Supplements during stims?

Prayingforafamily profile image

Hi all. Just after some general advice. I am about to start stimming for short protocol and in preparation I have been taking many supplements

Coenzyme 10/ dhea/ omega 3/ royal jelly/ vitD / vit e/ l’argeane

Am I ok continuing these while stimming? I have asked my clinic but they couldn’t really give a definite answer tbh. I just don’t want any to interfere with the menopur I am about to take. Anyone had any advice on this it would be greatly appreciated??? TIA

I kept taking mine until egg collection. That was the advice of my clinic. Good luck x

Quickly reduce down your dhea (not a sudden stop but drop to 2 a day then one then stop). My clinic advise to stop that before stims as it could potentially interfere. Others are all ok I think xx

My fertility doctor specifically told me to take DHEA (3x daily), coq10 (600mg daily) and pqq (20mg daily). I also took omega 3 and my prenatal. Oh, and Mg and B2 (migraine supplements). My stim went fine while taking these.
