getting myself in a tizz
I saw an endo specialist privately end of Feb. He said over 50% chance I have it. But, couldn't feel any nodules on physical examination. My CA 125 came back fine. Since then I have been supplementing with magnesium, selenium and zinc. I also tried pre-loading my painkillers a few days before for this

Diet
Hello! I'm just wondering if anyone has been given advice on what they should or shouldn't eat in both leading up to egg collection and after transfer? Our clinic hasn't mentioned anything to us apart from me taking Folic Acid and Hubby a multi vit tablet with Zinc. Our diets are normally pretty good

“Interesting” blood test results
Crikey, this journey does sometimes feel like 2 steps forward and one back based on some recent blood test results. If anyone has read my recent posts I have majored on getting supplements right and happily have the important ones now in sensible ranges: ferritin, D, iron, magnesium. Except zinc is
