Anyone know anything about this supplement? I'm just reading reviews of it on amazon.com (us not uk site) and they seem quite positive.

Does anyone have any experience of it. What's the catch? Difficulty in conceiving my 1st, over a year, clomid etc. conceived 2nd on my first attempt. Struggling with TTC number 3.

Part of me wants to give it a go, the sensible side of me says don't mess with pills bought over the Internet!

Any opinions?

Sorry. That should read FertilAid.

I don't have any experience of this supplement, but IMVHO these things are just designed to take money off you.

There is no medical evidence to suggest that these supplements work, if they did we'd all be taking them and getting pregnant at the drop of a hat!

I say this as someone who has been TTC#1 for over 2 years, so I'm not one of those smug women who falls pregnant just by looking at my DH Wink

What CaveMum said. There are always people out there ready to take money from people desperate to conceive and this is one such method.

Would avoid using such things, waste of money and what is actually in them?. They could be counterfeit, they likely do not have any licence to be used in this country.

"Natural" as well does not always mean safe.

If you were previously given clomid it is likely that you are one of many women who have ovulatory issues. These do not go away of their own accord.

I know you're all right. I didn't order them.
I do have ovulatory issues. PCOS. Was hoping I would be lucky again this time but it's probably time I went to the doctor.

Not probably, it is time. If PCOS is present then you need further medical advice. GP should refer you to a gynae specialist. PCOS is something that GPs should not be messing around with.

PCOS is not something that ever goes away; no one therapy or treatment will completely solve the cystic follicles on the ovaries.

Atilla...thank you! I know you're right. I have moved abroad since having my kids and haven't sorted out a gynecologist yet. I am going to do it tomorrow and report back!...Check on me and berate me if I haven't!
