Dr. B suggested the same to me, however I can not swallow pills so I needed the liquid version fish oil.

Try this site - this is where I get the rest of my supplements. And if you have any questions, just e-mail the owner (Dr. Myatt) she returns e-mails rather quickly.

Good luck!

Re: Omega 3

personally i'm a strong believer in taking an omega 369. I take Nordic Naturals brand. I got PG once on my own but that ended in a m/c. The IUI that worked to get DD is the cycle I added 369 and then this past summer DH and I got PG on our first try on our own while I was taking the 369. Just a thought.

Here are the potential benefits of Omegas:

Omega 3 benefits

- Extra Brain Power and Cognitive Ability.
- Fewer Tantrums.
- Reduce the symptoms of ADHD in kids.
- Prevent Alzheimer’s.
- Control the effects of Asthma.

Re: Omega 3

Good luck! I found out about it from another message board, where a woman's dietician told her to take it to help with her fertility issues as well as for general health.
