Natural Fertility Treatment Vs Medical Fertility Treatment Which Is Most Succesful? Want To Conceive Fast!!?
I’m 24, been on the pill for around +-8 years. Stopped pill in May which was when I had last period. No period since then. Went to OBGYN everything is perfect except when I went for blood test. Thryoid problem. Hormone TSH is too high.
Took eltroxin for 6 weeks made hormones too low. No medication for a month and then back to the doctor. If no period or hormones have not settled he wants to send me to a fertility specialist. who will probably put me on clomid and if that doesn’t work then onto IVF. the Fertility specialist sounds good.
I also heard of another doctor that specialieses in natural fertility treatment as in homeopathy, acupuncture, chiro etc. I phoned them and they said I should see them first before doing clomid. Now I don’t know what to do. I really want a healthy baby FAST so I’m not sure which way will give me the best results. I’ve currently had 2 acupuncture treatments, taking folic acid and trying to improve diet and excerise. Also taking chinese meds my acupunturist gave me.
Has anyone experienced both type of treatments and which was more successful? Which one made you get pregant faster. You can go to http://www.fertiboost.com/home.asp and tell me if you think it’s any good!!! Thanks so much!!

This is probably not what you’re looking for- but I don’t think there is any way to know what is or is not going to work for you. Even when the doctors know what is causing the ferility problem, they are not 100% in making women get pregnant. Same for the natural treatments- they can treat you, but there’s no way to know if what they do is going to work.
I recently did a stint with Clomid- on my third cycle I had two good follicles that released. We did IUI, and my husbands sample was fantastic. And I still didn’t get pregnant. It should have worked, but it didn’t. So now we’re back to the drawing board.
The point that I am making is this- choose the therapy that you feel is right for you, and know that there is no way to get pregnant “fast”- you might get lucky and do it in one month, or you might wait longer, and in many respects, there’s no way to control it.
Going to the OBGYN and getting on medicine/IVF is going to be MUCH faster than trying a natural treatment – which usually include long term life style changes to diet and exercise. Be leary of those foreign meds, some are not FDA approved. Make sure that they are safe to take during pregnancy (since you’ll hopefully get pregnant while taking them)
