Okay, I am taking 400mg vitex twice a day, 1130mg dong quai twice a day, and 200mg black cohosh twice a day. I also take a woman's multivitam once a day, and 1600mg dandelion once a day. I am also charting my fertility and I appear to be ovulating - no real eggwhite CM, but nice, clear temp shifts every cycle.

Now, recently I read that I'm only supposed to take the vitex up until the temp shift, but once that happens, I shouldn't start it again until AF starts. Has anyone else heard of this, and does anyone know why?

I also wonder about dong quai and black cohosh - both are common aborters. Should I be stopping all three once I've O'd and not begin them again until AF arrives?

Could someone recommend something good for me to read about this?

Any herbs that should be avoided during pregnancy should be avoided after O, just in case. The same goes for Evening Primrose Oil, according to some. I only took it and my Red Raspberry and Saw Palmetto until O, and then stopped until CD1. Better safe than sorry.
