What are you taking??

As far as vitamins/supplements to help things along with TTC? I know B6 to help lengthen the luteal phase. But what other things to help make you more fertile???

Re: What are you taking??

Mostly just a Women's One-A-Day multivitamin. It has 100% of B6, B12, Folic Acid, Iron and others. It also has more Calcium & Iron than some of the prenatals do.

I took a B complex Saturday in addition. It turned my urine neon yellow.

I also take Evening Primrose Oil which is supposed to help make "fertile quality cervical fluid." (And alleviate some PMS/AF symptoms)

I take prenatals but when they run out I am going to try a chewable multivitamin. I also take a flax seed oil supplement

I'm taking Vitex because I have PCOS and it's supposed to regulate your cycles and help with ovulation. That's it for me!

Re: What are you taking??

right now I'm just taking a Prenatal vitamin with 800mcg folic acid. But I'm notebooking this thread because I definitely want to find something to help with O-ing.

I am taking:
- prenatal vitamin (was previously taking a multivitamin plus a folic acid supplement so this is easier)
- flaxseed oil supplement (suggested by my regular doc for my digestive tract)
- vitamin c (500mg)

I was previously also taking B-100 for a medical reason, but stopped that. Now that I know it can help with your luteal phase, I'm not sure if I should start taking it again.
