Herbal Remedies & Supplements for TTC

[myson]

Hi all, I have been taking Ovulex since the beginning of January. No bad side effects to report.

After 6 years of Implanon, and a very irregular cycle before that, I thought this would be a good way of sorting out my cycle and hopefully speeding up the process (my clock is ticking like a jack hammer).

It seems to be slowly bringing my cycles back on track. Lets hope its as wonderful as the rave reviews it has been getting!!!!

Anyone else out there taking it?

Hi, I am wondering if anyone has any information on naturopaths in Victoria (specifically Melbourne or Geelong) that have a special interest in fertility. I have read about The Jocelyn Clinic in Sydney and it sounds fascinating, and ideal, but is a long way from home. We have a beautiful daughter thanks to IVF but I would like to try a more natural process this time around. Any information or thoughts from anyone would be appreciated.

Hi bbb
I have just made an appointment with an acupuncturist who specialises in chinese medicine - who deals only with fertility and pregnancy. I am looking for some success stories also and any information from others. I will post back here once I have had my first appointment.

Well Hi everyone,
It's been 6 months since i was told i would not have another child. The specialists said my ovaries were failing and i was peri-menopausal, the chances of me having normal periods again was slim. I was not ready to accept this. My husband is Chinese and so we looked for a Chinese dr in perth. We found this most wonderful lady who has limited english (lucky he can speak Mandarin) I have seen her every week for 3 months now and found out this week that I am In fact Pregnant. The herbs worked wonders for me and seemed to reverse everything the fertility dr's said would not happen. The specialists had such one track minds and were not willing to do anything. I have early menopause in my family (around age 36 -38) I am 38 and so they were just not narrow minded nad compketely ruled it out.
Here is a good story, i thought i would share. The Chinese Medicine works but i believe you need to first believe it will work and above all relax.
Good Luck everyone.

Hello
I have seen my acupuncturist again this morning, and she is concerned that my ovaries and womb may be too cold... and so the progesterone may not be reacting as it should. As a result, she has put me onto some chinese herbs which unfortunately are in powder format rather than tablet. Not nice...

They should help my liver, spleen and general indigestion, progesterone and general well-being. Here's hoping. I am feeling a bit more in control I must say, through taking the herbs, having acupuncture and seeing the FS. So, as a result feeling more positive. In saying that I am at 11 dpo, day 25 of a 28 day cycle. Hard to keep my mind off anything but the dreaded upcoming AF possibility!
