I am 43 and had a lot of period problems, irregular cycles, too long cycles, etc. After some research, I have used myo-inositol 4100 mg daily, vitex -40 mg daily and wild yam supplement -880 mg daily and also wild yam cream (a small quantity twice a day alternating the part of the body). They suggest to use any supplement to regulate the cycle for 3 months to see the results. However, after around 1 month, my cycle has arrived just on time and lasted 4 days, the next cycle was again regular. So it worked perfectly for me. The wild yam should be used 3 weeks and you should stop doing wild yam for 1 week every month (best to stop it on the first day of the cycle). For PCOS, the best product I guess is the myo-inositol together with vitamin B6 (which helps to the liver to trash the extra oestrogen).
Very, very informative, thank you....I was using Vitex for a few weeks, didn't experience anything wrong but I just felt to stop... then after a year or two I started to take it again whilst doing further research. I think that when the body goes through side effects I don't think it's anything to do with what 'God has created for us through Nature', but what we eat, drink and our DNAs are different along with our thoughts. 🙏🏽
Thank you so much for sharing these informations. I take a lot of PCOS suplements. I suspected that vitex could be causing some unexpected side effects. I'll talk to my doctor about this.
My fertility doctor found my FSH is elevated at 23, do you think Vitex would be good for me? Have lots of skin and bloating issues, rosacea, hives, IBS. Haven’t been able to get pregnant. All started after a miscarriage 5 yrs ago now. I’m 42 yrs old. Periods are regular, about 25 day cycle every month.
So you need an advice of a professional medical doctors for you if you have to continue or stop the medicine.. i was also experieced palpitations but they said it was normal .. maybe due of my anxiety. Hihi
I think it has to be evaluated on a case by case basis by an herbalist or doctor (MD or ND, depending on who you're working with). Since vitex acts on the pituitary, it has a direct impact on everything else that happens downstream as far as hormone production goes. Knowing your hormone levels will allow the doc or herbalist to decide whether both are needed and dosage can be adjusted accordingly.
It made me bleed inbetween periods and gave me itchy skin. Shame, as it worked well on reducing my hormonal breast pain. I was taking 1 x 4mg tablet a day.
Thanks for sharing this. Your experience highlights why I mentioned in the video that many herbalists say vitex is very, very dose-dependent. If you want to continue using it consult with an herbalist or naturopathic doctor.
I have other videos on inositol and herbs that support fertility. You can have at this playlist for those videos: th-cam.com/play/PLzbx9OLG_gWDgASBrgtTlD2BAot9FB9w7.html Keep in mind that even though some herbs/supplements are generally helpful for PCOS, knowing your specific hormone levels makes it easier to choose the right herbs. So, take that into consideration and work a specialist like I suggested in the video, to get a more precise set of herbs for you.
Wow. That video was really honest and informative. Thank you. May I ask for your honest opinion on my problem. I was diagnosed with Depleted ovarian reserve, Also I don’t have menstruation for 6-7 years. I am 40 years old at the moment. Do you think that Vitex can help me getting back my menstruation and maybe ovulating again. Thank you in advance
If you're trying to address things naturally, it's best to seek the help of a natural practitioner (doctor, herbalist, etc.) to come up with a customized diet and lifestyle plan for you. At that time they'll be able to assess if vitex makes sense for you.
Vitex's main action doesn't change from what I described in the video: it acts on the pituitary and affects hormones produces by ovaries. This small study mentions that it helps with some menopause-related symptoms, including hot flashes and anxiety: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6887765/ Also keep mind that during menopause you may benefit from using it combination with other herbs. An herbalist or naturopath can help you determine the best blend for you.
Estrogen is not anything or anything dodo... it's all about ... Hormonal level imbalance.. so you have do this everyday .like 1 . Balanced diet rice fruit vegetable whole grain and healthy fat 2 regular exercise physical cavity and aerobic exercise 3 maintain a healthy wealth underweight or overweight balance eating and exercise 4 manage stress high stress can lead to hormonal imbalance 5 avoid endocrine disruptor 6 consult a healthcare provider Okk ithink you will got it what I trying to say 👍💯
Probably eating a lot of sweet potatoes. I heard that people who don't really have a strong history of twins in their family, but tribes who eat a lot of sweet potatoes increase chances for twins. So a combination of vitex and sweet potatoes.
High plz can you give me some advice, I have a regular period 27-28 day cycle but Iv been spotting bang on 1wk before period, I had a miscarriage 15mths ago and haven't been able to conceive since, since the spotting started my breast hurt nearly all month and iv got milk! Iv started taking vitex hoping this will help as I'm trying to conceive I'm 43 with 3 children youngest been 8, any advice would be greatly appreciated x
Have you seen a doctor to get a thorough hormone test done? Based on everything you've mentioned, it will help a great deal to know exactly where your hormones so that you can choose the right herbs (as well as any other complimentary therapies that may be needed).
Thank you so much for your reply, I have been to the doctors and she sent me for scans to see if is cyst ect but all came back clear, it's so frustrating not to know the cause as you can appreciate my clock is ticking so I'm hoping the vitex works as this is my last hope, iv read spotting is due to low progesterone is this the case? It's so hard to get into the doctors as the moment and are only taking phone appointments xx

Is Yam and Vitex safe with bleeding fibroids? I have estrogen dominance and hypothyroidism

I took Vitex for a few days,it gave me heart palpitations. One was so bad i got very very dizzy. So i stopped.
So you need an advice of a professional medical doctors for you if you have to continue or stop the medicine.. i was also experieced palpitations but they said it was normal .. maybe due of my anxiety. Hihi
I took vitex and the next day I had a panic attack. Never again
I felt dizzy and weak as well but the second day of taking it . I never noticed it again
She should explain what PCOS is
Polycystic overy syndrome
Ive tried vitex and this is very effectiveeee...^_^
What are your thoughts on using natural
Progesterone cream alongside Vitex? I’ve read mixed thoughts on this.
I think it has to be evaluated on a case by case basis by an herbalist or doctor (MD or ND, depending on who you're working with). Since vitex acts on the pituitary, it has a direct impact on everything else that happens downstream as far as hormone production goes. Knowing your hormone levels will allow the doc or herbalist to decide whether both are needed and dosage can be adjusted accordingly.
Good question
Wild yam is helpful
My cycles went from 28 to 21 days about 2yrs ago. Im 39... can vitex help me get my 28 day cycle back
It all depends on the underlying causes of the cycle change.
Maca powder helped me
It made me bleed inbetween periods and gave me itchy skin. Shame, as it worked well on reducing my hormonal breast pain. I was taking 1 x 4mg tablet a day.

By taking vitex what's the worst thing that could happen xx
Will this help me get my sex drive back?
I haven't heard of it being used specifically for this purpose. But it all depends on which hormone(s) are off balance.
Try maca powder for that
Or Testosterone.
