Supplements To Help IVF Rates!
Hello! I recently purchased lots of supplements. I am wondering if I need more. P.S. I can't take anything that is anti-inflammtory due to being on blood thinners.
-Vitamin A
-Folic Acid
-CoQ10 - Ubiquiniol
-Maca Capsules
-Vitamin C
-Calcium
Anything else I should be trying? I am also using Vitamin A, Maca, and CoQ10 for the hubs too. I will be doing a minimal stimming so I want the eggs that I do get to be of high quality. We will be using a surrogate as well since I can't carry anymore ;(DS1: DS2 Dreaming

How much Vitamin A?
I am not a fan of maca. It interferes with hormones and may mess with the IVF meds.
You need to be on folate instead of folic acid, I think that will be better for you.
I'd have you taking Vitamin D 1000 IU too.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Thanks for letting me know that, I've had quite a few weird symptoms reported with the maca.
carry on with your scrip with the Vit. D that will only help.
That is far more Vit A than I recommend. That is the absolute max safe amount to take and I'd much prefer you to be more in the realm of 2500-3500 or so. I know the rules are a bit different since you will not be carrying the baby, but then again we know so little about how it all works that I'd err on the side of caution and reduce that.
I would have you probably take folate instead of FA if that is an option.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Thanks a ton! The maca was just so odd. I had heard good things about it so I started it. I will admit I had some good energy but man those palpitations were bad.

Other people have reported really weird dreams and even one case of hallucinations (and this is in someone I've known for nearly 10 years and totally trust!)

Interesting. I did have some vivid dreams. Not sure if that is coincidental or the Maca. I also wanted to ask you about the Vitamin A. You said I was taking extra Vitamin A will that hurt my egg quality?

I don't know, but since I know that too much can be harmful during pregnancy, it makes me nervous. So little is known about all this stuff.

I was just about to get on here again to ask you about these supps. I went to the dr and my blood pressure was slighly elevated 151/80. I usually have low BP like 120/70. Today I have a bad headache and last night felt a bit dizzy. Do you think any of these supps could cause the spike in BP?
