Secondary IF

POM juice.

Anyone else drink this?  It greatly improved my lining when TTC DD so I jumped right into it this time around.  I hate it.  It tastes so bitter!  I don't remember feeling this way before.  Just wondered for curiosity what you ladies think of it?

Re: POM juice.

  • Its really rich.  It was tough to drink, but i choked it down several cycles ago.  They have two giant bottles at costco for a decent deal. :)

  • I drank it the cycle of my first BFP. Who knows if it helped... I use to mix it with grapefruit juice and sparkling water. The fizz made it tolerable.
    Sept 2013 started TTC#2 (never got PP period so hoping for the first egg to drop)
    Jan 2014 - diagnosed POF (Premature Ovarian Failure) and told pregnancy not possible without egg donor because my ovaries would never function again with my hormone levels (FSH 136, LH 98.6, AMH <.03, estradiol 0, HCG 7) - using acupuncture, chiropractic care and TCM herbs / supplements
    March 11, 2014 ovulated despite every doctors prognosis!!!
    Oct 2014 hormones (FSH 48, Estradiol 89, HCG 1) not good, but heckuva lot better!

    Nov. 16, 2015 FET of single adopted 5AA embryo - BFN

    ?? No?  I meant to post it here.  Did I break a rule or etiquette rule in doing so?  I apologize if that is the case.

    No, but this board is past the POM juice phase, this seems more like a TTGP question, we're doing medication IUIs and IVF cycles here. I think 3TAS is probably a better fit for you right now :)

    I completely understand what you are saying and by no means what so ever would ever want to seem petty or insensitive to any of you ladies.  However, I too am doing medicated cycles and if this month doesn't work with meds and TI we will head straight to IUI which is how we conceived DD.  POM juice is something I drank every cycle when TTC DD because it truly helps my lining (or it is a huge coincidence lol).  I am so sorry if I stepped on any toes.  I have been posting on 3TAS as well but feel I am somewhere in limbo in between boards where I belong.  I will try to be more cautious about what I post here and I appreciate your bringing it to my attention as again I would never want to seem insensitive.

  • I did POM juice and my lining was great, but it was good without it too. Also did pineapple after transfer. Still no success. At this point, I am past POM and pineapple, and accupuncture too. =)
