I cannot have children anymore b/c I had to have a total hysterectomy last Oct for severe endo. However, I am an avid reader, and ran across an article in a magazine a few days ago that might help someone. (You never know!) I wish I could remember where I saw it, it was in a magazine, (and I read about 7 on vacation!) I think it was either Good Housekeeping, Redbook or Reader's Digest. If anyone is interested, I will go thru them to find out for sure....it was this month's for sure.

Anyway, the article said that the Diva Cup (or the generic brands) may help those trying to concieve, if inserted right after sex, because it helps hold in the sperm and increases the likelyhoold of conception. It went on to say that early infertility drs used a similar contraption with moderate sucess.

I just wanted to post this for anyway who might want to try it. If you are interested in reading the article, then let me know, and I will go through the mags to see which one the article was in.

Hope this helps someone! Hugs, Amy

Amy,

I found the website but no info on it being used for infertility but I'll try anything as long as it's not chemical.

you can also use "instead" cups for the same thing. thanks for posting this. i can't get benefit from it because my issue is my uterine environment (chronic infection), but i know someone else can use this information.
