    Vitex- how much and when?

    How much vitex are you taking daily (if you are)? And are you just taking it af to o or all cycle?

    I took vitex this month af to o, just one 400 mg per day.

    I take 400mg 3x a day spread out, all cycle long. But I am considering going down to 2x 400mg next cycle. And if that doesn't work I will drop V completely the following cycle.

    I took it 800 mg AF - O, but then I realized I wouldn't O till I stoped it, so I started stopping it a couple day before i expected O to come and it worked perfectly for me.
