    I have no idea where I read this (other than on the net somewhere) but I heard that vitex is good in helping establish regular periods BUT that it can very very slightly increase the risk of miscarriage... Hope you can find so more reliable information!

    runnermum - I had the Depo shot in September 2006, my cycle didnt return till July 2007 and when it did I was having short LP's of only 9 days.

    I did alot of reading on the internet and read alot of stories with women having success lengthening their LP's with using Vitex - my main reason for why I was looking into taking it.

    I contemplated starting to take it for quite a while but in the end I decided 'what the heck, I might as well see if it works for me' so I brought the Blackmores brand and started using it beginning of November.

    I dont know whether it was just a co-incidence or whether the Vitex actually did help but after only one month of taking it early December I got my and am now 10 weeks into my pregnancy!

    I guess it just comes down to personal choice - some women have success with it, others unfortunately dont have such positive experiences with it.

    Good luck, hoping you have your bfp very soon!
