| NO NO NO NO NO. i will say it again NO! I know we all think aloe vera is this great healing plant, but its a purgative chemical, which means it expells things that are not normally in the body, aka a growing fetus. its actually believed that aloe vera can help promote aborting the fetus and bringing on menstration...and as we all know, in ttc, that is teh LAST thing you want happen!!! |

All I could find was literature on using it the week after AF til OV and nothing more. Thanks huni  |
