Research Natural Supplements

Cassava Roo
Step 1: Research Natural Supplements

(There are many, these are just a few common ones)
  • Vitex - Suppose to help regulate irregular cycles.
  • Soy Isoflavones - Suppose to be similar to the fertility drug, clomid. Taken to help ovulation and possibly helps lengthen short luteal phases. May help women suffering from PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome).
  • Cassava Root - Suppose to increases fertility and chance for multiples.
My husband and I just wanted me to be able to get pregnant for a 3rd time and to have a healthy pregnancy, but twins would be a nice bonus if that happened too. The natural supplement I wanted to try was Cassava Root. Before I could take this supplement, I needed a professional opinion since I was planning on taking it while breastfeeding my second child along with taking Vitamin B6 and pre-natal vitamins. I wanted to make sure it was safe to take while breastfeeding and the two supplements  and my pre-natal vitamins wouldn't cancel each other, because they might have some of the same ingredients. From my online research it seems Cassava Root is suppose to be considered safe to take while breastfeeding and does not have any drug interactions with other drugs according to the supplement's website: www.cassanovum.com. However, like most natural supplements, there can be contradicting advice online and not enough information or studies done in the United States to prove their effectiveness and safety.

Frida Mom for Post Laparoscopy Care

  My Frida Mom Basket for Post-Laparoscopy Care. Why I Love the Frida Mom Line (Even Beyond Motherhood) One of the things I’ve really come to appreciate is how versatile the Frida Mom line is—not just for new moms, but for anyone recovering from abdominal surgeries, such as laparoscopies for endometriosis. After surgery, comfort and gentle care are everything. That’s where the C-section recovery underwear comes in. Even if you haven’t had a baby, the design makes sense—when you have incisions on your abdomen, you need something soft, high-waisted, and non-restrictive. These disposable underwears are a lifesaver compared to standard disposable Depends. The big difference? You can build your own pad system . Start with the underwear. Add a menstrual pad. Layer on a witch hazel perineal liner, perineal cream, or both. Attach an optional heating pad for cramping. It’s completely customizable depending on what your body needs that day. I also want to mention the liners pack...

I am not being paid to promote any of them and do not receive payments. Skin sensitivity may impact your experiences with these products. Recovering from my laparoscopy has been a journey, and honestly, some days are more uncomfortable than others. Over the past week, I’ve found a few products that have made a huge difference in how I feel—both physically and mentally. Here’s what’s been helping me get through it: 1. Body Wash That Feels Safe Before and after surgery, I wanted something gentle that still felt clean. I’ve been using Dove Antibacterial Body Wash , and it’s been perfect.

Underwear That Actually Works I never thought I’d get excited about disposable underwear, but Frida Mom Disposable C-Section Underwear has been a game-changer. They’re soft, supportive, and don’t press on my stomach—exactly what ...
