Good night, that is a mouth full! Yes, I am reviewing 4 different products which means that the great people over at Fairhaven Health will be giving one lucky winner a pretty cool prize package of everything I am reviewing for you today. So let me get straight to it because I have a lot to say about each product.
I was sent a package that was tailored to my fertility needs and contained FertiliTea, FertilAid, FertileCM and Bend, Breathe, Conceive Fertility Yoga dvd. Most already know, but if you don't, I have PCOS and I don't ovulate on my own.
FertiliTea "a herbal fertility tea designed to support the entire reproductive system and help increase your chances of conceiving. FertiliTea™ brings together scientifically-validated herbal ingredients (including Vitex) to help restore female balance and promote reproductive wellness."
My opinion of it is mixed. I liked the flavor when I didn't over steep it. It does contain Nettle which if you have never had the experience of tasting Nettle before, don't. I have a blog post in regards to when I tried Nettle and if I recall correctly my description of it was "it tasted like dirt, feet and ass all mixed." So word of advice, don't over steep this tea, the flavor will be in your mouth forever and one you will never forget. Otherwise, the tea tasted great and was easy to drink without needing sweetened and could be enjoyed cold or hot. I learned to make a quart sized mason jar and that was my allotted tea for the day. Pretty easy once I got past how to use loose leaf tea and get all of its scragglers out of my tea.
Now the downside of FertiliTea. I had to stop the FertiliTea as it was making me spot/bleed throughout my cycle when I shouldn't have been. I did have to play some detective work to narrow down what was causing it and without a doubt, it was the tea. Once I stopped the tea, the spotting stopped as well. The site does say that most women experience spotting while their hormones are adjusting but after all the years of trying to fix my body I could tell this was more then an adjustment period.
Moving onto FertilAid for Women. "FertilAid for Women is the doctor-approved and ObGyn-recommended supplement designed to increase fertility and improve reproductive health. With an all natural, non-prescription formula that brings together scientifically-validated herbal ingredients and essential vitamins, FertilAid promotes female hormonal balance and reproductive wellness, supporting fertility and optimizing your chances to conceive.

With an all natural, non-prescription formula that brings together scientifically-validated herbal ingredients and essential vitamins, FertilAid promotes female hormonal balance and reproductive wellness, supporting fertility and optimizing your chances to conceive.
Created by ObGyn and leading fertility expert, Amos Grunebaum,
MD, FertilAid for Women combines fertility-enhancing nutrients with a “Just
Right” formula of folic acid, essential vitamins and minerals, and key
antioxidants. This comprehensive formula makes it the only fertility supplement
offering total preconception vitamin support - optimized for trying-to-conceive
women.
FertilAid for Women was formulated on the basis of established
scientific literature to help optimize fertility safely and naturally as part
of a healthy diet and lifestyle. With a proprietary herbal formula that includes
chasteberry (vitex), red clover blossom, siberian ginseng, and gingko biloba,
FertilAid helps restore hormonal balance while supporting overall reproductive
wellness.
FertilAid has no negative side effects and has no impact on multiple births."
I didn't find this product to be too bad and I had some pretty positive results. The directions state to take 3 capsules daily so I take them all in the morning after breakfast with 16 ounces of water. The results I had was amazing. Like I mentioned after stopping the FertiliTea, my spotting went away. 2 days after the spotting ended, I started gearing up to ovulate and successfully did so! Whoop-dee-do for some, but for me who needs fertility meds to make ovulation happen, this is huge!!! Now I can only imagine it was the FertilAid and its ingredients that helped to me to ovulate as my last ovulation was in January on my last medicated cycle. Now the mean old witch did show a day or two later then norm and no pregnancy resulted from this cycle but ovulation did and that is one step closer to my goal. I am continuing with it again this cycle to see if I ovulate again.
FertileCM for Women "is a balanced dietary supplement to promote the healthy production of fertile cervical mucus – the bodily fluid central to fertility and conception. The ingredients in FertileCM have also been shown to support female arousal and sexual sensitivity and strengthen the uterine lining, both of which can increase chances for successful conception."
Now I can't say anything about extra sexual arousal as stress, life, my children, work, everything kind of played a part in putting out that fire for a while, but I can say it helped tremendously with CM. I have to say it was very comparable to my first Clomid cycle, which Clomid had the opposite side effect on me that it claims, decreased CM. I did have a hard time though with the timing of the 3 capsules you are supposed to spread out throughout your day. I was constantly forgetting a lunch time dose, or morning one when things got hectic. So I decided since I was already taking the FertilAid in the morning, I took all 3 of my capsules of FertileCM with it as well. I'm not sure if my results would have been any different, but I had great ones to begin with, so I'm not complaining or changing a thing.

Whew, almost done, hang in there I swear a giveaway is coming up soon. Bend, Breath, Conceive Fertility Yoga. "Bend, Breathe & Conceive is a yoga practice
specifically created to help couples conceive. Anna Davis, PhD, RYT, scientist
and yoga instructor, guides you through a series of physical poses, yogic breathing
techniques, visualizations and meditation practices designed to integrate mind,
body and spirit to cultivate balance. This connection acts as an antidote to
stress and promotes fertility and optimal reproductive health."
Let me start by saying I love Yoga, Pilates, meditating, and essentially any form of relaxation. This one seems to combine a little bit of all. Something I did enjoy was the information in the beginning of the dvd on how stress affects hormones, like the scientific of it all, and how breathing exercises and yoga play a part in helping hormones balance. (I am all about the WHY/HOW the body works so this was right up my alley) Overall this yoga routine seemed very familiar to me but was enjoyable. It did incorporate basic yoga moves, downward facing dog, child's pose, warrior poses, etc but did have some lying, breathing, relaxation moments as well. I did find it to be a bit long, (an hour) as finding an hour of quiet time to relax and quiet the mind was proving to be challenging.
Finally, what you have been waiting for. If you made it this far, congrats, here's your chance to win this lovely package.

ReplyDeleteI have been on the fence about purchasing Fertile CM for awhile, this is the second positive review I've read in the last couple of weeks. If this tww doesn't provide a positive result, I think I might put an order in. Thanks for the informative review.
ReplyDeleteI used fertilaid to regulate my cycle after birth control and got pregnant my first cycle on it!
ReplyDeleteI would be interested in the DVD and fertilaid
ReplyDeleteI would be interested in it all, especially the fertiltea (never had much issues with spotting so it likely won't make me spot), fertilaid & DVD...if I won I'd use the fertilCM but it's not really something I need. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to try the yoga.

ReplyDeleteI would like to try fertilaid for men and women. Thanks mcparker9@comcast.net

ReplyDeleteI've just ordered the FertilCM so I would be interested in FertilAid. TTC is hard! I'm 44 and fighting a ticking clock with my body and my husband only wants to try until May 2013. Currently been doing the Clomid for 4 months. No results yet.
ReplyDeleteWe are really interested in trying Fertiliaid for Women and Fertiliaid for Men. We are not big tea drinkers but it would be easy to squeeze supplements in with our other daily multivitamins.
ReplyDeleteWe are already proud owners of the OvaCue!! So for us we will be able to see my fertility strengthening! I heard so many wonderful success stories from using FertilAid on bloggs and in online forums (Me included for cycle regulation after many many months of MIA cycles). I can't wait to start our TTC journey Fertiliaid in tow!
This giveaway is awesome!
I've been ttc for almost a yr now and started taking fertilaid about two months ago and since then it helped regulate my cycles to 21 days,unlike before it be 21 one month then 42 the next. I ovulated for the first time in 10months last cycle but no positive test. I'm having problems with my CM so I'd love to give fertilcm a try. Each month everything gets more expensive trying to find a way to get pregnant. Something that should come naturally to every woman but has become hard. I'm turning 22 in a few weeks and shouldn't have this much difficulty, no woman should. I pray that we all will get that positive testand enjoy that happy moment. Baby dust to all.
ReplyDeleteAny of them...!
ReplyDeletei would love to try the FertiliTea and Bend, Breathe, Conceive Fertility Yoga dvd !!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Friend
ReplyDeleteI am glad to read your blog .It’s helpful to Increase Sperm Motility .this post focus on those who have diagnostic with low sperm motility. I am always suggest MotilityBoost for Men to Increase Sperm Motility.
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteI've been researching about infertility because my husband and I, we have been unprotected since 2007 and haven't conceived yet. We are kinda frustrated with me not getting pregnant so after he went back from Qatar we got married feb. and tried for a baby. I think it was 2nd wk of August 2012 he had his semen tested and it was quite low in sperm count and motility he only got 40% motile and 60% non-motile which is really not good and i think his kinda on the borderline for his sperm count becoz he only has 40million it is quite acceptable but accdg. to the articles i have read on the web it should be at least 43million kinda like that. so, yea i also went to an OB-GYN and had me tested and she said that i mitght have PCOS becoz of just few hair on the lower part of my abdomen (like 3 pcs LOL) and thin really small hair on my breast so she concluded that i "might" have PCOS she requested that i have a trans-V ultrasound but I decided not to get one becoz i know that the work up could be expensive and so i just checked on the net and found posts reagrding fertilaid. So after 4mos. of thinking whether to buy or not we decided to go ahead and try fertilaid so we bought FA for women FertilCM and Fertilaod for men.. so today is our 2nd day not much changes maybe becoz i just started but I just hope that it would help us get a baby.. I'll update you guys for any changes and I just am happy that I can read a lot of positive things about fertilaid coz its giving me hope to get my BFP soon :)

I think that everything wrote made a bunch of sense. However, what about this?
ReplyDeletewhat if you added a little information? I am not
suggesting your information isn't good, however suppose you added a headline that makes people want more? I mean "FertiliTea, FertilAid, FertileCM and Fertility Yoga Review & Giveaway" is a little vanilla. You might look at Yahoo's
front page and see how they create article headlines to get
viewers to click. You might add a video or a
picture or two to grab people excited about what you've written. Just my opinion, it could make your posts a little bit more interesting.
