Didn't see that the doctor prescribed the vitamins. Alright if he says so. Did he say the amount too?
Studies showed no toxicity in fenugreek and shatavari at any amount, even feeding fenugreek as a food. I have used 80,000 mg myself (via soaking seeds or extract equivalents). Diabetic studies and traditional use use 20,000-25,000 mg. It is an adaptogen kind of like maca, rather than going after prolactin specifically. If it raised my prolactin then I'd be impotent by now with no libido, shrunken testicles, no testosterone, no ability to build muscle, moobs, and no ability to get an erection. It has been quite the opposite for me. In nursing mothers who already have prolactin then it raises prolactin. It raises what you have and tends to be balancing not imbalancing. Other herbs can be different and sometimes harmful with too much ya. I also don't suggest starting with so much, there is a gradual build up.
Ya, lots of PC all month is fine if stopping or partly getting in the way of your cycle is what you want to do. Ya limiting it is totally fine regardless.
I think there is some miscommunication/misunderstanding.
