Trouble TTC

Fertilaid

Has anyone tried this and has it shown any success in increasing sperm count? (Male Fertiliaid). Thanks!

 We have been trying to conceive for about a year and a half now and are planning on IVF in January. Last ditch effort, I ordered my husband two bottles of fertilaid before the procedure. I look forward to your responses! 

TTC since August 2010 IVF with ICSI! Jan/Feb 2012 Egg Retrieval on 2/14, 15 eggs retrieved with only 7 mature and 3 fertilized (2) Embryo Transfer on 2/10 with 8 cell, grade 1 and 8 cell grade 2 Beta on 2/21- 6 (yes, only a 6) 2nd Beta on 2/23-

Re: Fertilaid

  • Personally, I wouldn't hold my breath.  Make sure your RE knows that you're using a supplement, any and all supplements.  Some can have an affect on treatments so you want to make sure you're not doing anything that might cause any problems.  As long as your RE is okay with it, then you might as well give it a shot, just check with them first.

    We don't have any male factor issues, but I know that men can also try clomid.  It would depend ofcourse on what your specific dx is, but you can always ask about those types of options before IVF if you haven't tried those already.

    Good luck!!!

  • MH is taking supplements that include most of what's in fertilaid (and some others). Count isn't a problem for him as he's in the low range of normal, but we're hoping to increase all his numbers.  We won't know if it's helping for another month though.

    I've read a lot of studies (mostly about motility/morphology because those are our problems), which show that supplements can help.

    In my opinion, it can't hurt to try!

    Good luck!
