A little extra help??

Question

So my GP has suggested I consider trying something like clomid to conceive cos it’s been 2 yrs since my MC and still no luck getting a BFP 😭 I’m conflicted because I really want to conceive but I also really want to do everything as naturally as possible. Does anyone know of alternative options?
Please give me advice ladies... I’m starting to freak out about it all.

Answer

I have PCOS and I am currently 9w2d with my oops baby. 
Back in August I had a sprained sacrum. I was taking large doses of vit D and fish oil (along with some other natural anti inflammatories) and come to find out, both of those supplements encourage ovulation and implantation. 
It’s worth a try adding them into your daily supplements. 
Good luck!

I reached out to a naturopath after a few of what I am quite certain were chemical pregnancies, (I never liked to test early). She recommended introducing the ketogenic lifestyle. I followed it strictly for 3 months then just used what I learned to make smarter choices and was pregnant soon after with put first daughter. Keto is great for balancing hormones. Nettle leaf tea is also supposed to be hormone balancing. One doctor mentioned my progesterone being low so I tried natural progesterone cream after thorough research. I can't say for certain if that was why but baby number 2 was concieved on the first try. I also switched out many of my health and beauty products and now make many of my own. It really took lots of research and work on my own but for me and my babies, I felt it was so worth it to take a natural approach.

My struggles were similar trying for our second. Had a miscarriage and then took almost three years to get pregnant again. Tried clomid after a year and I regretted it quickly. Didn’t get pregnant and it messed up my hormones so bad. Horrible mood swings, hot flashes and night sweats for over a year. I can’t say what exactly “worked” for us to have our second child but I did make big changes to my lifestyle. I did a whole30 and kept up my nutrition. Tended to my gut health and lessened some stress and a couple months later we found out we were pregnant. 
All that to say is you do what you think your intuition is telling you. Hoping for you! ❤️

Answer

I took ashwaganda daily, my partner and I both took maca, and I took evening primrose oil from CD1 until I ovulated (I used ovulation tests from day 10 until I got a positive, just the cheap ones). I don't know for sure that they helped, but I did conceive! Good luck!

Answer

Have you taken your bbt to confirm that you are ovulating? Clomid will be pointless if you’re ovulating just fine already.
