Need advice about Vitex.

[smallhelen]

Hi ladies. Another month, another disappointment. Part of the problem may be my pathetic LP - only 9 days again this cycle, which is about my average. I've had limited success with increasing my B vitamins, which worked for a while, but my AF got shorter. So I am looking at Vitex. Has anyone got good/bad feedback about using it? Am almost starting to get desperate now...

i tried vitex for 2-3 cycles. if i remember correctly, my irregular cycles were
becoming a little less irregular.

i did read some negative things about vitex, so i decided to stop taking it.
we also went the iui route, so that really sealed the deal on stopping
herbal supplements.

i think it's definitely worth a conversation with your doctor before trying different supplements.

good luck to you on your journey

I use Vitax, it definitely helped with my irregular periods and progesterone levels. I was taking it the first time I got pregnant.

We're now trying for #2 now, so I started taking Vitax (1000mg/day) a couple of months ago. I've never had any problems with it, but it can take several months before you see an effect.

Good luck!
