vitex decreases prolactin- and low PRL levels can lead to increased testosterone- and it appears to increase LH as well- as far as better than divanil- depends on what you are using it for...

so if i start to take this as a daily hormonal regulator, i wont start lactating or get gyno right??

and by the looks of the article, if my Prolactin levels are low, this will raise them ???? i dont know if i want to do that lol
 
just curious, saw a diet book suggesting it to bodybuilders, but i guess it miss informed me lol.....thanks for the helpp guys
 
well if your prolactin levels are high then its a good option. Prolactin levels increase lets say after sex, maybe taking it before would increase some sort of variable.

Also if ur taking divanyl, then chaste berry would be good, cause from anecdotal evidence on the board, divanyl appears to raise prolactin.
 
it will also help with refractory period

meaning u'll get it up faster after poppin one off


so im told
 
doesnt tell if it should be dosed throughout the day or all at once.....there are alot of different doses aswell....
 
i would dose it at the same time as the divanyl

dosage, pretends on the extract, u gonna pick up the Now vitex from nutraplanet, id just follow the dosing as the instruction say and up the dose if doesnt appear to be working.

goodluck, and this would be a great log to do, not so much anecdotal evidence on this combination.
 
i might do a log, i was going to go to Vitamin world because i already ordered bunches of stuff so i dont wanna pay shipping again and have to wait..............it says that there brand has 800mg. per dose of 2 pills...........they market it as a female product for menstrual cycle.....nothing about guys
:(

you say 400 mg. before bed? why before bed?

but is the chaste berry extracted to vitex?

if not the thing probally almost worth nothing.

Usuually herbs work much better when there extracted to the compound that elicits the effect.

on the back it says "vitex (vitex angus castus) (chaste tree fruit powder)"

thats all the nutritional facts say.........and the dosage which is 800 mg.
 
Does the label say anything about a standardized extract? NOW brand recommends 900mg dosed 300 X 3 a day. If you know you have high prolactin levels I can see taking this, but I really don't see it boosting test levels enough to make a difference. It's most common use is for maintain hormone levels during menopause.
 
yeah actually i think that would be okay, i dont see any better extractsm have u used the vitamin shoppe brand before?
 
ive actually found chaste berry aka Vitex Agnus Castus as it called in these forumulas

biotest alpha male
nutrex vitrix
San Endotest Pro
Beast Sports Nutrition SuperTest
VPX Black Pearl RTD

"used to ease symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) as well as to regulate menstruation. Though it contains no hormones, it appears that chasteberry can affect hormonal activity by stimulating the pituitary gland to decrease production of prolactin, a hormone involved in milk production. The reduction in prolactin can help to alleviate breast tenderness and other discomforts associated with PMS.

Chasteberry also appears to affect levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and progesterone, other reproductive hormones that may contribute to symptoms related to the menstrual cycle. Chasteberry appears to be useful in reducing the irritability, bloating and depression that many women experience right before their menstrual periods begin. For that reason, it is finding its way into the formulations of some "just for women" fat burners -- see the SlimQuick review for details."

if it works for women to stimulate the pituitary and increase LH production it could be used in PCT. it might also help with prolactin gyno.
