    I bought this last month but start taking it. I'm going to start today. I also take evening primrose oil (up to ovulation), omega 3 and vitamin b6. Only time will tell if they work but they won't do me any harm.

    I got pregnant after taking Agnus Castus, it moved my ovulation day from day 27 to day 13 which I think really helped me concieve, the proof is asleep up in his cot now :-)

    That and B50 complex Definately worked for me as I conceived after a miscarriage. It regulated my cycle for me. However, Agnus Castus stimulates the ovaries to producing more than one egg so twins or triplets are often the result of a conception using Agnus Castus!! Just be aware of this and also DO NOT use it once you have ovulated!! So you need to be using the little pee-on-a-stick ovulation kits to see when to stop taking it!

    Started taking Agnus Castus this month - usually my cycle could be anywhere from 35 to 45 days since coming off pill nearly a year and a half a go BUT this month I've just ovulated at day 14 (got the positive on the ovulation test thing, egg white CM and the familiar cramp in my side)!:eek: I'm shocked it worked so fast!
    Starting my 2ww this week, can't believe it - I've never been able to post before because I couldn't tell when my 2WW was going to be!:D Delighted!

    I don't know about wild yam but with Agnus Castus, if you're trying to conceive, you use it from the first day of your period until you ovulate and stop until either your period or pregnancy.
