Sorry, I've got a couple more questions I would like to ask:
I've been reading old posts and some people were taking vitex for estrogen dominance. But I am low in progesterone - can you take vitex for both of these hormone imbalances?
It should help to increase progesterone. But it might take some time. I read that it can take 3 months or longer.

How can I know? I took Vitex only for 5 weeks and stopped then, because my acne got worse from it then. So I cannot speak from experience.

Thank you
Maybe ask your doctor about it if there can be any interactions.
Good luck.
