We are planning baby and I am on my period right now. I heard food during period and after period can help body prepare, but I dont know what is actually useful. What did you eat while trying?
Honestly no special food during periods makes you conceive, that's a myth. What matters is overall healthy eating and timing intercourse around ovulation, which is after your period. Eat balanced, iron rich food and don't fall for shortcuts.
With my PCOS I was extra careful about diet, but no single food during periods boosts conceiving. Overall healthy eating and managing weight helped me more. If you've been trying a while, worth checking with a gynac too, don't lose heart.
I researched this a lot while trying. There's no magic period food really. I just focused on eating well overall, greens, fruits, folic acid, and tracking my fertile days. The timing matters way more than what I ate during periods.
I was also looking for things to eat, but turns out it's more about eating healthy all the time and the right timing of the cycle. I just kept my meals nutritious and started folic acid after asking my doctor.
Elders give all kinds of food advice na, but truly there's no specific period food for conceiving. Eat nourishing home food, stay healthy, and try around your ovulation days. A doctor can guide better if it's taking time.
