It’s time for vitamins!!

[Yolo23]

Hello all,

I’m a bit of a nightmare with testing out new things - I’ve one of these impulsive personalities that tries something, and then lacks patience and consistency 🤣 typical Aries…

This eve, I’ve been on a vitamin rampage and ordered:

• Folic Acid with Vitamin B
• Omega 3 fish oil
• some random COQ10 (which I’ve heard a lot about on these forums recently)

I’m going to do my very best to be consistent this month. I’m curious to hear what vitamins you’re trying, or if anyone else wants to jump onboard and join me in testing out any of the above - please feel free 😅

Sorry it was FA with vitamin D3 not Vitamin B!

I'm trying:

• Evening primrose oil from CD1 until ovulation
• Raspberry tea leaf from CD1 until ovulation
• 75mg aspirin from ovulation until AF starts
• Omega 3/Cod liver oil daily
• Ovum supplements daily

Fingers crossed! I’m hoping a few tweaks may help make a difference… but we will see 👀 sounds like a good concoction 🤣 how long have you been TTC? Xx

@User651627 id be cautious with aspirin. unless you have a blood clotting issue / repeated miscarriage risk aspirin and were advised by a doctor then aspirin isn't recommended anymore. It can actually prevent implantation as it interferes with a chemical. I can't remember the correct terminology to describe it but look it up.

@PinkMandalorian thank you for this info! I wasn’t aware of it myself but was deliberating trying aspirin. I appreciate the info xx

Last time I was TTC for 10 months and then the month I got my BFP I had started taking Conceive Plus Ovulation Support tablets from Amazon so I'm going to take them again this month too (even though they're due to arrive tomorrow and I think I'm due to ovulate today or tomorrow!) Xx

@HRHXO oh how interesting!! I’ve not heard of these but will deffo take a look into them - thank you 😊 x

Vitamin D is really important when it comes to fertility. I had 13 miscarriages and was told to take vitamin D and folic acid. Be careful with Coq10 as it can mess your cycle up, it did mine and I stopped taking it. A few months after dropping everything other than Vitamin D and Folic Acid, I fell pregnant for the 14th time. I carried on taking Vitamin D throughout pregnancy and dropped folic acid after 12 week scan. I was told to take aspirin when I was pregnant up until 36 weeks as baby had a low blood flow through placenta at 12 week scan but all is well and I have a beautiful 4 month old DD 😊 good luck!

@elm26 thank you 🫶 that’s really useful advice. I’m sorry to hear about all your miscarriages - my gosh, bless you ❤️

I’ll keep the COQ10 to the back of the pile and save that for if and when I’m desperate to give something new a go. Thank you x
