Hi ladies. I really need some advice as a lot of the forums pertain to diet but a lot pertain to sex as well. I am freezing embryos and wondering if the diet advice only applies if you are carrying. I also have to use a surrogate. I'm dreaming of a little girl and I'm quite worried that my diet is more alkaline. What's confusing is when you read regular articles on diet and fertility it tells you to have things like avocados, royal jelly, wheatgrass, and other greens. I have been consuming a lot of this. My first 2 rounds produced boy embryos and I am trying one last round. I'm confused if the diet rules apply only if you're carrying because I know just read an article that says the foods are connected to follicular fluids. So if I am doing IVF, will having the acidic foods still work and help draw the x sperm? I am about 8 days from getting my period to start the cycle and again I am quite worried because it sounds like all the foods I've been consuming would sway a boy.

Swaying is for natural conceptions only. You can't do the girl diet if you are doing IVF. Sorry you didn't get any XX embryos last cycle. That must have been hard. Probably just bad bad luck. Hope this is your lucky cycle!

There is a diet that atomic recommends for pcos that also contains guidance for people going HT. The girl sway diet does not contain enough nutrients for HT

You CANNOT do a sway diet if going HT. Especially not that awful "acidic" diet which is going to be terrible for your health and doesn't work anyway. For HT, you need max amounts of the best eggs you can get and swaying pink is all about the opposite of that.
I do have a compromise diet in this thread about 5 from the top that you can tweak if you're going HT, instructions on how to do that are in the thread.

Some people give their hubbies Olive Leaf Extract and Vit. C - are you doing that??? May make for more XX. FX and pink dust headed your way.
