    Vag potions?

    What are "vag potions"? That's like, Replense and stuff, right?
    Should I be thinking of adding something like this to my sway?
    DH and I TTC 4 months with BFN, used PreSeed and got DS. We don't use lubes or anything normally (don't need them).
    Maybe I'm superstitious, but I believe PreSeed is a big factor in why we got DS. (I'm staying the hell away from it this time!)
    Should I think of something similar to TTC pink?
    DS - 2012

    A lot of us are dropping the vag potions in favor of focusing on diet, exercise, fiber, and one attempt. I'm sure the vag potions sway, but not overly hard.

    I saw a lot of women on IG using aci-jel, and thought this was a big pink sway. But then I saw how low the conception rates were for it, and realized my will to be strict on LE and exercise would waver if it dragged on for months and months. I opted for faster conception over using every possible pink tactic, and it looks like that might be a better plan. So my aci-jel that I worked SUPER hard to get a hold of just sits in my bathroom sink drawer unused except for a couple of times I needed it to ward off a yeast infection.

    Agree completely with Lilith. Better to be strict on the diet/exercise and conceive swiftly vs relying on gels.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    All the jellies have really gotten disappointing results (lower odds of pg by a lot and getting about same results with and without them) so I am fine with you guys leaving them out. Most people want to feel like they've done and tried everything, and since they appear neutral to me, I'm ok with using/not using as each individual prefers.

    My recommendation would be TTC au natural without the Preseed.

    I suspect in people doing nothing else to sway, they do sway a little bit, but it gets swallowed up in the overall sway as a whole.

    Also agree that it makes no difference if a sway tactic gets 90% success rate, if only 10% of people can get pg while using it, it's of no benefit to everyone else and I find that the longer people go on swaying, the more inclined they are to say "eh screw it" and end up dropping everything all at once only to conceive a boy.
