    TTC 10+ Months, Vitamins? Advice?

    Afternoon, my partner and i have been TTC for just over 10 months and had no luck. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this and still fallen pregnant naturally? Should i be taking any vitamins? Any advice would be great, thanks

    Thanks for the advice ladies!!

    DH and I ttc for 7 months, I am not sure what finally worked but somthing did, so here is what we did!
    Firstly I charted my cycle, interesting, as timing am have been an issue...
    I did do a lot of reading though and starting taking a number of vitamins
    This is what I took and way
    Vitamin D - I found out I was low in this and that it may effect fatility
    Evening Primrose Oil - To lumb everything up down there
    Asparagus Root - Increases blood flow to your uterus, its not recommended to take during PG so if you do take this stop as soon as you get a positive test result.

    I also mad DH take Pak Ginseng its meant to help the swimmers be stronger and faster

    So I am not sure what it was that helped in the end but there where some changes when I was on them, I had a lot more CM and it ended up working.

    Give it a go you have nothing to loose, to be honest I thought there was no way I could concive the month we did, I was away and only got home on the day of O, we had one shot...... ended up being the money shot!

    Wishing you all the best

    chow that is interesting about what you did! i do think i need to increase blood flow to uterus as i do a lot of running etc and apparently that takes the blood away from it! congrats to you!

    aamy4 - i'm in the same boat as you... nothing wrong with me and been TTCing for awhile now! i hope it happens soon for you

    aamy - I have been taking multi-vitamins and fish oil, but I've heard a lot of different people who are taking lots of different things. There is still a chance for you to fall pregnant without any intervention. You should come join us in the 6+ months TTC buddies chat. One of our memebers just got a BFP after I think it was 7 or 8 months.
    If nothing else we might be able to give you some support and it will let you know you're not out there trying on your own.
