  • Danielle #1) I’m on day 8 of my cycle. I started taking birth control on day 2 of my cycle to prepare for my first IVF treatment and scheduled to keep taking it until Monday of next week (day 14). My egg retrieval is scheduled tentatively for Nov 4th (day 28). Currently I’m doing protocol for phase 2 of my cycle. Double checking – when should I change to phase 3 and phase 4?
  • Emma I have a blocked fallopian tube (not hydrosalpinx) and uterine polyps. Are there any protocols that can assist with either of those issues? I’ve been told the uterine polyps can be caused by an excess of estrogen but the fallopian tube blockage could be from inflammation. Thank you!
  • Toni 1) I am trying to do acupressure morning and night but at work this is often tricky as my break is as and when possible, meaning sometimes the two periods of acupressure are close together. Is there a minimum recommended amount of hours apart for optimal treatment effectiveness?  2) I have found liver 3 and kidney 3 pressure points particularly tender but have been applying moderate pressure. Is this OK? Can I do harm by applying pressure to the point of being painful? Will the tenderness ease off in time?
  • Ashley 1. I finally got a period in Sept which was awesome but I was traveling in October and did not get a period despite trying to do the acupuncture & castor oil packs on liver while traveling. What phase should I be on to get my period again? Do I start over for Phase One even if I was ovulating? How do I know if I’m ovulating? I use the Premom app but it’s reading all over the place. I haven’t started the BBT monitoring. Would that be more accurate?
