Hi Claire! I only took folic acid during pregnancy. I don't remember the name...
Zinc is definetely available. I tried to find soy isoflavones when ttc#2. The only thing I could find were these pills/vitamins from Power Health (brand name). They had, I think, only 25mg soy and I think they had evening primrose oil- but I'm not to sure. They were for menopause!!! Anyway, I had searched only in my town, which doesn't have very big pharmacies. I got pg that cycle, so I think soy is worth a try.
I go to a gyno in Thessaloniki. He is a family dr, but he's pretty expensive- 70 euro. In smaller towns prices usually range from 30-50.
Don't worry about asking questions. When I was ttc the internet and especially this site helped me. All the information I got (soy, for example) was from here. I would tell my dr the stuff I knew, and he'd say bravo, but that would piss me off because it's his job to inform me!
How long have you been in Greece? Do you like it here? Corfu is very beautiful. Do you know any Greek??
Primrose oil: ladi nihtolouloudo
Zinc: psevdargiros
Soy isoflavones: I asked for them like that
I don't know what vitex agnus castus is.

I hope I was able to help.

Fay
