Since we are trying to conceive I thought I would share this.... Nolan and I LOVE pineapple so we will definitely be trying this
Using Pineapple to Assist Implantation:
Pineapple contains bromelain. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks up proteins that inhibit embryo implantation. Consuming a whole pineapple (focusing on the core as it has the highest concentration of Bromelain) during a fertility cycle can be beneficial.
For IVF cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day of your embryo transfer.
IUI cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day of your IUI.
Timed intercourse cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day after ovulation.
Note: Be careful not to start consuming pineapple too early in the cycle. Beginning to consume pineapple BEFORE the recommended days above can actually affect your vaginal and cervical mucus PH, making it more acidic.

ReplyDeleteSo, are you trying to conceive for surrogacy or to multiply the Hartzell clan?

ReplyDeleteThe core tastes the same its just really hard to chew.... like a rock lol.
I'm going to have to try this. My IP is 43 so they are worried about the advanced age of her eggs. I want to do everything that I can to help ensure the success and health of the baby.
