magnesium and implantation

Hi,

I was reading the other day that magnesium supplements help with implantation but now seem to have lost that post.

Can someone guide on the above and suggest any magnesium supplements they have been using?

Thanks

I took solgar magnesium citrate (citrate is the one you want for fertility) 400mg every night.

Thank you.. so do you take it in preparation for ivf cycle or just like before/ after transfer

I started it 2 weeks before my frozen transfer and Ive continued to 6 weeks and just dropped it to 200mg to avoid toxicity.

You can probably start earlier than that though.

I can’t say that it was what contributed to bfp as it was my first transfer but I don’t think it hurts to try and I’m sure its helped me sleep better which is always a bonus-I take it in the evening after dinner

I’ve not read about this before. But after 5 failed transfers I’m wondering about trying this now
