Hello ladies,

Did any of you ladies take any additional supplements before your IVF egg collection to try and improve your egg quality? Thinking about trying all options, but don’t want to take the wrong thing!

It's better to take ubiquinol rather than coq10 as it absorbs better. It is more expensive but supposed to be more effective x

I have taken jarrow formulas in the past and now switched to natures choice as cheaper. Both are available in Amazon x

I'm not sure. I take 600mg a day as have low amh but I think others take between 100-300mg a day

I’ve took coenzyme q10 aswel as other vits c,d,zinc etc. I am 6 weeks pregnant and this is after I was told I’m not ovulating.
