Anything to regulate cycles?

Post subject: There's a few things but some things have interactions with other meds , agnus castus is the one that comes up most often and is even reported to help with Hypothyroidism as it balances oestrogen which can help regulate thyroid function but I don't know if you can take it if you're on meds for your thyroid
I can't find any contraindications but that doesn't mean there aren't any . Vit B complex and Evening primrose oil which are good for TTC are also reported to help some women with thyroid issues , so maybe for you they would kill two birds with one stone so to speak x Posted: Tue Mar 19, 2013 8:29 am
Post subject: The pharmacist might know but because agnus is seen as a herbal remedy they might not be the best person, chances are if they don't know they will just say no to cover themselves ,
there is a herbal site online though that lists medicine counteractions, its weird what can be a problem as well because the statins I've been prescribed can't be taken with grapefruit juice of all things  can't for the life of me remember what its called though 
I know when I was taking the agnus though I couldn't find any sites that said there were any reported interactions with common meds (except the pill which it can make ineffective) and just having a quick google I've found quite a few posts from Ladies taking it with thyroid meds Posted: Wed Mar 20, 2013 9:11 am
Post subject: I ended up getting a hormonal balance vitamin, b complex and epo. Hopefully it'll help. I'm bleeding really heavy atm, using a Tampa super every hour and a half since yesterday. Frustrates me xxx

Post subject: Sounds like a nightmare , the hypothyroidism can cause anovulatory cycles as well can't it, which can make them be erratic , hopefully it will work for you
If not it might be worth doing some more research on the agnus castus x Posted: Mon Mar 25, 2013 2:32 pm
Post subject: Well my period lasted five days as it used to so fingers crossed i'm back on track. I have also lost 5lb in the last week, and my bloods show my Thyroxine levels are finally stable on 200mcg. Will keep you updated. Thanks for the help
