Question 1

my husband is taking clomid per doctor orders but he wants to try fertilaid can he try that with clomid?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Ask the doctor who wrote for the Clomid. The Fertilaid comes in three different types from their website.
There is Fertilaid, Boost counter, and Motility. Since it contains L-carnitine an amino acid, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants seems OK to use.
