I have suffered from painful ovulation and also irregular periods and many misscarriages. I monthly chart and know what's been going on for years in my cycle. I have been taking ACV for a little over a week, and for the first time, my ovulatory pain was walkable and only an hour. . .as opposed to a day in bed. Plus, it was less than 1 week after my period, instead of 2 weeks plus. This is crazy! I also have taken molasses for period pain, but not for long and then I ran out after less than a week. I may have found it helped with my infertility as well, but I figured I needed to heal from my last misscarriage before attempting again. We will see next month, and what my next period will be like (usually another day in bed). . .will keep you posted.Replied By Joyce (Joelton, Tn) on 08/19/2008
To Angela from Tonasket: For all those menstrual problems, have you considered that you (like many of us) might be running low on magnesium. Dr. Mark Sircus has written an excellent article (available on line) "Transdermal Magnesium" on what magnesium does in our bodies. He states that research shows that in cavemen days the ration of calcium to magnesium was 5:1, but now it is more like l5:l which makes it highly unlikely that any of us are getting his recommended l000 mgms. per day needed to just keep up with the demands of our bodies. Another good way to apply his transdermal magnesium is buying a 2 lb. box of it at the dollalr stores and putting abut a pound of it in your bath and take a good, relaxing bath.Replied By Faith (St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands) on 09/09/2008
I must say when I heard about Apple Cider Vinegar I was curious. I went out the same day and purchased a bottle. I'm a type 2 diabetic and I must say that I feel a lot better since taking it, my monthly cycle has changed to a more normal cyle. It used to be very heavy the first two days...no more.
I also started the pulling oil...that too is great. My mouth feels so clean all day. Just started it so I haven't really seen anything major, but I will report back. Thanks Earthclinic.

Hi, i would like to know how to take the ACV for menstrual and fertility purposes. can you tell me the correct dosage to take on a daily basis?
Thanks.Replied By Rin (London, UK) on 04/29/2009
Reply for Tracey: I put my Daughter on ACV to help with her PCO. The first thing that she noticed was for the first time since her Periods started they were regular and she would start on the exact day she was due. She takes 2 tablespoons in 6 oz of water or orange juice twice a day, once before breakfast and once before her evening meal. I would have liked her to take it 3 times a day but its diffucult with the job that she does to do the lunchtime one.Replied By Tracey (Helsinki, Finland) on 04/30/2009

Answer to Vinnie in Canada: Raw Apple Cider vinegar. Raw is the key and in the US, _____s is the easiest brand to find and usually in a health food store for sure. If you can't find any, ask the retailer to find and stock raw apple cider vinegar(they usually will) or google _____s vinegar and you should be able to order from them. 1-2 T vinegar with 1/4-1/2 t. Bicarbonate of soda/baking soda in 4 oz. Water. Put it in a tall glass because it fizzes. Once it settles down, drink 2-3 times a day. It tastes like light beer to me.......... LOL just think beer, it makes it seem good. I like it anyway :) Hope you can obtain it. The benefits are legion!!Replied By Jecca (Hollywood, Fl) on 06/10/2011
I am new to this site and very impressed with all of the different comments from everyone. I have been trying to conceive and have not been successful due to uterine fibroids. Could ACV possibly help me to get pregnant even though I have the fibroids? Does anyone know?Replied By Hello26 (Tampa, Fl) on 05/21/2012
Hi there!!! I'm 23 and was diagnosed with PCOS at 16. The dr said I was going to have problems getting pregnant. Well, here I am, married to a wonderful man and have gone thru 3 fertilitily treatments already and an emotional roller coaster... We want to start a healthy family yet I do not mentruate at all unless on progesterone or birth control pills. I have always been interested in the holistic approach to fertility yet I thought it would happen faster if I turned for help from an infertility specialist. Well since that didnt work I don't want to give up and wanted to know what will work for me? Is it the ACV? I'm healthy all around and active, yet I don't menstruate on my own. If any one out there can help I'd greatly appreciate it and wish everyone lots of luck for those trying!Replied By Teegal (Africa) on 05/23/2012
Try Vitex- Chasteberry. Excellent for infertility and amenorria. Also ACV will work on ridding your system of toxin and restore your menses.Replied By Jones (Petah Tikva, Israel) on 10/02/2012
I am trying to get pregnant from long time and before few months I went to doctor and he told he cant give me any treatment as I have ovarian cysts and I need to wait till it goes. Please advise me some home remedies for ovarian cysts. Will ACV help me to get pregnant and cure ovarian cysts? Please advise.Replied By Mmsg (Somewhere, Europe) on 10/02/2012
Jones, read up on Blackstrap Molasses on this site.Replied By Andrea (Chicago, Il) on 10/12/2012
I began taking ACV to help my acne. I would take a shot of it before bed. I'm not sure how long I had been taking it before I discovered I was pregnant. I have PCOS and 2 months prior my gyno told me I was not ovulating. My husband and I were surprised and elated about the pregnancy. I think the ACV balanced my PH level and helped me get pregnant. I was taking the organic kind. I had a girl and am curious to know the sex of the babies conceived with ACV :)Replied By Lanos (So Calif, Usa) on 10/15/2012
I wanted a boy after two girls. Someone suggested I should use an ACV douche immediatly prior to intercourse.. It worked. Not sure about consuming ACV by mouth.Replied By Lola (Washington, Dc) on 10/22/2012
I recently got rid of a hemorraghic cyst by using castor oil packs over my abdomen area and putting a heating pad over it for a couple of hours for 2 nights. On the third morning I felt it dissolve as I felt a slight burning sensation in my stomach. Ladies, for those of you having issues with cysts, infertility, pcos and have tried or maybe considering ivf please read the book about making babies. I can't really say the title here but it's written by a well known, in demand dr who uses both western and eastern, holistic approach. I just finished reading it and i'm completely amazed by it. Many women TTC for years even after failed ivf have followed his advice and have become pregnant. The doctor's name is Sami. I'm hoping this is helpful as I came on here a couple of weeks ago looking for something for my cyst and found out about the castor oil packs which I feel helped out in getting rid of my cyst. Thanks Earthclinic!
