Trouble TTC

Brief Introduction

Hey ladies!

I have been posting / lurking on TTGP for a while now and I think I am finally ready to post over here. (I have had some problems admitting that we were having trouble, even though I only ovulated about 5-6 times a year) We have been trying since June 2009, charting since December 2009, and I have PCOS.  I am currently seeing an herbalist once a month and am taking the following herbs: Vitex, Dandelion, Black Cohosh, Cramp Bark, and Red rasberry leaf tea.  I am also seeing an acupuncturist twice a week.  I wanted to try every natural thing I could think of before taking drugs that I have heard are less than pleasant.  If it doesn't work, my OB wants to discuss Clomid at my next appointment at the end of February. Im excited but very nervous!  

I wanted to wish you all the very best of luck and I look forward to learning a lot from you!

Re: Brief Introduction

  • Good luck! And FWIW, I just finished my first round of Clomid and had zero side effects.

    Welcome and good luck! Just remember, stop taking the supplements a few months prior to clomid, and if you can, seek a RE instead of your OB. They'll be able to do more for you to help you :)

    Papps gives great advice :)  Welcome and GL!
