Hi shortcake,
In a cycling program, I wouldn't take these herbs during ovulation, no. Maybe goat's rue, but then I don't really know if prolactin suppresses ovulation. I do know that too much of it can stop periods.
Most US users buy Motherlove, yes, but they have other formulations besides the extract, like gel capsules. I'm not surprised it's hard to find. It's on the Federal Noxious Weeds list:

Being an old European herb lady, I sooo hate lists like this one
OK, sorry for venting. One ovulation hormone is LH, and vitex agnus castus (chaste tree berry) increases that. But don't go experimenting with that before you've got the other ducks in a row.
