Cranberry juice???

[aaronpaul]

Okay so I think I have been taking to much cranberry....my last cycle was 9 days long and its usually only 5! Would it be okay if I drank a couple cups of regular cranberry juice a day instead of the pills? I know the pills are better, but I just feel I need to cut down on the cranberry

Cranberry is potentially dangerous and not something that is used for swaying on this site anymore. I know you are supposed to "taper off" cranberry, perhaps atomic or someone will chime in on how to do this. Cranberry is a blood thinner and taking the pills likely won't help your sway and could cause you harm.

Yes that is DEF. caused by cranberry and we used to see that all the time on IG>

Our stats showed that cranberry wasn't even doing anything for DW anyway - equal results to the overall success rates of the site and the way that people take it isn't safe anyway. http://genderdreaming.com/forum/ttc-a-girl-best-practices/7086-how-lower-ph-via-supps-cran-baby-aspirin-aspartame-other-techniques.html

I would just have you cease the cran (and if you're actively taking it now PLEASE wean off rather than stopping cold turkey) and not replace with juice. The juice is too dilute to even help with swaying anyway and you are just getting a big bunch of nutrients that may sway blue without conferring any benefits to your sway.
