After having two boys a year apart, I have followed the method of taking a 500 mg dose of rutin everyday for the last year and it works. Either you can take it regularly like me or you can take from the day of fertilizing intercourse up until your period starts. It truly prevents fertilized egg from implanting in uterus. Note: You might experience a little cramping (very mild) if the egg does fertilize and tries its best to implant. You will experience a light spotting as it is really trying to implant, but to no avail. Do not stop taking rutin until actual blood flow starts. Once period begins, you might have thick, clotty blood. That lets you know that the egg did fertilize, but could not implant.
Waiting on your period to begin and want to check if it's working? You can always look at the color of your vagina. It should remain pink. As long as it is the normal pink color you have nothing to worry about.
I recommend Solgar brand of Rutin. I buy this from Vitamin Shoppe.
