Will consumption of folic acid and evening primrose oil increase your chance to get pregnant?

I have been trying to conceive for 3 yrs. I have also been to fertility centre with 2 failed IUI cycles. One of my friend suggested me to consistantly taking EPO and FA as well as drink anmum (for maternal powder milk) if I want to get pregnant naturally. I am a bit skeptical after all I have been through (like taking clomid 4 times and laparoscopy operation, 2 IUI, acupunture and herbalist with no succes story). Anyone with succes story with those pills? Or any other suggestion for me to get pregnant naturally?

Will consumption of folic acid and evening primrose oil increase your chance to get pregnant?
I am wondering if the friend that suggested these things has any idea what she is talking about





I did about 4-5 clomid cycles and about 4 cycles of ovulation induction (similar to IUI but with intercourse no injection of the sperm)





none of it worked for me either but then i just fell pregnant naturally - i am now 12 weeks





i was not doing anything differently - i had always been taking folic acid. i think relax and do not think about it - we went on an interstate trip and partied hard the weekend i believe i conceived - it was a fabulous weekend away with 2 other couples and it will stay with me forever now..........





good luck - you will get there
Reply:i have heard that it is advisable to take folic acid 3 months before ttc because it reduces defects in the baby.but i have never heard that it might actually help in conceiving.
Reply:Folic acid only helps prevent the chances of the baby having a hole in it's spine. I don't know about the combo or the other.
Reply:its supportive


u need to go to a obstretician
Reply:take folic acid when trying to conceive and having sex when you are having a period is another good time to get pregnant good luck
