Natural cycle --what should I take?

I've been waiting for AF so I could get my CD3 blood done and start on BCP for an IVF cycle with Dr. Braverman. Of course, she decides to be late, for the first time in 2 years. On Friday Dr. B did a sono and blood work and he saw a good-sized follicle. And I find out today that we happened to catch the LH surge as well. We timed intercourse perfectly this weekend, too.

Obviously it's a stretch to think it would work in this "off month". But I figure why not try to do what I can to help it along. What should I do (ie) --baby aspirin, progesterone supps? If we do it for IVF cycles, why not for a natural one? I didn't think of asking Dr. Braverman, but was curious about what you guys would do.

I would give Dr. B a call and see what he thinks..but the baby aspirin couldn't hurt.

Re: Natural cycle --what should I take?

Maybe ask him for a CD 21 Progesterone test, and take it from there. I have no clue about baby asprin...never took it!
GL this cycle!!

Re: Natural cycle --what should I take?

baby asprin certainly wouldn't hurt. He said we should all really take it anyway- it's good for heart health.

Re: Natural cycle --what should I take?

I would take baby asprin and vitamin B complex

Re: Natural cycle --what should I take?

I would think baby aspirin can't hurt. I'd email Dr. Braverman and ask him if you can come in for a progesterone check to see if you should be on progesterone supps... or if there's anything else you should or could do. for a miracle!
