What supplements are you taking?

My RE is ok with taking supplements...she said there's no hard evidence it helps, but it definitely doesn't hurt. So she said to go for it!

So right now I'm just taking my prenatal vitamins and CoQ-10. I read that it helps with egg quality.

What are you taking and why? I think I want to try wheat grass and royal jelly (but I don't know if I'm allergic to bees or not!)

I've only been taking a prenatal and Vitamin D (because I recently discovered I'm deficient -- like most Americans -- and that it could have some affect on fertility). I have had a few months where I was on herbal supplements given to me by my acupuncturist...not sure what was in it, but I'll tell you what. My periods became less painful and much easier to deal with. Plus, I started ovulating at a more normal time. So I really attribute that to the herbs. I've heard good things about CoQ-10, wheat grass and royal jelly, but haven't tried it

EPO from AF-O.  And prenatal. 

@KC1212...I was considering taking the Fertilaid for women and asking DH to take the one for men.  How long has YH been taking it?

I take a regular multi vitamin, folic acid + dha, multi mineral, B complex, and just for shts and giggles I started taking Fertilaid for woman. I bought this fertailaid years ago and just left if it sitting in my drawer- found it recently with an expiration of 2014 and figured- why not try this before it expires LOL. I will not be buying another bottle, so it's just a one month supply.

I'm only taking PNV and progesterone from the day after IUI to AF. I've thought about taking something else but I'm not sure what would be best.

I have taken prenatal vitamins for years but recently I was told to take prenatal vitamins with DHA and folic acid.

He started taking it June 19th of this year. He has Male Factor IF.

I have him on the Fertilaid, countboost, and motility boost. If it takes 3 months to kick in we were going to give it 6 months before we ditch it.

I take EPO, vitamin D, and B complex every day. Was taking Vitex but stopped when I was prescribed Clomid.
