help about supplements

[Five Beautiful Girls]

Hi Ladies, Can you please tell me when taking Flaxseed oil,fish oil & Evening primrose oil that the three of these shouldn't be taken together because it will delay your ovulation , so when should you start? I took all three at the same time not knowing that this would happen until reading on here in an older posted from years ago , still waiting to ovulate (10days late) should I only take one out of the three ? or two out of the three? so I have stopped all of them ,should I wait until next period is over then start them up again ? Next question? with L-arginine what one should I buy? I google it & there is so many different ones Please Help .......

:DD: :DD: :DD::DD::DD: swaying for :DS:

hopefully Atomic will comment, but I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be taking flaxseed with L-arginine and EPO. Those things do tend to delay O for most people. I would do fish oil with the EPO or fish oil with L-arginine, pick one combo or the other. EPO dried me up and delayed O for me which is why I switched to Fertile CM which has L-arginine in it and that worked for me. Some ladies say the L-arginine has dried them up which is why they take EPO you have to find what works best for you. The EPO can be taken AF to a couple days before you O, you don't have to take it all cycle. Most women that sway for blue now just basically take Fish oil, folic acid and a prenantal and thats it.

Moved to correct forum.

As Dloui said, some of the oils and l'arg have shown to dry cm in some ladies, I think the flacseed was affecting me last time around, still managed a succesful bfp though so dont obsess about level of cm especially if your nutrition and regular light muscle building are going well:) The only oil that gets consistently good reviews is the fish oil:agree: This time I used it along side coconut oil, I still got a 2nd succesful blue bfp despite little cm due to f/t breastfeeding:) So fish oil is top of the list and then possibly experiment if you feel the need:)

Thank You nuthinputpink, wasn't sure which forum to asks my questions, so now I know where to go:happy:

dloui123, Thanks for your help I haven't brought any L-arginine yet but I was going to , so now after reading your post don't think I will, I will go with FertileCM , Yes not only did it delay O but also dried me up too. So I will go with FertileCM,fish oil,folic acid & prenatal. Did you take anything to raises your testrone & if so what? with fish oil do you only take 1000mcg or do you take it three times a day? I appreciate your feed back , Thanks.

Thank You ELP, I am grateful for your feed back :happy: What is Coconut oil ? Is it a supplement in capsule form or liquid you pour into a drink? Sorry never heard of it before.

I stopped flaxseed and started using a triple strength fish oil and I really like it.

I took 1000mg of fish oil once a day, but I believe you can take it up to 3x's per day. I took Vit D3 1000mcg which I highly reccommend for a boy sway. I took fish oil, prenatal, folic acid, D3, CoQ10, B6 to lengthen my LP, and royal jelly. You should be doing some form of weight training 2-3x's per week and that will increase your T levels

Thanks dloui 128, Do I take one of everything you listed or what it says on the bottle to take each day ? Sorry ......Just don't want to get it wrong, Thanks for your reply.

I took 1 of each except for the fertile cm I took 3x's per day, I don't remember all the mg's so hopefully atomic can chime in. The only ones I am sure about is the fish oil I took 1 pill 1000mg and the vit d3 1 pill 1000mg

[atomic sagebrush]

??? you can take them together at the same time of day, if you can find that thread again I would be happy to take a look at it and explain or correct it.

What you SHOULDN'T do is be taking both flaxseed and EPO. They perform the same function, you don't need them both, and it's VERY important that you are getting at least the same if not more, of Omega 3 fatty acids found in fish oil. It is bad for your health and quite probably your sway, to get a higher dose of Omega 6's (found in EPO and flax), than Omega 3. So you need to be sure you're getting more Fish oil and stick with just one or the other EPO or flax (I think EPO is better, the only people who should take flax are those who EPO has not worked for.)

Please start taking the fish oil again right away. These supps are blood thinners and it is risky to suddenly stop all blood thinners - it can cause your blood to clot too easily and could cause blood clots in your legs or even heart attack or stroke in rare instances. Wean off fish oil gradually.

Take the EPO or flaxseed the first 12-14 days of your cycle only. The EPO/flax is what delays O for most people and by stopping it earlier in your cycle, it can help prevent delays in ov.

I personally don't think the l-arg is a good idea for you. It will be like throwing fire on a flame; if you have delayed ov. to begin with, l-arg is the WORST for delaying ovulation and will only make it worse. Plus, we have seen mixed results with l-arg and CM - some people did get more CM when taking it but others, it dried up their CM all together.

Tell me more about what you are doing and taking? Are you doing diet? Any history of PCOS?

I just took 1

[ELP]

I was taking 2 1200mg fish oils a day plus 2 1000mg coconut oils a day, I ended up with thick congestion on my chest and wheezing and was 1000% convinced I had some how developed asthma due to DHs smoke breath, I even went to the Dr for tests. Then I saw a warning on here about something, too much fish oil??? and cut back and all the congestion and wheezing went with it, so I would def say just take 1 a day:) And if you notice any side effects then look again at what your taking:agree:

And my coconut oils was in gel capsule form:) It is god in alot of alpha linolic acids?? which are healthy, but if you hunt down my 2nd sway I became a bit of a supp freak lol!!

Hi atomic, You wouldn't believe how many time I have tried to reply to this & lost it all every time,
Anyway here I go again
Only talking BlackMores PP85 which is potassium minerals tablets I have been taking them for 3years or so,Folic Acid, wasn't really sure what to take I was going start taking the list that dloui 128 suggested, What do you think ? I was taking the flaxseed oil,EPO & fish oil for about a week then stopped like I said before, I was due to O on the 2nd & am still waiting todays the 16th.
diet- I have been eating, cereal every morning with bee pollen on top, red meat everyday,tomato,dried apricots,Ice burg lettuce,potatoes,raisins,baby carrots,broccoli, sweet potato & almonds, What other nuts do you suggested? salt on everything also.
eggs & mushrooms Is that ok to have? & porridge(oats) What do you think of my over all choice of food? anything on there I shouldn't eat that would sway pink?
I have always had lemon water everyday for years first thing in the morning but have had it with warm water does it make a difference if it's cold water or warm?
I jog in the mornings 6km & then two hours later go to the gym, I see before you have said to have a break between cardio & weights ,Is 2hrs enough of a break? Are you able to do cardio for a blue sway? Because I will do what ever I need to for my sway.
