Saw palmetto and vitex together and how far in advance??

[atomic sagebrush]

Okay so for Jan, feb, and march stop taking V before my expected o days. and then start taking again right after my periods? Is that what you mean?

I typically have people start taking it on CD 1, first day of period.

Okay thanks I'm just a little confused cuz I asked her a couple weeks ago and she said to start it AF-0 before first attempt at least thats what I think she said. But then I read what you said so I'm trying to conceive in April when do you think a good time to start Vitex and then when do I start sp? thx for your help.

sometimes I abbreviate it as AF-O but what I'm trying to say is AF-day before O

Okay thanks Atomic for clearing this all up for me and you did say start V first of cycle and thats what i thought but was getting different opinions. Thx for your help

yes start V first day of cycle.

There are a couple herbs that you DON'T start the first day, but they are boy herbs.

I have your PM too Noemi, I keep running out of time before I get to reply, I'm sorry. I didn't forget you!

You can take Vitex and saw palmetto together. Do not mix SP with peppermint tea, though.

Yes, if you want to take V and SP you would take them AF-CD 12-14 (at your preference) or positive OPK, whichever comes first, for the two cycles and then TTC to catch the ovulation in the second cycle.
