Baby aspirin doesn't increase fertility per se, it increases blood flow and prevents clotting, so the idea behind its connection to fertility is assisting with implantation of the embryo to your uterus. So, in theory, if you were trying to get pregnant on your fertile days, once you enter the luteal phase and ovulation has occurred, you take a baby aspirin once a day until (and if) you get your period. I was actually just told this very thing yesterday by a reproductive endocrinologist at a fertility center!

For what it's worth, you can learn more about ovulation and the luteal phase, etc. by reading "Taking Charge of your Fertility" by Toni Weschler. I'm not saying you haven't tried this already, or that you don't know what you are doing, but it can teach you more about your body and how it works in general, so some of these questions can be more logically understood. It taught me so much simply about womanhood!

I believe it's a 1/2 every other day. It worked for my friend who had 9 miscarriages and they finally figured out she is a Lupus carrier but does not have the disease. It worked for her and now has 3 girls!

Baby aspirin helps with blood flow - it's usually prescribed for people with heart conditions. I found this article online - http://www.parentingweekly.com/preconception/preconceptio...

It looks like it may be of some help more for issues around treatments to help to prevent miscarriage and re. ivf, but the research is still ongoing.

I remember reading something about that, has something to preventing blood clotting. I don't think it actually increases fertility. Google maca root. Also, if you haven't looked into fertilityfriend.com you should. It's a really good resource. Good luck!
