Hi all!
Can Agnus Castus (aka Vitex / Chasteberry), Maca AND Raspberry Leaf Tea be taken together at the same time? (ie the same cycle) for TTC?.
Or will one of them cancel out the positive effects of one of the others?
Is this a good cocktail for helping improve fertility in general & boosting chances of conception?
I came off BCP (Microgynon) 25/12/10 so havent been trying for very long, but as i was on BCP for over 4 yrs, during which i only had a couple of withdrawal bleeds (due to taking the pill back-to-back with no breaks - eek!) i feel as though my reproductive system is sluggish and may not be working at peak fertility just yet. I understand it takes a while for everything to get back ins sync after long periods on BCP but i just want to help it along a little, and encourage my body to ovulate successfully.... especially as i need to get pregnant ASAP before my OH goes away to work for a long time.
I spotted a small amount of brown last weekend (CD25) and had bad period-like cramps for 2 days, but no proper AF.
Today (CD 31) i started cramping again and AF seems to be coming (hopefully!) as i have a light bleed, but its a browny-red color. I just hope it turns into a proper AF bleed tomorrow.
Before BCP i was fairly regular, normal-heavy flow with a short to average cycle length. I've never missed a period, had a light period or spotted inbetween periods, so this past couple of weeks have been a bit worrying.
Id like to take some herbs, vitamins etc that will help to encourage a healthy reproductive system in general, help me to ovulate successfully at the right time, improve the quality of my eggs and increase my chances of conceiving.
I currently take:
Vitamin B6 - 50g
Royal Jelly - 1000mg
Pregnacare Pre-Conception (his & hers)
Baby Aspirin - 75mg
Vit C - 1000mg
I gave up smoking, drinking alcohol and caffeine 26/1/11, and i eat a healthy diet containing lots of veg, fish, chicken, nuts, seeds etc.
I've already ordered Maca & AC - but should i order Raspberry Leaf Tea too?
Is there anything else i could take to help us TTC successfully too? xx
