I am wondering if anyone knows of any Herbal or Organic methods of increasing my chances of fertility? Also, I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with anything besides prescription medications even OTC, vitamins, minerals?? I know its a broad question but please if anyone has any insight it would be so appreciated as google searches are beginning to get on my nerves! lol

Hi Hun,
Well after trying EVERYTHING on the market iv come across a herb called MACA it has been recommeded by a few ladies on here. I take 1000mg CD1-14 then 500mg 14-29. For me it has helped soooo much it has increased my CM and thinned it out & increased my sex drive like mad i know when your ttc sex can become a little mechanical and its all about baby making on this i feel im a little more "horny" therefore sex is more spontanious rather than ohh its CD12 go to bed do the deed and go to sleep, it all gets about baby making and not that you love eachother and its a part of your relationship... if u get what i mean by that?!?
I also take folic acid and a multivitamin, DH takes Zinc & iron and a tablet called horny goat weed, He takes the goat weed (tablet form) for training at the gym as its got tribulous in but he also says it increases his sex drive (not like that is needed LOLz)
I got the Maca off ebay, If you would like the link please feel free to PM me and i will send you the link.
Good luck with your TTC journey hunni. SSBD

I'm six weeks pregnant and I had only 15% chance of getting pregnant through in vitro.. I have high FSH and diminished ovarian reserve.
When I found out about it, I started going to acupuncture and taking Chinese herbs.
I think it has helped a lot! I am also strong believer in good supplementation, not the kind you can get in the regular stores, but in Health Food chains or online. I know from my acupuncturist that it's very important to keep your belly warm at all times - drink hot teas, dress warm etc.
Another thing I heard from my doc: In certain countries they use very low dose (5mg) of Naltrexone to increase fertility and pregnancy rate.
Just a few things:)
Good luck!
