I don't ovulate on my own, waiting for my first appt at fertility clinic, until then I will eat/drink/stand on my head anything I have to to help ovulation! Any ideas? Even if its an old wives tale I will try it!

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated xx
 
I've heard spearmint tea, honey, cinnamon, and evening primrose all increase fertility in different ways. I have tried them all but none worked for me, I have heard that each has worked for other people though.
 
I 've been using vitex and EPO before O, plus acupuncture and the Chinese herbs the acupunturist prescribed for me, and... it worked last month! I had the strongest O I'd had in a year. Lots of ECWM and I wanted to BD with everyone. I'm doing it all again this month and praying. Maybe it would work for you, too? xoxo
 
I've heard acupuncture is a strong tool.

(There are a few who specialise in fertility acupuncture.)
 
I just started vitex and acupuncture this month, so the jury is still out. I've heard a lot of amazing things about both tho.

Have you tried soy yet? I've never done it, but it seems like there are other ladies on here who swear by it.

Good luck! *hugs*
 
Both EPO and Soy Iso have helped me ovulate in the past.:thumbup:
 
Vitex work very well for me and you may want to check out this link (myo-Inositol) studies on successful ovulation:
https://sites.google.com/site/miscarriageresearch/supplements-and-miscarriage/d-chiro-inositol

on the left index of this site under 'supplements' there are really great antioxidants that have lead to ovulation with completely an-ovular women. Antioxidants aren't the same as vitamins, they simply help repair aging, damaged cells in your body, rejuvenating you while preventing cancer.

The site also explains the benefits of certain vitamins and vitex among other supplements on fertility in general. Soy is an anti-nutrient (like alcohol), I'd only try this if I'd exhausted everything else the world has to offer. https://www.nutraingredients.com/Research/Soy-isoflavone-may-damage-fertility-finds-new-research
I wish you all the best!! :flower:
 
Acupuncture! Definitely! I have VERY strong ovulations ever since I started acupuncture. I love it! :)
 
Wow thanks ladies! Lots for me to look into now, I'm off to google! I like the sound of acupuncture so I will definitely try that first! Xx

put your foot in extremly hot water for 15 min daily! you will increase blood flow to your uterus :) Acupenture is also a good thing to do!
 
I have just got my date 2 go see the Specialist I'm scared and excited at the same time at least I'm doing something positive! The doc thinks I might have stopped ovulating I came of my BC a year about and my cycle hasn't went back 2 normal so of course I'm hoping its an easy fix. But reading what everyone else is going through is helping I'm not alone! It hard watching friends go through this with no hassle then 2 tell u u should really do this its so fulfilling ..... That's the plan u lot so 2 talk 2 someone in the same boat as me will help a lot!! And reading these posts help a lot so thank u all! My husband and I have his daughter living with us and I have the joy of a child in my life that I love so much but I want 2 be mammy now I also look after children so I can't help but feel (may sound childish) when is it my turn 2 be mammy???

I stopped ovulating when I came off bc, for 18 months I waited to see if it would return to normal (under the doctors recommendation stupid doctor) and then went back on bc to regulate my cycles for 3 months, came off that and fell pregnant the 2nd cycle but ended in mc, since mc I havnt ovulated again but don't want to go back on bc, so now I'm waiting for my appointment with a fertility clinic, very frustrating! I just wanna be pregnant again but I can't even try if I'm not ovulating :cry:
 
Aw that's awful I'm sorry 2 hear that but have faith and maybe don't think of it as making a baby just as some time with your oh! A friend of mine was going through the same thing and didn't have a period for over a year had just started all the tests and the doctors couldn't believe it when she fell pg!! So there is hope for all off us!

I came off my bc because I gained a lot of weight very quick (doc told me it was the bc) when I came off it I stopped gaining so quick but I now can't get the extra weight shifted!! So there is a number of things I have 2 get round! I hope things start 2 look up for u soon! Xo
 
i have yet to get an ultrasounds done yet to see if i ovulate (i got a lackey of a dr. waiting to change drs supposed to be a new dr here soon) but till then i have been drinking spearmint and peppermint tea along with a teaspoon of honey and changing my sugars to honey and i see a difference my cm has changed since last month i have always been very regular and after realizing my cycle this month my opks have been getting darker :) i dont think i was testing late enough, but all i have changed this month is drinking tea and a teaspoon of honey :)

I have heard good things about peppermint tea, I hate peppermint tea :sick: I will have to hold my nose lol
 
I heard a good one when I was TTC, didnt try it but I kind of liked the sound of it. As women sync cycles who live together you can use this to regulate your cycle. Ask a sister or friend who has a perfect cycle to sleep in a tee shirt and then pass it on to you before washing the pharamones out of it. then you sleep in it.
I think you might need to do this daily (so have a few tees to cycle through) as her hormones will fluctuate and that is what you want yours to do.
