OMG!!! I totally forgot about that. Years ago I had heard that and everyone of my friends did it and they all go pg!! Even the older one of us, she did IUI she was 38 @ the time, she is now 47 and her daughter is 7 about to be 8. They took them all the way up until they got a
 , then they switched to prenatal vitamins. I can't believe I forgot about that. I didn't do it bcuz I was single and so NOT ttc. I am going to try that with this next Jan/Feb ivf cycle. Thank you soooo much!!! Good Luck to everyone!!

I haven't heard of this before. I agree, taking some OTC pills is much cheaper then perscription injections and such. Anything is worth a shot.

You ladies got me wondering what is Geritol! lol
I went to their website and found this posted at the bottom...maybe they're not ready to admit that maybe there could be some truth to the claims! lol Will the use of Geritol® increase my sex drive or fertility? There's no evidence that Geritol® can increase fertility and we don't make that claim. We're not sure how the rumor got started, but there's no truth to it.

Does anyone know WHY this seems to work?? And is it to help w/ pregnancy procedures or natural conception?? Or both? I tried the whole Robitussin thing and it didn't seem to have any affect on me. Anything's worth trying though!

Geritol is a multi-vitamin made by GlaxoSmithKline. This is what they say about it on their website: Complete for what's in it Special for what's not.TM A leading Multi-vitamin All the daily requirements of a healthy body Vitamins A, C,& E in 100% pure anti-oxidant form Not just a unique source of extra iron So, it looks like it is just a complete multi-vitamin. I have never heard of this before, but the stories coming out of it are interesting...

OK, I'm about to run to the store and pick up some of this Geritol! I've never heard of this before.
Does anyone know if it's safe to take while using Clomid?

Geritol
New to the site. Hi, I am also on clomid. This will be my 3rd cycle. TTC for 2 years. With no luck. I bought Geritol today. I heard it helps the dryness that clomid sometimes cause in Women, causing the sperm count to become low in males and not to having enough help to travel. I hope you can take it while on Clomid. I have also heard the Pre-Seed will help. Has anyone else heard about these things?
