    When to stop taking the supplements

    Hi,
    I was wondering if you are taking items like co-enzyme Q10 400mg and DHEA Prior to starting your cycle, when should you stop taking them and should you come off them slowly?

    Wondering if you got a BFP if you came off too soon there is a shock to your body?

    Your advice would be appreciated.

    1st Cycle - North Cyprus IVF - Oct 2010 - low AMH and no follicles - Cancelled & CIN3 removed.
    2nd Cycle - Genesis - Feb 2012 - 3 eggs, 2 fertilised = 2 girls. 1 with Edwards and 1 transferred - BFN
    3rd Cycle - Genesis - November 2012 - let's see where this journey ends!

    I personally would stop them the day of ER and I believe you can stop the ones you mentioned without having to wean. I stopped CoQ10 suddenly and I wasn't on DHEA so can't help you there.

    Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just breathe, and have faith that everything will work out for the best.
    ^^^That is exactly what I did and everything has FINALLY worked out for the best. I couldn't be more happier in my life than I am right now with these 2 blessings that were brought into my life.
