Probiotics during two week wait

I’ve been taken a gut probiotic and a vaginal probiotic (taken orally) in prep for my first FET. Can I continue to take these during the two week wait?

Thanks

I took bio.me femme v probiotic and my clinic said it was safe to continue. I would double check with your clinic xx

Double check with them xx Sometimes it’s not necessary and they are expensive. I was told to stop unnecessary meds after egg collection such as ubiquinol and NAD but have always taken the bio.me femme v for fresh and frozen transfers xx

I was taking probiotic drink from a month before my transfer and all the way to now at 9 weeks pregnant, I will continue to take it ❤️

I’d double check with your clinic but I took a ‘women’s optibac’ one right through the 2ww and then switched to a pregnancy one (I’m 24 weeks now). Best of luck!

I only stopped the vaginal ones anything oral should be okay, obviously check with your clinic lovely to be safe but nothing I read or was told said it wasn’t 🤗 xx

Yeah my clinic was the same but they did tell me if what I was taking should be okay. I stopped the probiotics halfway through 2ww anyways at that point if it’s gonna stick it will in my opinion and I felt I was in so much meds and stuff I cut it down to a multivitamin only but that’s just my personal preference and cos it was a FET xx
