DRUG INTERACTIONS: Contraindicated with fertility drugs or IVF – the addition of Vitex could potentially cause hyperstimulation of the ovaries.

• Caution with hormone replacement therapy, oral contraceptive pills and progesterone drugs – given Vitex’s hormone modulating effect, it may theoretically interfere with the action of these drugs.

CAUTIONS

• Avoid use in individuals with tumours sensitive to oestrogen or progesterone.

• Vitex is not generally recommended in females under 20 years of age as the natural hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis can be easily disrupted.

• Vitex is most effective during the first three to six months of use. After that, its effect on the pituitary starts to diminish. It is recommended to take a break from Vitex for two months before resuming use.

• Not recommended during pregnancy without medical advice and breastfeeding due to insufficient studies relating to safety.

SIDE EFFECTS

• In some cases, Vitex may initially worsen PMS symptoms.
