    How long for DH to take supplements?

    My DH is not super excited about the whole "swaying" plan I have haha so Im trying to make things as simple as possible for him. I want him to take cranberry and LR and was wondering how long in advance he should take these before ttc to get a good sway? Thank you for help!! =)

    It takes about 2 1/2 months (72 days) for sperm to be produced so at least that long for you to be getting the new sperm his supplements have had an effect on. I would start him 3 months before an attempt.

    Atomic just said today to not have DH be on LR any longer than two weeks at a time. Now I am confused! =(

    Maybe have him on LR for two weeks...3 months before an attempt? You don't see those sperm for 72 days.

    Don't let DH take LR for longer than 2 weeks at a time! It's hard on his body to do it for longer than 2 weeks. So what happens is, you have him start LR when you get AF and have him take LR for 2 weeks. Then he stops the LR until you get AF again, and then he takes LR for another two week and stops again until AF comes back. Make sense?

    ok, thanks! Oh, and do you know in what way it is 'hard on his body''? like, sperm production -wise or just general health. . . . just wondered

    and do you think it is good to be on it for several cycles with dw or does it not really matter?
