Good morning all,

I am new to Nairaland although i have been a silent follower on the TTC and ART forums for almost 2 years now. I have been battling with secondary infertility for almost 7 years. I had a miscarriage after a Clomid therapy (over 3 months) and no pregnancy since then. I have also had hysteroscopy this year and asked to try naturally for some months, and thereafter probably IVF. I have always had issues with AF and ovulation, so PCOS was diagnosed but then, my hormonal profile did not really fit into that range

For now, I just want to keep my body 'clean' and try naturally till end of the year. I appreciate all the good work done by everyone on this forum and may God bless you all. You have been blessings to me and my family and may God reward you and meet you at your point of need.

As per bee pollen, here is the one I have been using for about 2 months now: http://www.apitherapywellbeing.co.uk/wellbeing-range/apimist-and-apimist-plus/product/apimist-plus-pollen. I learnt about it on the UK fertility forum (fertilityfriends). I asked someone to bring it from the UK for me. It is a mixture of of fresh Royal Jelly, Propolis, and Pollen, in a base of pure honey and I take a teaspoon daily. I don't know if it has done anything yet but I just wanted to mention it, and that it got good reviews. I don't know if they ship to Nigeria also.

Sorry for my long post....do have a good weekend.

Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Beetle: 8:08pm On Oct 25, 2013
@ Ofa, that was the exact one I took but had to stop cos of my immunes. It's so yummy! Post your hormonal profile here and we might be able to help. But of you have issues shouldn't you b taking something to regulate your hormones? Metformin for PCOS?? Hope that helps.

What of the ACV everyone is swearing by. Have u tried that?
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by LoreTemi1(f): 8:30pm On Oct 25, 2013

Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by OfaTruth: 9:04am On Oct 26, 2013
Good morning sisters,

@Beetle, yes it's so so yummy. Sorry about the immune issues though. Below is my hormonal profile (Pls forgive me if I am derailing the thread sisters):
AMH=3.23ng/ml, FSH 8.0 IU/L, LH 5.2 IU/L, Dheas 3.20. My TVS showed a retroverted uterus, slightly deviated to the right, the right ovary measured 31.5mm while the left measured 22.9mm. This was done last year at The Bridge and their recommendation was IVF. I wasn't convinced. When I visited the UK, I visited Zita West clinic but didn't go through all the tests again (still valid); just did a review of the tests with the doctors and the result was also IVF.

Yes, I have taken Pregnitude on and off and some metformin too. My clearblue monitor shows that I am ovulating on and off and after bd, but no preg. My husband's panel is good though. I am on CD3 now after 53 days cycle shocked and I am seeing the doc on CD 21 for some tests and thereafter probably start with metformin again. But I want to go the natural way for help. I am starting the ACV after my detox also as prescribed. I am trying to choose between the natural-fertility-info fertility cleanse and the biotanical health one for the detox (I can get them next week). Please which one is better considering I have started AF?

Mamas, please any advise?

Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by OfaTruth: 9:37am On Oct 26, 2013
@Honeypie, I am taking the natural line now. I want to detox, do the ACV therapy and take it from there. Thanks for your usual assistance.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by yummyk: 1:42pm On Oct 26, 2013
Hi all ,
@honiepie its natural im going 4 nw by God's grace.im on day 5 of my shake up detox and evrythinis on course bt I notice my urine is kind of yellowish 2day, hope is nothing to worry abt?
Will start d acv - bsm after detox as u prescribed
Pls let me knw wht's next after dat.
@all im believing God 4 as many dat wnt it naturally dat He will do it 4 us in a wonderful way and all our expectations shall nt be cut short.pls have a wonderful weekend.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Cocodiva: 3:04pm On Oct 26, 2013
Good day all,hope we're enjoying the weekend
@enkaay,I don't think its something to be worried about. I'm presently on acv and having some of those symptoms.seems it's the effect of what you're taking and the body adjusting and trying to do its thing !
@twingirls,you're on the right track with the dietary and lifestyle changes you're making.its just good to monitor the body by having tests from time to time.these dh! Its only God that can guide one on how to handle them.they can be so uptight in their decisions.just try to keep mentioning it especially when he's in the clouds with you(know what I mean wink
@ofatruth,its good you're going the natural route.That'l put your body in a good place. If you want to do the fertility cleanse in this cycle,(which is an awesome plan), you have to place your order quickly.because it should start few days after AF.the one from NFS is structured with dates from the beginning of your cycle.both are good.Biotanical is more comprehensive(with colon and kidney cleanse) and hence more pricey.happy cleansing!
@all,enjoy!!!
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Beetle: 3:58pm On Oct 26, 2013
@ Oga truth, you met the one and only Dr Ndukwe that everyone's talking about. He's quite good on the immunes front and quite successful as well, just moved down to London from Nottingham. I'm quite shocked you're taking shakes, cos I know ZW has nutritionist et all in her clinic. And I know quite well she puts u on her vitamin regime. Did you get Zita West's book. She talked about doing 7- 10 day detox. I'm rooting for Metformin for you. Ratio of LH and FSH must be 1:1 to have PCOS tho. It's well o my sis.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Nobody: 8:48pm On Oct 26, 2013
Thanks a lot Coco diva. Now my mind is at rest.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by OfaTruth: 7:03am On Oct 27, 2013
@coco, thanks a lot for the comparison. It was helpful.

@Beetle, yes, it was Dr. George Ndukwe. He moved from CARE Notthingham. I wanted to book an appointment with the nutritionist but I thought it was going to be oyinbo food so I declined. I have ZW book Fertility and Conception. I don't think I can strictly follow the detox plan that's why the shake off or detox kit is easier for me. Thanks for your advise on metformin.

@honeypie, thank you.

@all, have a wonderful Sunday and blessed week.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Nobody: 8:17am On Oct 27, 2013
Hello everyone,

For biotanical herbs, the detox process for me then was a bit stressful. I didn't complete it. But for those who don't want to order directly from their website, this is the contact of their agent


How do I order your products from Nigeria?
You can use your Visa, MasterCard or Paypal account to pay for our products, but if you do not have a card, you can order direct from our authorized agent in Nigeria, who you can contact at:

@
Honiepie24: even hopeful3 don turn doctor,hehe weldon sis,how did d trip go?bring us goodies ooh.
This got me laughing....guess u and cocodiva are good teachers!! grin

@ all enjoy ur day.
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Beetle: 8:17am On Oct 27, 2013
@ ofagirl, next time you take advantage of everything. The nutritionist would have ran a test and told u what vitamins you were lacking. No it's not about oyibo food it's about getting a tailored tx which at the end of the day would be beneficial to yourself. No fertility clinics have a in house nutritionist in UK. Zita west has that cos she's a nutritionist who has just branched into Fertility tx. Anyway sha, all the best but pls have a dr check out ur results b4 embarking into Metformin tx. I'm not a Dr o just a TTC lady who has gone through the mills.

Ladies, u all have a good Sunday!
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Cocodiva: 9:41am On Oct 27, 2013
Hello all,
@hopeful,what made the biotanical detox stressful?was it the quantity of pills or what? On the other hand,the cleanse from NFS was pleasant for me.mostly teas and some pills.the women's best friend was very effective for infection.
And yes ,you're a good teacher.your posts have been very educative and helpful.
@all, have a nice day!
Re: Alternative Methods To TTC by Nobody: 10:59am On Oct 27, 2013
My dear Cocodiva, there is nothing I have not tried. I used the detox from biotanical herbs in 2009, I can't remember the whole process and other details, but u have to get grapefruits or lemon, olive oil and some other things ( I can't really remember) and I was working in a commercial bank then. It wasn't easy preparing the mixture in the mornings b4 leaving for work. For me it was just stressful.

Let me give an update on my cleanse last month. I used edmark shakeoff for 3 days after af. I took Trevor, acv + bsm. The week I was expecting af, I took liver flushing tea,capsule and milk thistle seed extract (all from NFS)...I have irregular cycles but this cycle I ended up with a 30 day cycle. This month, I had a clot free, painless and normal red af. Which for me was a great improvement. Though I am still battling with my infection, I will bring out my 'women's best friend' capsules from NFS (@ Cocodiva just reminded me. I forgot totally shocked..thanks a lot) kiss

My sistas and bros, as we trust God and medicine as we TTC, its important we also pray and secure their lives even before they arrive. I came across this brief message which I enjoin us to open, listen, pray and be blessed. I haven't stopped listening over and over since I got it oo.
Sorry if I digressed the thread.
