Question

Herbal therapy making it worse?

I have been on Femara for several months. I did fall pregnant, but had a miscarriage. SO now we are starting all over again. On 2nd month of Femara I decided to try some herbal remedies and acupuncture as well to support the Femara, but when I went for my scan it not only showed that I will not ovulate (thus Femara was not successful) but my PCOS has gotten worse - there was an increase in the amount and sizes of my cysts. DR put me on the pill for a month to see if we can calm my ovaries down. This was the first time that I saw something like this. Could it be the herbs and acupuncture....?

It is difficult to say if the herbs and/or accupuncture have worstened your condition. The one thing I know is that some herbal remedies can interfere with medications. One herbal fertility product that I used to use months ago clearly states on the back that it should not be used in conjunction with fertility treatments. Best wishes and the Lord's blessings.
