A year and six months later...

A year and six months later. Wow, it's been a long time. Truth is that I decided I had to give myself a break, some kind of a break. I was starting to drive myself crazy a little bit. Still no pregnancy, but we are far from giving up. I've decided that I'm ready to get back into the swing of things. (Not that ttc was ever off of my mind!) I've recently been diagnosed with low thyroid function- which (is this weird?) I am VERY excited to find out about! My chiropractor has suggested a load of natural supplements to help my thyroid function. He is very very excited about my diagnosis and is confident that we can turn this right away with the treatment plan that he's come up with. He's predicting a pregnancy in three months! Or, at very least, my bbt will go up significantly! So...this is what I'm taking every day, my new all natural approach to health and fertility:

Products by Biotics:
Cytozyme-AD (which contains bovine adrenal complex)
Cytozyme-PT/HPT (lamb pituitary/hypothalamus complex)
GTA-Forte (zinc, selenium, copper)
Bio-Glycozyme Forte (a powerful multi-vitamin)
Iodizyme (iodine in small amounts to detox liver)
Beta-TCP (to help liver function, help with insulin resistance)
Hydo-Zyme (digestive enzyme)

CoQ10
Omega fish oil
Vitamin D

1-2 pitchers of organic green tea/raspberry leaf tea per week
spoonful of virgin coconut oil (which is extremely beneficial in many ways!)
fresh vegetable juice almost every day (as much as I can!)

I am hoping to connect with other women with thyroid issues so that we can swap ideas, stories, inspire each other, all of that really important stuff!!

Not sure if anyone still reads these posts! Hope everyone's healthy happy and well! :)
