Anyone using Vitex with irregular cycles?
Hi Ladies,
Has anyone been using Vitex with irregular cycles and having success?
I have irregular AF ranging from 27-43days long. I stopped taking the pill years ago (6) and had to be given a cycle of progesterone to bring on my AF. After that my AF has never been a 'normal' 28days. It's so crazy we spend half our lives trying not to get pregnant and the other half trying. I'm just at the point I'll try anything really.
Any advice is much appreciated!

I would follow up with your doctor. Your cycles aren't that irregular even with the 40 day ones. I see possible blood work to rule out pcos. Maybe try a diet change reduce carbs just in the event you do have a mild case if pcos it will help. Voted can help but it can hurt. I have pcos and cited did absolutely nothing. It's natural so you have to take it regularly and a lot of it and it can take three months to make any changes to your symptoms. To be honest not sure of tour age but I'd go straight to an M.D. I wanted too long to do something myself and I regret it as I am aging quickly lol if you think there could be a problem don't be afraid to speak with even your general doctor. It sucks having crazy cycles. Do you monitor with ovulation strips just to get an idea of what your lh levels are?

Thanks for the reply @Michelle22879!
I have booked an appointment with my Dr. I had not heard about the carb thing but will definitely give that a go! I think I will try anything at this rate. I'm 34 and desperately want to start a family. I have started taking my temp every morning at the same time so hope that this can be a good tool on this journey.
