Supplements for Men

[Lilli79]

Hi there everyone

We are back on the fertility diet after mc. Am just wondering if anyone has any tips for supplements? I am just taking conception tablets, and my husband is taking multivitamins and fish oils and iron (my eggs are OK, his sperm has motility and morphology issues). Should he be taking conception tablets instead of multivitamins? What's the difference? Also he is taking iron because he recently turned veggie but I heard that you shouldn't take iron and zinc together (he's now taking at different times of the day), I'm wondering if he should be taking iron at all though. It's all very confusing, any help much appreciated 😊

We took the pregnacare and wellman conception combo.

Thanks Kempton we took these before when we did our first round and his sperm sample improved a little but we think this was mostly down to giving up smoking/drinking less. I think we will swap to a fertility multivitamin when he has finished this pack xxx

We use the pregnacare and wellman tablets. I also make a smoothie for us everyday for my hubby I always put some spinach and kale in which is packed full of iron and also blend some walnuts in as they are supposed to be good for sperm health x

Thanks Shanks_21 I might look at some smoothie recipes, thanks for the tip. He is always chomping on walnuts, but the spinach and kale in the fridge should probably be eaten more!! 😜

I just make mine the smoothie and tell him to drink it lol

[Lilli79 in reply to Shanks_21]

Definitely! I just looked at your previous post about smoothie ingredients, off to the supermarket I go!!

[Shanks_21 in reply to Lilli79]

I tend to make mine up and just chuck whatever in lol

My husband has been taking proxeed. It's supposed to help improve sperm count and mobility. We get them on amazon.

Let me know if it works!

My husband was taking menevit before giving his sperm on egg retrieval. It's like elevit but for men.

My clinic recommends condensyl or menovit as complete supplements from men; expensive but just one tablet per day x
