Ive heard of women taking these or fertilaid. This is my first cycle taking fertilaid. What's the big difference?

Ive heard of women taking these or fertilaid. This is my first cycle taking fertilaid. What's the big difference?

Im not completely sure about fertilaid. From what I know about it its just a multivitamin. soy isoflavones is the natural version of clomid. You take them for only 5 days at the beginning you your cycle and they kind of "hide" your estrogen so your body doesn't think you are making enough so your body is tricked into making more than usual which induces a strong ovulation for most women who take it. Many many women conceived with soy isoflavones on the first attempt if you research it. which is why I gave it a try and here I am! Good luck to you! and if you have any more questions feel free to ask!

Congratulations!!!
What's the dosage and days did you use? I took soy this cycle. I'm on CD 9 and I have tons of EWCM already!!!

I've just heard about this 'natural Clomid' and really considering it. What strength do you take and which days of cycle? oh and do you combine with any other 'fertility boosting' supplements?

I took 80mg on cd 4,5, and 6 and 120mg on 7 and 8. I also was taking geritol complete(which also is supposed to have "a baby in every bottle"). rosasara-I had a good amount of ewcm around cd 10 as well! don't worry if it disappears though. My ewcm was not visible by time i ovulated and I was upset about it but I still conceived anyways! ellekayejaye- I would totally recommend it to you! Good luck ladies!

Hi
How do you take the geritol in combination with the soy? WHat does the geritol do?

I took geritol complete from cd 1 all the way through. its just a "high potency" vitamin that old timers say has a baby in every bottle.

Sounds good except I live in Canada so I don't think I can buy it here. Luckily I am going to the USA in a few weeks so I will buy some thne. Do you take just one Geritol a day? I want to be sure to buy enough. Where is the best to buy it? CVS? Target ? Walmart?
Thanks for the info can't wait to try next cycle!

yes I took it just once a day. There is a liquid kind called gertiol tonic which taste HORRIBLE. and theres geritol complete which is a pill and thats what I took. I got mine at walmart. I would imagine that cvs or walgreens would have it but I dont know for sure.
