Vitex... yes or no?!

Question

I am looking into trying Vitex to stop me pre-menstration spotting and to help legthen my luteal phase. I was wondering if anyone has success using this? Also when in my cycle should I start it and how much? Thank you! Hope BFP to all the mommas out there ❤

Answer

This is my second month using Vitex. Last month I noticed I ovulated on CD 17 instead of my usual CD 19. I also normally have horrible PMS, and I noticed my symptoms were a lot milder last month. The one thing I didn't get last month that I wanted was a few extra days added to my luteal phase. Rather than starting the evening of 27, I started the morning of CD 28. I am hoping for better results next month. However, I have to say I really do feel better overall when on Vitex than I have in the past.

Answer

I used vitex for 6 months and it didn't work for me sadly but may work for you.

I am trying B COMPLEX vitamins this cycle to help with my Luteal phase. I read a lot about B vitamins helping with lengthening the luteal phase and am hoping it will work. My temp always drops at 8/9DPO and then I start my period by 10/11 DPO. I don't spot, but when I do a CM check, it's tinged with blood so basically the same as spotting. 😭 I feel your pain, I have a doctor appointment on Tuesday and curious what my doctor says. I decided against Vitex at this point because I have regular 28/29day cycles and have read it messed with people. However, I am not ruling it out next cycle. Good luck ❤

Answer

I started chaste tree (same thing i think) this month. I work at a chiropractor office that sells standard process supplements. So i did a little research and thought i would try with chaste tree. I started the day my period ended. Im waiting to see if this is our month or not. I take one a day (that is what bottle said).

Answer

I wanted to update you all that the first month using vitex I got my BFP! I am currently 6 weeks 5 days :) try it if you haven't!

Answer

Not sure if it helps but I took vitex for two weeks, on the second week I had a period for 18 days so I stopped taking it after that.

Answer

Following! I also read that maca root can help with luteal phase spotting if there's a progesterone problem, but haven't tried it myself. I'm trying red raspberry leaf this month and I'll see if it helps with the spotting. It's so annoying 🙄
