    Hi Liddy,
    You're not alone in your confusion re: Vitex and EPO.
    Last cycle I took both Vitex and EPO up until O'ing and stopped. It resulted in a longer LP, 14/14 = 28 day cycle.
    I consulted with my Chinese Herbalist who said that taking Vitex through the entire cycle is not an issue, only STOP when pg.

    HTH, tho its always recommended consulting with a professional when taking various medications.

    All the best

    Thanks CBG I stopped taking the Vitex as apparently it's only recommended after ovulation as it affects the oestrogen in the first half of the cycle. I never knew that!
