Thanks for that Peggy. I was researching and it came up with 100-200mg for low symptons, and was 300-400mg for high symptoms. So, thank you so much for informing me.
I will look into Maca and then choose between the two.
I just don't like how when I stop taking my progesterone is going to drop again, I will have to keep taking the vitex (or maca) for the rest of my life (or at least until I have hopefully grown my breasts). But it's adviseable not to take vitex for more than 6 months; and I would need more time than that to grow my breasts

Sorry about all the questions I ask, but I really don't understand all this herbs & hormone stuff, even though I've read literally hundreds of threads, and that's why I like to ask my own simple easy questions as it makes me understand better.

From my last post, are you able to answer this: What I am confused about however, is, if my estrogen is fine, why cannot I take estrogen herbs until my hormones are level? Am I right in thinking that progesterone keeps the effects of estrogen under control, and because I'm low in progesterone it will boost my estrogen levels up?
Thank you very very much
