Dear Bob Liebert,

I am 40 yrs old and trying to get pregnant. I have already had 3 children, with the last one being 15. I am having no problems getting pregnant (4 times in the last year), but I keep miscarrying them around 5-6 weeks. I am on synthetic progesterone, and this month took a round of Clomid. I was wondering if there is any herbs that I might take. I do not want to go through IVF to get pregnant.

Dear Friend,

I have seen many good things from the use of our BLACK HAW BARK extract; it is a traditional remedy used as a preventative in chronic miscarriage, as well as often being able to stop some types of miscarriages with its uterine sedative properties. I do not have experience with it used in conjunction with high-dose medical hormones; it couldn't hurt, though; more like the meds may make its success unpredictable. Let me know if you need further info.

Yours in healing,
Bob Liebert, herbalist
