capsules together twice a day !

Works well.
