Guest guest Posted February 5, 2001 Report Share Posted February 5, 2001 Hello, I'm new to the group and just started taking herbs for fertility this cycle. On Day five I started with vitex, red raspberry leaf and red clover. On Day 17 (ovulation on day 16) I added false unicorn and B6. Because of the herbs I ovulated 3 days earlier than I have been, and my basal body temperature shot way up the day after o (usually it rises slowly) and has remained high so far I'm on day 20). If I get pregnant, which of these herbs should I continue using? I had a miscarriage in May 2000 at 10 wks, although the fetus had stopped growing at 8 wks). I started charting my temperatures after that and found I only had a 8 day luteal phase. I started to take the B6 and it lengthened it to 12 days. Only when I took the herbs this cycle did my temperatures rise like it should after ovulation. Could I be deficient on progesterone? Since any herbs that one takes crosses the placenta I'm wondering which herbs would be safe to take during pregnancy? Thanks in advance.
