my mom is a pharmacyst and when I researched this the only thing it says was to not take it with other meds but herbal stuff isnt really tested like regular meds so I would say just stop taking it once you get pg! Good luck

I took it for like 3wks and had a no change just nausea. I went to an herbal store and they told me that once we got pregnant to stop completely. also there is no need to take it once your period begans just start as soon as its over. I wish you the best of luck. :)

keep in mind vitex can take up to 6 months to do its thing but it really does work. also look into herbs that can help control blood sugar. as that's what metformin does.
