Q: Can I take my other supplements while I am on the Fertility Cleanse?

A: While on the Fertility Cleanse it is best to not take additional herbs or supplements unless they are your multivitamin, omega 3, or medications that you must take.

Q: If I don’t have a period, when should I start my Fertility Cleanse?

A: If you do not have a period due to PCOS or other reasons you would then choose your own start date.

Q: When is the best time of day to take my Fertility Cleanse products? Do I need to take them with food?

A: I think the Fertility Cleanse Products are best taken at two different times of the day. In the morning and in the evening. It is not necessary to take them with food, but you can take them with a meal if you like.

Q: What type of foods should I eat during the Fertility Cleanse?

A: During the Fertility Cleanse it would be a good idea to begin your transition towards a fertility friendly diet. There are many resources on this site that will help you do just this:

Q: Is meat ok to eat while on the Fertility Cleanse?

A: One thing that is unique about the Fertility Cleanse is that I created it to be a gentle cleanse that could be easily adapted to your lifestyle. The dietary suggestions while on the cleanse are not typically dramatic as many cleanses are. The focus of the Fertility Cleanse is to help your liver and uterus cleanse themselves and prepare the body for conception. This is a time of building nourishment and a healthy body without having to cut out major food groups. That being said I do think it would be beneficial to cut back on animal proteins to 4oz per serving (especially if you are experiencing endometriosis or PCOS) and make sure they are organic or/and free range/grass fed.

Q: Are there any side effects that I should be aware of while I am on the Fertility Cleanse?

A: I get asked this question quite a bit and have a couple of things to say. The first is to bring to light that the herbs in the Fertility Cleanse are whole herbs, which means they are not isolated or in any way similar to medications. There are some signs of cleansing that may show up such as moodiness from the cleansing effect on the liver and clots or tissues in the menstrual cycle following the cleanse that would come from the cleansing action of the cleanse (this is normal and healthy, you want this stuff to come out). If you follow the Fertility Cleanse instructions and drink plenty of water you should feel really good.

Q: When is the best time to try to conceive while I am on the Fertility Cleanse?

A: I recommend that while on the Fertility Cleanse you take a month off from trying to conceive. The reason for this is the herbs in the cleanse are not meant to be taken while trying to conceive. The actions of these herbs are to cleanse and clear out the body. The cycle following the cleanse would be fine to start trying to conceive again.

Q: Can I do the castor oil pack after the cleanse also?

A: Yes, the therapeutic castor oil packs can be done at any time as long as you are not menstruating or think you may be pregnant.

Q: I am doing the Fertility Cleanse and using the Improve Egg Health Kit. How should I take these products? Can I take both kits at the same time?

A: The Fertility Cleanse should be done first. Once the cleanse is complete then you would start on your next program, which in this case is the Improve Egg Health Kit. Your program would look like this:

Month 1: Fertility Cleanse

Month 2+: Improve Egg Health Kit

Is it safe to take THe Fertility Cleanse if you are taking medication?

I'm a little nervous about ordering herbs online because of the horror stories I've heard. Are the herbs in the Fertility Cleanse completely safe?

Iam going for IVF very soon, how long before my IVF treatment should I do the Fertility cleanse and will it effect the results of IVF if I do the IVF immediately after the Fertility cleanse!

It depends on the medications and the reasons you are taking the medication. It would be best to talk to your doctor about it just to make sure.

I can understand being concerned with ordering products online, being an herbalist and very passionate about what we do here it is very important to us to have safe and natural herbs available to our customers. All of the products that we carry follow the FDA's manufacturing practices for nutritional supplements and guidelines.

We also use whole herbs in the Fertility Cleanse which means they are more like food then medications.

It is best to complete the Fertility Cleanse (or any other herbal therapy) before you begin any of your hormonal fertility medications. We do not know if the herbs will interfere with the medication, so it is best to prepare ahead of time.

Hi Hethir, i have just reveived my cleanse kit today and it's my day 9 after my period, can I start the cleanse programe or should I wait for my next period? the reason I am asking is because it takes 30 days and I am planing to go vacation after 30 day and I want to do in my home, please let me know if i can start on day 10 after period,
and i have another quetion, when can i start the other like maca, Largining.......? is it after the 30 day cleanse programe?

thank you very much for your help,

Tasnime,

Hi tasnime,

Yes you could begin the cleanse on your day ten. It is designed to go along with your cycle so your next period will help to cleanse the detoxed toxins from your body and to keep you on a schedule that is easy to follow. Depending on how long your cycle is you will be doing the Liver Cleanse part first, prob. up to your period, don't take anything while you are on your period, finish the cleanse when you are done bleeding.

Begin the Maca and L-arginine the day after the cleanse is over.

Have a great vacation,

Dalene

Hi! I am new here. I received today my fertility preparation kit but I am thinking of doing the cleanse as well . Can I do them at the same time? Or I have to finish the cleanse first? I will be 39 next week so I am obviously pressed for time . Also can you give me some advice? My RE asked me to take DHEA to improve egg quality. Is this something I can take at the same time with the preparation kit? Please let me know if it would be safe to do so. Thank you very much,
