Can i use vitex (chasteberry) alongside natural progesterone cream?

i'm trying to get some relief for some serious estrogen dominance symptoms, brought on after a major meltdown about a year ago (legs and abdomen are constantly bloated, incapacitating cramps and irregular periods)

I've been taking vitex for 3 months today.
Going crazy.

Answer:
Chasteberry's principal purpose is used today to treat breast tenderness as related to PMS and other PMS symptoms.

Other proposed used are Amenorhea, Female Infertility, Irregular Menustration, and Menopausal Symptoms.

It is stated that if you are taking hormones it is possible that chasteberry may interfere with their action. This could be your problem. I personnaly would stop using the chasteberry.

I'm not sure where you got your natural progesterone. I use one that I purchased online at www.askdrhelen.com You might want to check out this site. It has a question and answer section that you can use to make sure you are using the right cream. You can also email her personally with any questions. Since I started using her natural progesterone cream, approx. 8 months ago, my periods have regulated back to once a month. I am very pleased with her product and have ordered a 2nd jar.

Hope this helps - good luck!

talk to your gyn about options other than the synthetic types.
