I am so excited that AF arrived for the first time in years without Provera! It's a nice flow too, I usually just spot or get brown flow...yucky. I'm starting to think the herbal method may actually work. This month I'll do the ovulation predictor kit & we'll see!!!!
30 days after starting Vitex I spotted, but only on one day. The next month AF came in full force on day 31!

I just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS. I can only imagine how you are feeling. What brand of vitex did you use? I was actually thinking of taking vitex but since I have been hearing alot of success with the Fertility Blend for Women I thought I give that a try? Could you post your daily intake of the product?
My second cycle on vitex I used ovulation predictor sticks. They all came back negative. I finally started to spot at day 55 & continued to spot for 7 days. I decided this must be AF for this cycle.
I had been planning to try soy, so I took 150 mg of soy isoflavones (GNC brand, non GMO) days 8-12. I still continued to take the same dose of Vitex every day, including during AF. I used a fertility monitor this month. It registered low on days 9-12; high on days 13-24; peak yesterday & today!!!! I could cry! I had given up hope of ever ovulating! Of course it was BD last night & now wait for my temping to confirm ov.
Unbelievable!
Fertility Friend confirmed o on day 27!!!! Yahoo!

OK, I'm bummed!!!!
Fertility Friend gave me a coverline that I had Oed & then took it away the next day. What's that about? I'm really confused.
My FF chart:
I wanted to ask if you knew if it is ok to take Vitex while taking glucophage xr? I am very happy that you o'd!!! and had a period all on your own. I never have one unless I take provera also, so I am really excited about this. Thanks in advance =) Bibi

Sorry, I did a search on it and found out it is ok to take it together. I hope you can get some help on why Fertility Friend gave you a negative. Keep us posted =) Bb

Bibi, Are you going to start vitex? keep us posted. Please note that it does take some time to start working. They recommend using it for 4 months to judge it's effectiveness for you.

Congratulations on getting AF. I was on vitex from February until May when I finally got a +++++++++ on a hpt. It does take time but for me this was worth it. DH and I were against the clomid option. And when AF ws late in May I really thought she was just playing games yet again, especially since my OB told me I would only get pregnant with fertility drugs.
I stayed regular at 31 days during my vitex months.
Good luck
