PCOS - Should I take Vitex AND Soy Isoflavones?

I am on 1500mg of Metformin a day. It's brought my cycles closer together from being 5-8 months between periods to 2-3 monhts.

I also take Vitex, Fish Oil, Baby Aspirin, Cinnamon with Chromium, and Inositol.

I have heard mixed reviews about taking SIs for 5 days to get the little egg moving.

I would love to hear about other's experiences and thoughts.

U definitely should not take Soy if u have thyroid issues or PCOS. It can mess with TSH levels and the absorption of medication, it can also increase the number of cysts u get. Soy isnt for everyone, make sure to do ur research before using it, it can really mess up ur hormones. Good luck!

Thanks! I kind of thought that was true about Soy. I don't have thyroid issues but with the PCOS I am trying to avoid anything that does harm rather than good.
