Hi Everyone so im getting prepared for my 4th cycle And i came across a book called IT starts with the egg by Rebecca Fett. It has given me so much hope. I have poor egg quality and was told there is not much to be done but keep trying and hope for a good egg but after reading this book I realized there is soo much we can do to improve egg quality, prevent misscarriage and get a good outcome with PCOS . Its the simplest liest things. Pls read it if ur struggling it will make such a difference . I will keep u all posted if this cycle comes out differently

Hi Chantysal. Glad to read your all good to go for your next round. That book is really the bible of infertility it seems as there are so many references to it on the forums. I didnt use it for my first round but did pick some stuff for this round so lets see if it makes any difference. All the best 💐

Yes I did, currently 20 weeks. The biggest change I made was me and hubby taking ubiquinol. Perhaps it was a coincidence, but I believe it helped.

I followed most of the advice in the book and had a very good second round. 10 out of 15 blasts were PGS normal and I attribute it to my improved egg quality.

Good luck!! Wishing you the best for your round xxx

No, I did not take it. I decided against it because I’m 33 and the author recommended it for 40 year old women from memory

Thanks I will definitely read. Cos here doctors are hardly helpful, I feel my last fet is not working Cos literally no symptoms. It’s not that I don’t know the symptoms, I was pregnant twice and I clearly know how my body is when it’s pregnant. I want to everything in my potential before I start my third cycle

If ur still waiting for the result be hopeful dont give up just yet. I totally understand so many things doctors dont bother telling u that be be soo beneficial its really annoying honestly. Meanwhile small things u can start of with dump all plastics even shower curtains , dont eat refined carbs , switch to all natural detergent ls, creams etc. as for the supplements she talks allot about them but each case is different so u have to read what u think will

Work best for u. To be honest i was diagnosed with low amh and bad quality eggs and after reading this it got my hopes up and read so many success stories
