what is it supposed to do?
Just started to try and get cycle back.
Too Soon To Tell
Tried Vitex for a few weeks, 1200mg as suggested. I had lots of headaches on it. Was prescribed Clomid, decided to give that a chance and stopped Vitex. Clomid worked for me.
Vitex is a natural herb, which is supposed to help regulate a woman's cycle and ovulation. I've only been taking it 2 months, but period pain is lessened somewhat.

I bought some but then the OB put me on clomid and you are not supposed to take them together so I never took it.
