Improving chances of fertlisation and/ or implantation

[lulu1414]

I remember reading some suggestions about this- pineapple juice for implantation etc, but wondered if there are any other ideas. I can't search as the MN search facility is down.

Oh god not pineapple juice, I hope not I can't stand the stuff. I was hoping that someone else would have ideas esp helping implantation, as I have v good embryos put back after ivf but no success. So Lulu, I hope you hear something!

hi smae here hate pineapple hope not either
good luck folks

grapefruit juice can help increase the amount of egg white cervical mucus, which is good fro keeping sperm alive, therefore increasing chance of conception

bum - So I should have been eating Pinapple this week?

I'm not so sure about pineapple. Apparently it can help encourage you to go into labour . And there is also a chinese 'old wive's tale' that says if your period is due but doesn't turn up, eat pineapple and it will make your period start.

So going by that, I wouldn't have thought it would be much good for conception!!!!

But as I said, grapefruit juice is supposed to aid the cahces of conception

Lots of walking to improve circulation
