A little thing called Vitex

So I learned about a new herbal supplement yesterday.  It's called Vitex.  It's also known as Chaste Berry.  It's an herb that is supposed to help regulate hormones and in women like me (with PCOS) it's supposed to help you ovulate sooner, resulting in a shorter cycle.  I've read links to forum posts where women have gone from 60+ day cycles to cycles under 30 days just by taking Vitex.

I also researched if it could be taken in conjunction with Metformin.  Nothing I have read says that it can't.  It DOES say not to take it with Clomid (because they counteract each other) or once pregnant.  It can be taken for up to 18 cycles!  I think I am going to give it a try and pick up a bottle at GNC.
