Thanks ladies! I took an extra folic acid on top of my prenatals last night, just wanted to make sure I wasn't harming anything lol! I hope we can all get our SHBFP soon!! I'm ready for AF so I can go back on Vitex. It does pretty well for me, hoping to use that while making it through the summer. Will go back for clomid in September or so

Angelbany, where did you buy your Inofolic? I was able to look it up and read enough studies to think it might really help me!

I am from South Africa, but I believe it also sells under the name "pregnitude". As far as I know it's a product from the UK created by a doctor who specifically made this for his pcos patients. It's also good to use if you are metformin intolerant and is available over the counter.

I was easily able to find it on Amazon and Walgreens.com under the name Pregnitude. Thank you!
I didn't realize it was something you drank, though. I thought it was a pill. Hopefully it's not gross.

Here is what the lady posted in my journal well, bnb friend
"Increases Egg Quality, Ideal for PCOS patients.
Normalises Insulin Levels in patients who are insulin resistant.
Normalises low estrogen levels within 8 days after 1st sachet
Promotes Healthy Eggs.
Corrects High Free Testosterone Levels
Myo-Inositol is a key ingredient found in the folicular fluid of healthy eggs.
Patients who have been diagnosed with PCOS or older patiens often lack myo-inositol and therefore create lower quality eggs, thereby diminishing the chances of a successful pregnancy.
It normalises the metabolic, hormonal and folicular processes in the body. PCOS patients often have difficulty losing weight as a result of being insulin resistant. Inofolic will help with this too.
The following hormones play an important role in the cycle of a woman,
Estrogen
Follicle Stimulation hormone (FSH)
Luteinizing hormone (LH)
In order for a woman to fall pregnant, it is important that the female hormones are in balance. If one of the female hormones are imbalanced, the function or production of other hormones may be compromised.
It is also important to note that other hormones, for example insulin that is a metabolic hormone, may also influence the production of female hormones.
The production of female hormones works in a cycle and if any of the hormones is not produced or not regulated in sequence, the cycle is broken or disappears.
The production of estradiol in the ovaries is critical for the regulation and release of:
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) remember FSH is responsible for the recruitment and development of follicles (bag in which eggs develop) and the oocytes (eggs).
Luteinizing hormone (LH) that is responsible for the release of a dominant egg during ovulation.
Without the regulation of estrogen, the brain will increase FSH and LH levels. An increase in the FSH levels will result in a number of follicles to develop but no egg may be released because the LH levels is higher than normal but does not peak to cause ovulation.
Woman is born with a fixed number of follicles (± 400 thousand). Several follicles will grow per month but normally only one dominant follicle will release its egg (ovulation).
After ovulation, the follicle that releases the egg will become a corpus luteum that produces progesterone to prepare the uterus for implantation (thickening of the endometrium) of the embryo. If ovulation does not take place, progesterone levels may not increase and there may be no menstruation phase because the endometrium did not develop.
The quality of all the follicles is not the same and several factors may have an influence on the normal development of the follicle and egg. Normally the best quality follicles will be used during the early reproductive stage and as the women gets older (above 35) , the number of follicles, and the quality of the follicles will decrease until none follicles are left (menopause).
Due to the imbalance of female hormones woman may struggle with an increase in the production of male hormaones which may result in acne, hursitism (unnatural hair development on females body) and/or Alopesia (loss of female body hair). The Ferriman-Gallwey hursitism score may be used to establish the excess of male hormones in female."

Good to know! After doing some research on it myself, I came to the conclusion that Pregnitude is really overpriced for what it is. 
I could order a 360-count bottle of 1000mg Inositol that will last me 180 days (at 2000mg/day) or 90 days (at 4000mg/day) for less than one 30-day supply of Pregnitude. Plus, I can get that in pill form, rather than powder. All I'd need to add is one stand-alone Folic Acid supplement, and I'd be good to go for a long time!
Thank you so much for the heads-up and other information!

Hmm, I'm not sure Hun. Maybe you should, bc I does make sense that you should have your "natural" levels of everything.

I think you should call your doctor and ask what they want you to do.

Soanxious, I agree with ginger. Hear from the doc what they want you to do.

5 times since last september I have got pregnant.. just wish they would stick... 
that's what the consultant said.. you are both fertile so lets see about clotting/antibodies but as you have had 3 healthy pregnancies in the past I can't see this as the problem just a bad few eggs (she said that after 3rd mc she does not know about the other 2 as I didnt tell hospital) so Thursday I will see my gp and see if she can think of other things plus I want her to prescribe folic acid 5mg x

My DH's mom only had him because a little flap of tissue that was just where the egg would release in her uterus. Everything the egg would implant on that tissue. There wouldn't be enough blood supply so she would MC very early. She was like you and could get pregnant but could sustain the pregnancy. Maybe have the dr. Do a little more investigating. His mom never had more children because it was discovered until to late. It would have been an easy fix too. Hope you can get answers soon!

That is very similar to my polyp issue. I can get pregnant, but none of my eggs could implant properly. I can't tell you how many squinters I had that went away after my mc. Maybe the dr can check for fibroids or polyps? They are an easy fix and your uterus will be more accommodating after.
