Tell a lie...my new supp is called magnesium-ok by wassen (intended for women for the monthly cycle us the blurb) and i got it from boots...i have also started taking mega doses of D3 this cycle but don't think its that....anyhow the new supp has lots of B6 and B12 and coupled with the doses of same vits in pregnacare i think thats what delaying ovulation for me....i have lots of CM so hope its somewhere around the corner.

 

[Milty]

Well I'm in the US but I just got one at the pharmacy since like you I thought I didn't need it. The brand name is Nature Made and has B6, B12, Vit A Folic Acid, Biotin and a few others.

It isn't really considered a high level brand but not really a basic brand either.

I would try it because I have actually felt better in my cycles with it. I noticed a difference in 1 week. I have tried a lot of different things over the years and this is the one I noticed a difference the fastest.

Who knew old B Viatiams ...oldie but goodie

 

[Briss]

[Briss]

[Milty]

Wow, what a great thread. Sign me up for the subscription, b&b!

Hi guys, I'm 42 almost 43. 2 mmcs over the past year. Waiting to have a normal cycle, and wondering about what to do differently.

A couple questions for you all:

- In your opinion, do you think it matters that DHEA supps are micronized?

- I've seen mentions of a book called "Inconceivable," but there are actually a few books on infertility with that in the title. Which one, if any, would you recommend?

-Any other books you've found to be helpful?

Thanks!

 

[Briss]

Lucky, it's "Inconceivable: A Woman's Triumph Over Despair and Statistics" by Julia Indichova. another excellent book is "The Infertility Cure: The Ancient Chinese Programme for Getting Pregnant" by Randine Lewis

 

[LuckyW]

yay, thank you for the quick response!

 

[Ceilani]

Randine Lewis also has a fertility yoga dvd called "The Fertile Soul." I got it in the mail from amazon yesterday, but haven't tried it out yet. I figured anything in the way of improving circulation and meditating about being fertile are worth trying!

 

[LuckyW]

Does sound promising. Please tell us how you like it!

 

[Blythe]

Ooooo yes I would be interested to hear what that DVD is like. I can't seem to find it in the uk!

 

[Briss]

i think you can only get it from US amazon. is it any good?

 

[Blythe]

Notrusty - I'm thinking about giving black cohosh a go next cycle....I'm going to go with about the same dose you did and on CDs 1-12.... Is that right?

 

[notrustyyet]

Blythe, yes I went with CD 1-12 as that is what was successful in the study I referenced in my original post. Curious if you notice higher temps 2nd half of cycle....

Hi, yes I have written about it but I dont mind doing it again. I seem to conceive Ok, I would not say I am super fertile but I have conceived 5 times in the last 3 years 4 months. (I believe with the help of all the supplements I was taking. I was taking DHEA every time excpet the first time which took me over one year to conceive, the others were fairly quick once I started taking the DHEA) I was told by an NHS consultant to just give up and that I was old and my eggs were old which sort of infuriated me and made more determined to prove them wrong. I took Fertinatal (high quality DHEA endorsed by a top IVF clinic in NYC) Co enzyme Q10, 400mg, 60.000UI of vitamin D once a week for 8 weeks but my problem was holding on to the babies. I believe the supplements help a lot expecially CO Q10 and DHEA. Fingers crossed this bean is a sticky one. I had a full immune test done and I have high NK cells which were killing the babies. I wasn't meant to be pregnant this cycle, I was waiting for test results but I only had sex once, just once! and there you have it, pregnant! I have read that as we get older, the outter layer of the eggs get really tough and it is hard for sperm to penetrate it, not forgetting that also there could be a lot of chromosomal abnormalities but DHEA betters the quality of your eggs, it sort of makes them younger as the chromosomal abnormalities happen when the cells start splitting after sperm enters egg. Apparently the lack of certain stuff in your body allows for errors to occur when the meiosis is happening is what makes chromosomal trisomies happen. So Coq10 also helps this process, I have read it is like a battery charger for the mitochondria of the eggs and it rejuvenate your eggs. So I believe I have been conceiving very easy now because of the supplements. I have a 60% of having this baby this time as I should have taken the meds before I got preggo and not after... but I am optimistic about it. At least now I know what the problem is. Why? how old are you? are you trying to conceive for a while?
