What supplements/herbs helped you?

Has anyone felt like their fertility benefited from the use of supplements or herbs? If so, which ones? I felt this board was the most appropriate to ask this since everyone here got pregnant!

I came across these from my web searches:

DHEA
Maca root
L-Arginine

I also heard that Royal Jelly helps but I read that if you have allergies, it's best not to try it. Since I am allergic to alot of things, I'm going to stay away from that one.


Thanks.

I took royal jelly, vitex (chasteberry), and zinc based on some research I did. I also snacked on goji berries and took wheatgrass shots when I could (which meant when I passed a Jamba Juice in the city).

I had an luteal phase defect. It was 10 days or less before I got pregnant with DD and for the three months before I conceived with this baby, it was only 7-8 days. I can't be positive it was the supplements but I've gotten pregnant taking them twice now.

I took vitex and a b-50 complex. I also drank red raspberry leaf tea.

I drank womens toner tea. Took Vitex , prenatal vitamins, and low dose aspirin (after a chemical pregnancy)
During follicular phase also took evening primrose oil and mucinex.
Used pre-seed and charted my basal body temp each morning.
Good luck to you!
