Arrow Fertility Blend for Women (Vitex)

Hi, Ladies!
Just bought this bottle of Fertility Blend for Women made by Daily Wellness Company.
I bought it for $8.24 per bottle. It was on markdown from 34.99. Anyway, is this the brand taht everyone is using? Should I start right off with the reccomended dosage or just take 1 cap? The website is www.fertilityblend.com. Anyone else had any advice?
Thanks-
Jen

My opinion would be to start off with the lowest recommended dosage on the bottle. When I looked at the website it didn't state the amount of vitex (chasteberry) per capsule (or I didn't see it) If you have that info then someone might be able to give you a little more specific advice.
Good luck Jen,
Sheri

Default Amt. of Vitex

The bottle says "Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus)
standardized (.5% agnusides)

That is for 1 serving size whichis 3 capsules.

I was just looking into purchaseing that and FUR, my total for the blend for me and my DH along with the FIR came to $72.00, I put that on hold after seeing your post. I know that I'm going to start on the recommended dosage I figure why not jump right in. Now are you going to be taking pre-nat's along with it? I though I saw that you are able to but i'm scared that I would be putting too much vitamins in my system so I've opted to use Childrens chewables to get most of what i needed. If it's the fertility blend by daily wellness I would say that it's the right thing, if you could be a dear though may I have the site name where you purchased it? That's a big discount and would help allot considering I'm still trying to recover from my last few injectable iui cycles. Bye for now.

Does your bottle contain L-arginine? If not it's not the right thing.

It does contain L-Argininine.
I purchased it at a local supermarket. It was on the clearance table for $8.32.

I did go ahead and start with the 3 capsules daily.
Thanks!

Wow that's a great price. I was just talking to my friend and because I'm anemic we (like she's also in charge of my body, lol) decided that I'm going to go with the multi-vitamin that GNC makes and just add Vitex and L-Argininine (i'm a think cyster that needs to bulk up a bit) Oh yeah that's what I was thinking about, if you have a weight problem d/t your pcos you want to be careful with your L-Argininine intake. Have a good weekend.
