Any truth to Geritol and Pregnancy

Does anyone have a success story about getting pregnant after using Geritol.  I have heard that can increase the chances of TTC

Hi all! I'd heard from my mother that she took geritol before getting pregnant with both me and my sister and there were no side effects. In December 2004 I found out that I was pregnant with my first child. I was two months pregnant. In January 2005 I had a miscarriage and I was badly hurt. I was so happy about being pregnant and to lose it was horrible. In April 2005 the father and I decided to try again, but it wasn't working.

Because we really wanted a baby, I started taking geritol. Liquid form. By June 2005 I was pregnant with my second child! I had some complications with the pregnancy, but only due to the illness that had cause me to miscarry the first time. The geritol had no side effect on me or my son. March 2006 I gave birth to a healthy baby boy! I'm not saying that geritol was the main factor in my giving birth, but I do believe that it had a lot to do with me getting pregnant so fast after I started taking it.

I hope this helps those who are considering geritol, but know that nothing works the same for everyone. Don't give up and I'm sure that soon you'll have the baby you've always wanted.
