Protein & ivf ?

Question

So in my recent (failed) cycle I was craving protein nonstop. I added a bit more (eggs for breakfast a couple of times) to my diet but not much. Today I was doing some research and there are a few studies that suggest a 25% or higher intake of protein helps with ivf success. I'm thinking of buying some unflavored unsweetened whey protein to add to my food to see if it helps. Have you tried this with any success?

Answer

My guess (I am not a doctor) would be that it's useful not because you are eating more protein per say, but that by eating more protein you naturally end up eating fewer carbs. And carbs are what spike your blood sugar and affect your hormones. Either way it would be hard for anyone in this forum to prove that they were successful because of the addition of some protein powder. Honestly I'd just focus on eating as clean as possible (fewer carbs, no processed food, etc) and focus less on the need to supplement, but that's just me.

Answer

Answer

Hey Bee, I heard something about this too from Dr Google, but I ended up realising that if there was anything to it, my dr would recommend it. I figure if you eat healthy foods, listen to your body and listen to your doctors then you are doing everything in your control. Good luck to you, I hope you get a BFP :)
