I'm thinking about just forgetting about Vitex and solely sticking with Soy? Help, ladies? I posted a new thread about this but am wanting responses so I'm going to post the same thing here:
I have been taking Soy Isoflavones for 3 cycles now. I did this in order to induce ovulation, since I have very irregular periods. The first cycle, I had to induce a period with Prometrium and then took soy on cd 3-7. The second cycle, which was 30 days later, I had spotting and do not consider that a regular flow, as it lasted for 3 days and was brown, not red. Nonetheless, I still took the soy capsules like last time and lo and behold, 28 days later I get a "real" period. For once in a long time, I didn't have to take Prometrium to induce it, it just came on "it's own".
That period has been gone for about a week now and I decided to take Vitex, to just "make sure" that I ovulate and get another one. Although now I'm starting to worry about the interactions of soy and Vitex. Like last cycle, I took soy on cd 3-7 but then I started taking Vitex starting on cd 11, until now. I'm worried I'm screwing up my body. Especially because I also take Metformin and Dexamethasone.
I'm thinking about just forgetting about Vitex and solely sticking with Soy. What do we think? I hope it'll be ok for me to stop taking Vitex cold turkey. Then again, I've only been taking it for 3 days.
Any opinions would be appreciated!
