Vitamins and delayed ovulation

Has anyone experienced taking vitamins and this delaying their ovulation/cycle? I've recently started taking some complex B, vitamin D and folic acid (from trying to concieve recommendations online) and my OPK tests are all coming out negative and none of my normal ovulation signs are appearing. I'm worried this might be the vitamins?

Bit of background. I came off the pill in September after 10 plus years. Thought I'd get off it a couple of months before actively trying to see if my menstrual cycles came back. Was really pleased as these came every 25 days since, with regular cervical mucus, ovulation pains etc. Every month consistently.

However, this month (the first taking vitamins and 'actively' trying), my ewcm is pretty sparse, no symptoms and I'm yet to have a positive OPK. It seems totally out of whack with the last 3-4 months! Worried I've buggered it up with the vitamins and should've just left myself well alone Confused. Has anyone else experienced changes to their cycle after taking vitamins?? Should I chuck them in the bin?

Yes not taking any vitamin A. Hmm so there may be a link then. Yes I'm sure I was ovulating around 10-12 (of a 25 day cycle). This month - day 14-15 = nothing. Let's see when my period shows up...
