So, is your baby okay?  Where did you read that Vitex causes birth defects so I can read it as well?  I just purchased Vitex and will receive it next week and that is when I plan on starting.

sorry girls! i can't remember and i deleted the invoice!!!! =((
It just showed up like that when i typed VITEX on e-bay......hmmmm, pricey huh??? how much? mine was like 6 or 7 bucks with shipping and all!......i think they say that it takes about 2 to 3 months to 'regulate' your system, but mine was whithin a matter of days!....i think that was it cuz it made me O way sooner than expected.....11! whereas before was 15!....
Glad to hear you got it though!!!! =))

I haven't had regular AFs since my m/c in late March.  At six and half weeks after my D&C I started getting worried that I would never see AF again, so I took Vitex.  The following day I started cramping and two days after that I got my AF.  Then, I threw the Vitex in the trash because I developed a terrible allergy.  It ended up being something else.  Anyway, like six weeks later I still hadn't seen AF again, so I started Vitex again.  The following day I started AF cramps, but nothing happened for two weeks.  I do believe Vitex is affective.  I was advised to take it with my morning meal.  Also, there is some evidence that Vitex causes birth defects so be careful.  Unfortunately, I took Vitex before I knew I was pregnant.
