I have been doing alot of research on this supplement. There are alot of scary side effects, and alot of success stories in coordination with IVF. With 3 chemical pregancies under my belt I figure that it can't hurt right? I'm just wondering if anyone else has tried it. Thank you!

    Can I ask how much you take daily an when did you start in your cycle? Also, did you notice any side effects? THANK YOU!

    I had a conversation with FinallyReilly (hoping I spelt that right) the other day about DHEA, she took it last cycle and is doing it again for this one. I think she said she took it 3 times a day leading up to stims, then stopped once stims started. She is contimplating doing it through stims but lowering the dose for this IVF.

    You may want to try paging her for more info! I have just started researching it myself. 

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!

    Thanks so much! That is very helpful. I just read online that alot of people take it though the ER and stop then. The possible side effects are a little scary, but most people had none at all.
