Okay thanks kindergal... Yeah I know... I'm wondering of some ways I can convince dh to quit smoking. Yeah I'm going to try the OPK's to see.. And if not does clomid work? Yeah I know I'm starting early... But thanks for your info.
Me nor my dh smoke, but my RE has that on his list of "No Nos" It can decrease and harm the sperm.
Most likely, your Dr. would not even begin to test you for fertility problems until you have been trying for a year at your age.
Clomid helps you to ovulate so you need to do OPKs to see if you ovulate on your own before you go down that road.
Okay thanks girls. I guess I will see. Hopefully it helps. Does the clomid and other fertility drugs help?? I'm just wondering. I've only been ttc for 2 months but I can't afford a lot of meds, or fertility drugs yet.. Until I know I need some. But I'm just wondering if me not being prego has something to do with dh smoking, and me not knowing exactly when I O.
I take rx prenatals and an additional folic acid
This are all recommended by my RE..and I take them.
-----Pre natal vitamins--I buy over the counter...I compare the ones on the shelf and purchase the ones with the most Folic Acid
-----Vitamin B12 @1000mg for both myself and my dh
-----Vitamin B6
-----Omega 3..I was taking this anyway due to high cholesterol, but my RE has it on his list of things to take
Thanks... I'm going to try and get some today... Are you still ttc or prego??? And good luck to you....
I'm taking prenatal vitamins prescribed by my RE.
If you are TTC you should take vitamins in particular folic acid.
good luck,
Miky
