    Raspberry leaf supplement, good or bad for increased fertility and early pregnancy?
    I have searched and searched and searched all over the internet, asked various herbalist and gotten the opinions of all the women I respect in my life. No one seems to know if raspberry leaf supplement has/will have a positive or negative effect on increasing fertility or what the effects on a possible pregnancy will be. I am split about 70% pro raspberry leaf, 30% against. Those odds are still a little too uncertain to gamble a pregnancy on, so I'm popping in here.

    I do have a history of miscarriage and hormonal imbalance which caused hemorrhaging last year and was corrected with birth control. I have since been to two follow up appointments and gotten the all clear from my doctor. I have also experienced four months of a normal menstrual cycle with out medication. My husband and I have decided that we're ready to start a family, so now I'm lost with all this conflicting information. I would like to use as many herbal supplements as possible, but I'm not 100% opposed to synthetics.

    What is your opinion on raspberry leaf supplement for use in both early pregnancy and/or increasing the chances of conception, and do you have any additional suggestions?
