Help on fertility

[Elyselhogue]

What are you ladies taking every day to help with fertility?

Currently, I'm taking the following:

Prenatal
4000 mg of folic acid
Metformin

I'm about to start trying royal jelly, because hell it can't hurt. What's on your lists? Has Any one Tried royal jelly? Any experiences

I've ramped up my regimen a bit this cycle. I've got a complicate schedule of taking thngs with/without food, with/without other supplements, as instructed:

2000 IU Vitamin D
1 mg Folic Acid
Magnesium/Calcium (not sure how much is in this one, but it aids in absorption of D)

On the weekends, I usually just take a prenatal instead because I'm too busy to remember to take everything as scheduled!

Pre-O (CD10-14ish) I also add:

2000 mg Evening Primrose Oil
30 mL Guaifenesin

So far this cycle, my EWCM has increased dramatically. Like, it's almost comical how much there is! Hoping to see a longer LP as well, but no news on that yet!

I am also planning on trying royal jelly..There are many great benefits as suggested here - Royal Jelly For Pregnancy . Worth Trying it out...

1. Have period app on your phone to tell you exactly when you are ovulating.
2. Try green veg and vitamins - spinach Blend with kiwi is a good remedy. Hummus as well
3. Take multi vitamins everyday
4. Have a day before ovulation and through out your ovulation cycle( scissors position is the best to conceive)
5. Don't think about it too much and be happy - stress release bad hormones so you don't want that

Good luck

Things that have helped me:

1. Ovia App on my phone - there others but I found this one most user friendly and encouraging!

2)Evening Primrose Oil (but only for first half of your cycle- stop at time Ovulation!! - this is very important)

3. Making Babies book by Sami Davies- talks about combining western and eastern theories. Great book!!!

4. Plotting basal temperature - This will tell you that you are ovulating. Temperature goes up 1-2 days after ovulation. Good to know if your body is performing as it should. Also your temperature stays up if you are pregnant (18 high temps in a row and your eggo is preggo!)...

5. getting to know your body- cervical position and fluid.

Royal Jelly is supposed to be very good from what I have read, but I haven't tried mine yet (still in cupboard).

If you need metformin - please do read the book I recommended!
