Could it be the vitex and has anyone experienced this?
I've forever had a short cycle (23days) but pre kids, I O on CD9 so I had a 'perfect' LP.
After DS, my cycles were crazy and I was a hormonal mess.
My AF now comes every 20 days!
I have been taking Vitex for a few months now and was temping while on it just for some charts and to put things in motion for the attempt.
I noticed that I O on CD17 and AF would arrive on CD20 - 3 DAYS AFTER O!!?!
I then began to spot before AF, something that I never experienced before, and the last time the spotting occured it lasted for 5 days before AF actually was here.
I went and had U/S done and an AMH blood test done to see if all my hormones are ok as this seemed like a low progesterone issue?
Everything seems normal in the hormone dept. I'm smack bang in the middle of where I should be, so ATM this is all unexplained.
(Of course, 3 GP's I have seen dont believe in LPD).
I have been of Vitex for 2 months now and the last cycle I had was 23days and O seemed to occur on CD14 or 15. No spotting either.
This cycle, O temp rose at CD16 and I am currently at CD24 and AF is on her way.
Do you think that the Vitex is causing my cycles to be shorter, O to be later and the spotting??
It's only just occured to me now that I have stopped it for 2 months. Has this happened to anyone else?
Slightly disappointed as I wanted to use it in my pink sway! :sad:
