VITEX: Yay or Nay?? Discussion.

Question

Have you tried Vitex? Did it work? What was your experience?? What was your dosage??

I'm trying to regulate my cycles and induce healthy ovulation. I haven't had one in over a year until a couple of days ago after taking 4000 mg a day for two days. I really think I took way too much now because it is an extremely heavy flow. 
After doing some research I found out that it's probably the case since vitex boosts progesterone levels. So I'm pretty sure it shot up after two doses. So I decided to skip today's dose all together.

I've also been taking evening primrose (3900 mg) along with fish oil (6000 mg)

Answer

I'm taking two pills of vitex a day and I'm also on metformin my cycle went from 100 days to 65 to now 33 first time in a while I have gotten a period two months in a row ! I'm in my fertile window rn and hoping I get a + opk . Good luck taking it I would give it a chance it's doing good things for me my period 7 days long now instead of 14 as well.

Answer

I was diagnosed with PCOS at 20 (now almost 31) and never had a normal cycle. I would go months without one. I got married about a year and half ago and was on bc for the first time in a long time (nexplanon) and that also messed up my cycle. I got that removed in January because we are TTC #1 and started taking Vitex again (took years ago) two capsules every morning and have had a period every month and positive OPKs when tested! It may not work for everyone but I'm not a fan of medicine if I don't have to take it. So far we are in cycle 4 of TTC with no luck.
