Basically science has been studying these two enzymes for decades. Basically. These pills have nothing to do with "fucking" anything up. Just wondering if anyone has tried them!

Thanks

Have you talked to your doctor about them? Messing around with supplements is a bad idea without a doctor's advice. You have no idea what they will do to YOUR body.

I can't find any significant studies discussing wobenzyme, and the only thing I can find on serrapeptase is that while studies have been conducted, most have been poorly constructed, and in 2011 there was a major recall of the product because it was found to be ineffective. I can't find any evidence supporting the claims of the author in the link you shared. I'm also concerned about the author's credentials. She didn't attend a credentialed school of naturopathic medicine, and her labor doula qualifications (also suspect, I would research more about the quality of her qualifications) in no way qualify her to give advice on fertility supplements.

Any time you take something that claims it might help you get pregnant or override some underlying medical issues that could be preventing you from getting or staying pregnant, you run the risk that it might also negatively impact something in your body that is already working, and that it might in fact worsen your underlying medical issue(s) or create a new medical issue. If you didn't think it had the ability to impact your fertility, you wouldn't be interested in taking it, and if you agree that it has the ability to impact your fertility (the only reason you want to take it), then you have to understand that the impact might not be positive. 

Talk to your doctor. If you have decided to reject Western medical care, seek out a credentialed naturopath to do some diagnostics and help you develop a plan that might be able to help you. Don't just take some random stuff you ordered off the internet because some a pretty white lady with letters after her name wrote a credible-sounding article.

Please please PLEASE talk to your doctor before taking random supplements that you read about on the Internet.

From somebody who was willing to try anything...I wouldn't try it. Some of this stuff (and I have no idea about these and never came across them in my neurotic googling) can really mess you up. Doctors can't/won't ok it bc it's not studied properly. If you haven't been RE tested, I wouldn't be putting effort into potentially risky supps.
