Lifestyle, diet and ivf

[Lavendartea]

Has anyone got any useful diet /lifestyle advice in preparation for ivf?

Hi Lavendertea,

I would recommend you read the book ‘It starts with an egg’. You don’t have to follow everything in the book (I certainly didn’t) but it’s has great info and instructions on what supplements you should take to improve your chances and what kind of low carb diet you should aim for.

Good luck on your journey.

I would also recommend it starts with the egg book, but what has really helped me stay in control and focus in the lead up to this cycle is Zita West. She has a 30 day prep, you can still sign up and listen to all her videos, really good advice with regards to lifestyle and nutrition. I also bought her books, eat yourself pregnant and the IVF diet book, I've really enjoyed doing some of the recipes. Have also enjoyed doing fertility yoga, lots of videos on you tube. Good luck xx
