What should b added in diet 2 increase fertility n increase the chances of pregnancy?

[babysss]

As I couldn't find DHA seperately so I bought fish oil capsules (omega-3 fatty acid) Ahh no other choice,

[babysss]

What should b good 4 DH?
Zinc 15mg
Vitamin E 1000mg
+ what......

I heard something about the flaxseeds in a semirar few weks ago and it actually in high dosis does not help with fertility. Get DHA by itself instead

[minney930]

What about flaxseed oil as omega-3 fatty acid supplement? Is it better than fish oil? Or does it have the EPA prob?

[babysss]

Adequate zinc is critical for maintaining optimum semen volume and blood testosterone levels in men. Researchers at King Saud University in Saudi Arabia have found supplemental vitamin E to dramatically improve sperm mobility and viability. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin suggest that consuming 1,000 mg. of calcium and 10 mcg. of vitamin D each day may improve men's fertility.

Thank u 4 ur reply bt jams contain high levels of suger is it safe as Drs. give glucophage 4 conception.

EPA sorry. This is what the internet says about fish oils:

Precautions:

Fish oil capsules contain both DHA and EPA. Supplements containing EPA may not be recommended for infants or small children because they upset the balance between DHA and EPA during early development. Pregnant women should talk to their doctor before taking fish oil supplements.

Fish oil capsules may cause minor side effects, such as loose stools, abdominal discomfort, and belching. In addition, they may prolong bleeding time slightly. If you take blood-thinning medication, talk to your doctor before taking fish oil.

DHA is a omega fatty acid but buy it by itself in pharmacies and NOT as FISH IOL becase fish iol has ETA as well and it may affect the baby.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid. It is found in cold water fatty fish and fish oil supplements, along with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Vegetarian sources of DHA come from seaweed. DHA is essential for the proper functioning of our brains as adults, and for the development of our nervous system and visual abilities during the first 6 months of life. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids are part of a healthy diet that helps lower risk of heart disease. Our bodies naturally produce small amounts of DHA, but we must get the amounts we need from our diet or supplements. Most people in the Western world do not get enough omega-3 fatty acids in their diet.

I had a nurse tell me that jams increase fertility (for woman) and I also heard the same thing on one of those Pregnancy shows on cable. The same nurse also told me to have DH drink canberry juice that it helps the swimmers.

Good Luck.

[babysss]

Thanks 4 ur reply bt how 2 increase zinc n what is DHA?

[Mariana101]

ASK your doctor before taking aspirin though, since is a blod thinner. Extra Zinc is also good but mostly relaxation:) Prenatal vitamins w DHA are of course a plus for any woman trying to conveive

I've read that core of a pineapple, folic acid, asprine n grape fruit help in conception.
