Is Shatavari Effective In The Treatment Of Infertility?

Hello. I just started taking Shatavari to increase my chances of conception. I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and prescribed with Clomid which I am not keen on taking as of yet, and am trying natural supplements. That said, is there a dosage that I need to follow for fertility purposes? I read in some forums that I should stop taking during ovulation. Please advise. Thank you.

Hi I think in PCO patients, there is absence of ovulation which leads to delayed periods and infertility. So, medicines like Clomid is given to induce ovulation and help in conceiving. You can take ayurvedic medicines and try naturally for a pregnancy if your periods are regular. Get a thyroid profile and prolactin level done. Hope it helps.
