herbsgirl - thanks for posting the testimonial. I always like reading them.
I also took myo-inositol before getting pregnant with my son. It did help with mood a lot. My cycle at the time was already well regulated from taking vitex for several years pretty consistantly. The problem with myo inositol that I've read is that it isn't readily converted into d-chiro-inositol in the body for many women with PCOS. But it did seem to be helpful in conjunction with other supplements when I took it.
I've now been DCI for 3 weeks consistantly at 1200mg. I have continued to have much more energy and feel like it has helped my fertility. This last month I had lots more EWCM and ovulated a couple of days earlier CD19 vs CD21/22. I got a positive HPT with very faint line, but then it was neg. a few days later. So I think I was breifly preggo but it didn't take  AF came yesterday a week late.
