Anyone use agnus cactus for ovulation regulation ?

[Skippingthroughthefarm]

ive read that the pregnacare and mum to be vitamins etc can really throw your period of the mark or make it stop all together so i dont take them but now im sure im not OV i'm looking into overhauling my whole diet and lifestyle. has anyone used agnus castus 1000mg pills before ?

Hi skipping

This is my first cycle using agnus castus, so it's soon to tell if it's working for me yet. I'm taking the tincture. 20 drops twice a day.

I have Pcos and my cycles are really long. I'll keep you informed!

I think I have PCOS, but it's not confirmed. I once went 5 months with no period. Anyway, agnus castus has worked twice for me. I now have 2 little ones.

I used the tincture, 20 drops two times a day too.

Good luck

I would not self medicate with AC as it can make some underlying problems like PCOS worse in some women. If you really want to use this I would seek out the services of a properly qualified medical herbalist beforehand re dosages.

I agree with attila, I wouldn't suggest you self medicate with it - for some it works whereas for others their cycles get even longer. I have PCO and was taking 2 pills a day (as prescribed by my dr). It never seemed to have any positive effect on ovulation or cycle length, although my low progesterone levels did get better.

Ooh great i ordered the tablets from amazon on super fast delivery i plan on taking 2 with food once a day then once i have ovulated it says to stop taking it and start all over again next cycle hope it works for me i don't have PCOS I'm just not ovulating all the hormones are there and running but no OV i also have a regular 29 day cycle i think if AC don't work ill have to go to the GP and face the needles and a scan FX

AF is starting in a few days am i ok to take my agnus castus starting tomorrow ? Also what a smell OH went out of the room when i opened the pouch its says to use in conjunction with wild yam 1000mg too so going to order them next month
