    Vitex to regulate long cycle - quick help please

    Hi,

    I need some quick help please.

    If I want to regulate long cycles with Vitex, I take it from CD1 to CD14, right?

    Any idea/experiences how soon after stopping Vitex ovulation can happen?

    It has been a week now since I last took it and still no sign of ovulation. Fingers crossed it will happen soon.

    We are not attempting this month, so I am not too worried about knowing before I ovulate if that makes sense as long as I know when I have ovulated afterwards.

    But I am using the CBFM, which I know can miss your Peak. It is also only the 2nd month of using it again, so it might not give me any Peaks anyway.

    I have had EWCM on and off for the last week, but I am also temping and haven't had a thermal shift yet.

    Sigh!

    I have always had long cycles and last month I didn't ovulate till CD42, so I guess anything earlier than that would be an improvement. But I suppose still BF'ing our son at night is not exactly helping matters either.

    that's lucky then are you TTC next cycle?
    I think the temping will be the most reliable way, unless you use OPKs alongside the CBFM too

    Don't know if you have seen the bit that I have just added:
    "I have always had long cycles and last month I didn't ovulate till CD42, so I guess anything earlier than that would be an improvement. But I suppose still BF'ing our son at night is not exactly helping matters either."

    We are hoping to TTC next cycle, whenever that may be.

    I agree about the temping. I was thinking of not temping this time in order not to stress too much about things, but I think I'd get more stressed not knowing what is going on and if and when I have ovulated.

    I have some OPK's too, which I might use next cycle, but we'll see.
