Hi Dalene,
I've been taking all the herbs that come with the improve egg health kit and started vitex and dong quai after I finished with the cleanse. I've been taking my BBT every day and think I ovulated on my 18th day of the cycle and two days ago started having some spotting, which happened just eight days after ovulation. I stopped vitex and dong quai thinking that my period has started but today have not even spotting. I feel that the herbs have helped me a lot, I noticed improvement in the CM during this cycle. I know it takes months to regulate and I'm patient. I'd like to know when I shoul re-start taking vitex and dong quai? Also, I'd like to know if I should start taking the Baby and Me vitamin.
Thanks for your support!

Hi Rosshi,

Hormonal shifts after beginning herbs for fertility is not uncommon and experiencing spotting is normal. It usually is best in general if you are just spotting to continue on with the herbs until your period begins full flow. So you could begin them again now or wait until after your period comes, it is up to you.

You may begin the Baby and Me Multivitamin anytime you would like.

Thanks so much for your reply,
Rosshi
