Pineapple Method

[Nikki5555]

Hello. So I am 2DPO and trying out the pineapple method. If u haven't heard of it, that's where you eat pineapple core for your first 5 days past ovulation. you cut the core into 5 pieces and eat 1 piece a day from 1-5dpo. Apparently the core has something in it called Bromelain that is supposed to improve your chances of implantation. Has anyone been successful with this?

I haven't had success with this, but I have tried it. I just cut the entire pineapple into 5 sections, including core, and put it in a smoothie. The core is so bitter and hard, it's pretty gross. The good part of the pineapple & adding it to smoothie helped mask it.

Brazil nuts also have high levels of bromelain. I don't know how the amounts compare but it might be worth it to compare as brazil nuts are good. I now eat them nearly every day.

I just read about Brazil nuts today also. I may need to try those. thank you! I also hear that they have Bromelain pills. I wonder if they work!

I did pineapple core with my loss. And Brazil nuts with my lo. Coincidence maybe, but both worked. Just make sure not to take them past 5dpo as it can be harmful after that.

Oh wow never heard of this going to try the nuts as pineapple sounds a little gross lol

I've done pineapple without luck (doesn't mean it doesn't work). I figure what's the harm - I like to eat pineapple and it's good for you anyway. I find the taste somewhat neutral and don't mind eating it raw.

@Nikki, I believe I am 2DPO today and just had my second serving of core. So I'm just a few days behind you.

@kylas - I've never heard either pineapple core or brazil nuts can be harmful after 5po - how so?

It can cause uterine contractions so taking it after implantation can cause a miscarriage.

Did both the Brazil nuts and pineapple but I do it thru my 2ww and the 2 times I've done it I've gotten pregnant the same month.
