A well renowned Nutritionist from New York has given me some additional advise for my current health dilemma(s) with Dysmenorrhea & Oligomenorrhea- advise given to me via my Mom who sat down with her at a Health Seminar where this lady spoke, and told her about me. Here is what Roslyn Rogers ‘told me’:
In addition to:
- My Vegetarian Diet
- Plenty of Water
- Exercise
- Eating mostly, (preferably ALL) Organic Food
- Intake an adequate amount of Fish Oil, either by supplement or fresh (fresh is ideal)
- Magnesium Supplement
- Vitamin D
- Juice Plus
I will need to:
- Cut out ALL sweets! She said, “Sugar is an enemy to women who have reproductive disorders. They influence pain heavily, and overall do not help aid your health”. So I’ll need to go cold turkey on sweets
- Why eating mostly (preferably ALL) Organic Food , is for example: Milk. Milk that has been pasteurized and homogenized has added hormones, pestisides & antibiotics that will not help my already hormone imbalanced state that my female reproductive system is in. For example:
“Milk that is labeled “USDA Organic” must come from cows that have not been treated with bovine growth hormone (BGH) to increase milk production. People who focus on this goal express concern that hormones in milk could raise the risk of hormone-related cancers, or lead to higher levels of an insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) linked with cancer.
A second characteristic of organic milk is that these cows are not treated with antibiotics. If a cow in an organic herd does need to be treated with antibiotics, she is not returned to the herd for a period of 12 months. Yet in conventional herds, milk from cows that receive antibiotics is not used until tests show it is antibiotic-free. Tanks of milk are routinely tested to ensure no antibiotic content.
A third requirement of organic milk is that cows’ feed is grown without pesticides, whether the feed is grass or grain. Recent USDA reports show that nonorganic milk may contain low levels of certain pesticides” Read more about why Organic Milk…
I need pure & whole food to help quicken the process of healing and make it a permanent state of balanced health.
I have paraphrased her statements of course, but she said that making all of the above a part of my lifestyle permanently will help balance out my hormones and should also help regulate – better, my menstrual cycle. In turn, should also make it easier to get pregnant as well. 
YAY! ♥
Going cold turkey on sweets will be VERY HARD, but from past experiences in eliminating most habits, the first 2 weeks are always the hardest. Then it becomes easier thereafter.
Wish me luck!

Has clomid been brought up? I am taking it right now because I have very irregular periods that I usually get about every 3-4 months but now after taking the clomid it comes about every 35 days, and now I ovulate about on day 20 of my cycle.
Yeah, my friend Claire had mentioned Clomid.
WOW! 3-4 months? I am lucky to have mine come naturally every 30-43 days currently.
I just might try out Clomid, if my diet doesn’t do the trick for me naturally.
We’re not in any rush to get pregnant. It has just been freaking me out that my period is gradually getting shorter (i.e. 1.5 days long), and is so irregular in when it arrives.
Thank you for your comment ♥, it helps to know I’m not alone in being a woman who has it a bit harder in getting pregnant. Sometimes it feels like I am surrounded by women who have it so easy getting pregnant!
