I agree with the natural approach.

You might want to research Dr. Randine Lewis and her "Fertile Soul" books and retreats (also www.thefertilesoul.com  

My daughter who is an acupunturist in California told me about her, as she has applied to to intern at one of the  retreats.  Dr. Lewis has had very good success with infertile couples using Chinese medicine techniques and holistic or mind/body approaches.

Maybe this would be something to look into for a future show--

Several years ago I did the low carb diet thing. A close friend of mine that has PCOS went on the diet to quickly drop a few pounds. Interestingly during this time, she began having regular periods. This was without taking hormones which she had previously done to have periods.

Eating meats and low carb fruits and veggies doesn't cost an arm or a leg. It seems more natural than getting hormone injections. I worry about the long term effects for women taking fertility treatments.

 

I wish all the couples the best of  love, health and happiness.
