Hi Glitterbug, I took two bottles of the Fertility Blend about a year ago and it made my PCOS symptoms so much worse. I put on about 20lbs, my hirsutism was twice as bad, and my skin was so oily and broken out I was having to clean it every couple of hours. This is just my experience though and of course everything effects everyone differently. I hope it does better for you.

What is in the blend?

I went to GNC to get Vitex and it as $20/bottle, 16 if you were a "gold member", I ended up getting the same thing at my local HFS for $12. GNC's prices are out of this world!

My bottle has the same herbs/vit. You are supposed to take one three times a day for atleast 3 months before you see any change. You can't take it with Clomid or any other fertility drugs. Good luck to those using it and let us know if it works. If so I may have to try it again and hope that my symptoms don't all start coming back!

Hi Glitterbug,YES I have heard of fertility blend I think its great only because it did help me with an issue I have been (or shall I say not been) having for over 10 years! IRREGULAR MENSIS! so the blend has worked its magic I also saw a change in my hirsutiasim, not drastically but some change the break outs were not that bad anymore, but I am now taking METFORMIN 1000mg to help with the slight Diabetes,regulate the mensis and hopefully be able to conceive one day, but I dont think it likes me very well! do you know if you can take FERTILITY BLEND with metformin?
