Dong Quai is inadvisable to take if you are pregnant, same goes for vitex. That is why you should only take it until ovulation. These herbs may help you ovulate and you might have a better idea of when that is by checking cm and charting your BBT which can be done for free at www.babymed.com and www.fertilityfriend.com. Also, I read your signature line, and please don't lose hope yet. I have been TTC for 3+ years and many of the girls here have been trying for 6, 8, and 15, and eventually go on to get pregnant. I'm just trying to offer you some encouragement. Baby dust to you. You can do this. This is the place to be! Keep reading for other natural ideas like Soy Isoflavones. They are said to be a natural clomid alternative and many have had success.
