Ive devised 2 sway plans for myself- can't decide which to do! Which would you do?

I'm 28... and dh is only a nipper at 25, think his super sperm need taking down a few pegs with the LR ;)

Now I'm wondering which would sway harder, the BCP or vitex+SP? would 4 months on yasmin be long enough to lower T levels?

option one

do not do antihistamine or jelly with Clomid. some people choose to do them the first month, but I do not recommend this if you are coming off the BCP. will lower odds of conception too far.

we don't know what the stats on BCP will end up being but the stats with vitex and saw palmetto have been underwhelming. I do believe they sway (and people need to keep in mind that we are seeing higher than 80% results with the boy swayers so even something that looks like it is 50-50 in the stats, is probably swaying a fair bit among those of us who are predisposed to boys to begin with - if you start off 80% likely to have a boy and end up 55% likely to get a girl, that's still a great sway).

so, in the here and now I am thinking the BCP are going to be better. I don't KNOW this and I could very well be wrong.

PS - I do not believe the reason why BCP sway is because of testosterone. I believe it is because of the effects of the BCP on the cervical crypts that produce EWCM.

you can always find someone who did every sway tactic under the sun and still managed to conceive in spite of that. But the average person is going to find it very difficult to conceive coming off BCP and onto Clomid if they are using antihistamine and jelly. If people do so many sway tactics that they cannot conceive, it is pointless to even TTC and they may as well stay on the BCP.
