How BrandName works
BrandName works by supporting the ovaries that don’t release eggs regularly. It stops the signal that informs the brain that estrogen is low, and then the brain sends “fertility chemicals” (FSH and LH) to the ovaries. These signals push the ovaries to grow and release an egg, giving women a better chance of getting pregnant.
