I would take a larger dose of vitex for twins. 2 capsules in the morning and two at night or even three. When I conceived my twins I was taking 2/2.
Here is the link to the wild yam that is sold as a supplement. This may not be the same as the African yam that is said to cause twinning but I do know that many people have taken it in an attempt at twins. Does anyone know of any different wild yam supplement??

WILD YAM... I saw somethings that said that the root, fruit, leaves, and whatever all have different factors. Cassava Root is the one that people say to use for twins but doesn't say how much to take. Most wild yam does help with cramps and other monthly women pains. Also if taken everyday it can act like the pill.... one site, I can't remember where, but it said to take it with day one with your monthly and all the way until day one of your next monthly and this will cause your body to not release an egg with the first month but increases your chance of releasing 2 eggs.
I am going to take it in late May but need to figure out how much to take. I may just wing it and take some 2 times a day since that is when I take all my vitamins.

Like Purplepoet says, it's the Cassava Root that is alleged to cause twinning, but I can only find it mixed with Vitamin C as a supplement. They carry it at Amazon.

I have to admit I would love to have twins esp.GG twins. I sometimes joke to DH that being pg 7 times already and with my/our age increases the chances of it happening..... I think it gets him a bit worried. lol

Sorry to be a Debby Downer, but after working in a pediatric hospital with a high level NICU, I do not want twins. Yes, they are adorable. Yes, if you & both babies survive, you get a 2 for 1 deal. Yes, there are successful, healthy twin pregnancies, but it still is a huge risk for both babies & mother. I used to think triplets, quads, etc. were high risk, but I now understand how high-risk even twins are.
NPR has a great article today about this. So please read up on the risks before taking steps to actively try for twins (although darn-it, all the matching clothes are cute!).37 (me); 42 (DH)
