Question

is that true?

Answer 1

I was under the impression that sex got you pregnant

Answer 2

Do a google search on this......... Metformin is a drug to treat diabetics. I would be careful it could drop your levels too low.

The OJ is to raise your blood sugar because the metformin will lower it......... This is dangerous !!!!!! Read below and do a google search

Side effects,

Many women prescribed Metformin must discontinue its use due to the gastrointestinal side effects. The most commonly reported adverse effects include diarrhea, gas and bloating, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and vomiting (1, 6). Another consideration of Metformin therapy is its effect on B12 absorption. Ten - 30% of people receiving long term Metformin therapy develop B12 malabsorption, which could potentially lead to anemia.

It has also been shown that treatment with Metformin may increase homocysteine levels (amino acids found in the blood), which is a risk factor for atherosclerosis or fatty deposits in blood vessels (7).

The contraindications in using Metformin include liver failure, alcoholism, compromised renal function, hypoxic conditions and moderate to severe infections. These conditions predispose women to having lactic acidosis, which is a life-threatening complication and carries a mortality rate of 30% - 50% (1).

Answer 3

Orange juice wont help you get prego any faster, just increase your folic acid intake that is important during pregnancy, you can increase it by taking prenatal vitamins while you are try to concieve as well.

Answer 4

orange juice?? sorry thats a no.... and metformin is just used to treat diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome (which will help with complications, possibly helping with getting pregnant since they chances are low with PCOS), liver disease, and premature puberty... but no neither will help you get pregnant fast like a fertility drug would.

Answer 5

Orange juice is actual stable in the time of being pregnant. whether, do no longer drink unpasteurized orange juice, it particularly is no longer stable. seem on the label, if it says pasteurized then it particularly is advantageous..

Answer 6

Drinking OJ will not "help" you get pregnant..... what it is ..is that women who are trying to get or are pregnant should be taking folic acid...... OJ contains alot of it. That must be the confusion.

Good Luck

Answer 7

I better stop drinking OJ if that is the case

Answer 8

Um, I have never heard that...sounds pretty hokey to me.

Answer 9

Don't know about that but eggs do.

Answer 10
