Experiences on vitex please?

Question

Tell me your stories!

Answer

I fell pregnant with vitex! It’s the best recommendation I’ve ever got, it helps boost ovulation and progesterone x but if your period is regular do not take it as it can ruin it, but it’s 50/50

Answer

I started taking Vitex/Chaste Tree Berry- as recommended by my naturopathic doctor. I got my first positive ovulation test in about 6 months within a few weeks of trying it. It also shortened my period to a “normal” length. I previously would bleed 14-15 days and this past month was 6 days!! I’m also taking myo-inositol and Shatavari (all recommended by my doctor), so this could have played into it as well. It’s too early for me to tell it’s effect on my cycle length, but I was gradually increasing month after month. Most recent was 47 day cycles, so I am hoping this helps reduce my cycle length as well.
I wouldn’t change anything without talking to a medical professional, as supplements can really change your body’s processes. 
Good luck!

Answer

My experience has been good so far. I wasnt ovulating and i was having 26 day cycles. 
So i start vitex.
Im on my second month of taking vitex, had a very positive ovulation test (pic included), and last month had a 28 day cycle.
Still early days taking it but my experience has been good so far x

Answer

Bad!! Just my experience! I had irregular periods so I said I try vitex to see will it help but it did the opposite I was later for a further 49days while taking vitex I stoped taking it and boom my period came within days. So I said I give it one more try and maybe it will work on the second go but no
It did the same thing I ended up being way over 50 days late so I said I stop taking it and again once I stoped my period would come on heavy then anything I ever had. I have stoped taking it my periods are not as heavy no clots and more regular even with the help of metformin. If you a good regular it is recommended that you don’t take vitex either. It did noting for ovulation or cm same with evening primrose oil. Now i just take metformin eat well and drink lots lots of water to help cm Which is definitely more noticeable. This is just my experience other people has had great results but people are never tell the bad results either

Answer

I’m interested in the replies as I’ve been debating whether or not to take it. I have a regular ish cycle of 28 - 30 days but I’m 40 so don’t know if I’m ovulating.
