I read on here that Vitex can help achieve pregnancy in women with low progesterone.  But I think i should only use it for the first two weeks of my cycle because it can cause birth defects (possibly?) So my question is:  if i only take it for two weeks then is that enough to really even help anything...

Anybody additional comments on Vitex?

Let me know if it helps any.  I was taking 200 mg of PABA daily but quit after three months and will prob start back up on it if AF comes.

Have thought about buying the fertility blend product but I have never seen any posts from anyone who has taken the product to know if it is worth the money.

Thank you for the response.

Have you been taking this?  Also, have you taken this before and noticed anything different and if you are taking it have you had any side effects?
