Hi, I'm due to be referred for NHS IVF soon, and the waiting list is quite short in my area, so I want to start preparing for it now.
Has anyone been recommended any specific supplements/vitamins by your clinic? Or any particular advise to prepare?
My issues are lack of ovulation, and age (I'm 39), with not great ovarian reserve - FSH of 12 and AMH of 9. No PCOS. History of thyroid issues but been stable for a few years now without meds. My cycles are regular. I was surprised to find out I wasn't ovulating as it feels like I am, however my gynaecologist doesn't want to mess around trying to make me ovulate as I'm close to the age cut-off for referral.
I've read It Starts with an Egg, and there is a lot of advice there regarding supplements etc, but the book is a few years old now, so I was wondering if any of that advice had filtered into the clinics and been recommended by them?
I've been taking folic acid/vitd for the last 18 months already while TTC.
Thanks for the help.
