"Method" - are you looking for answers timing-wise, supplement -wise, bd-wise or all of those areas?

To be completely honest anything...I have read so many different things and I can't possibly try them all when I have one shot...at least until mar 2016 then I'll have plenty of time to get back on a real TTC schedule. I'm hoping there is stuff I can do for my body now to prepare...I've heard about fertility massage, vitex, maca root, yoga positions etc. I have had no luck with the military getting me to see a specialist so drugs like clomid are out of the question. Thanks!

To get the timing right: BBT charting and OPKs. To enhance fertile mucus: borage seed oil or evening primrose oil. In addition try pre seed (sperm friendly) and/or mucinex. Supplements that enhance egg quality need to be taken for 3-4 months on a regular basis before you see a benefit to the eggs. (This is the amount of time it takes for an egg to get "ready" prior to ovulation). For egg quality: ubiquinol, DHEA (dont take if you have PCOS), google the combination of myo-inositol with melatonin; royal jelly is good. Important: prenatal vitamin, additionally a vit b complex, folic acid, vit D. Google pycnogenol and l-arginine. Have your hubby take vitamins also, centrum silver for men is good. Read up on nutrition and fertility. Lots of dark leafy greens, an egg a day, no sugar, eliminate dairy and wheat products. Take fishoil daily. Eliminate caffeine, no smoking. These are just suggestions. Look into what might be helpful to you. Message me if you like. Bes

Best wishes :)

I forgot to mention that fertility acupuncture and Maya abdominal massage is an excellent way to improve blood circulation and therefore fertility. I have been doing both for a while, no BFP yet but this is related to my "advanced age".
