Hi friends! I’m gearing up for my 2nd round of <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> and started taking some supplements a few weeks ago to help with my egg quality. My first round was severely impacted by endometriosis (that none of us knew about until my egg retrieval). It caused me to respond poorly to stims (only 7 follicles which was half of what we were anticipating based on my age, AMH, and AFC), our fresh transfer was cancelled, and we only ended up with one embryo. Even that one barely made it.

We believe that the endo really affected my egg quality so I started taking some things to try to help for our next round. By the time we do our retrieval I will have taken them for 3 months. I’m currently taking:

75mg DHEA

400mg Ubiquinol

200mg R-Lipoic Acid

600mg NAC

3mg Melatonin

Have any of you taken any combination of those? Did they help?

(Also- at what point did you stop taking them?)
