My first response was to go grab Rosemary Gladstar Stlick's booklet
"Herbs for Women's Health".  Seems we think the same.  The ordering info
int the back says to write to :
Rosemar Gladstar Slick
PO Box 420
E. Barre, VT 05649.
The cost listed is $5 for each title in the "Healing Ways" sereies +$1
shipping, but I've had my copy for years, so the prices might not be
accurate anymore.

Incidentally, the hormone balancers she recomments are:Wild Yam,
licorice, Vitex (aka chasteberry, aka monksberry) and Dong Quai.  All
things I've heard recommended here.  While I've never had trouble going
off the pill, Vitex helped a good friend of mine get back to normal
afterwards

Good luck, Dorothy.
