Vitamins for ovulation

Hi!

Just wondering if there’s any vitamins that can help ovulation? Either triggering it or boosting the hormones needed.

Af was two days late this month which means the vitamin c has helped lengthen my LP which is a start. Just need to help the ovulation now I think.

And myo-inositol! I also lost some weight and that seems to have encouraged ovulation last cycle as I got a positive ovulation test.

I'm trying soy isoflavones next cycle. I take vitamin e, b6, b12, and CoQ10 for egg quality. Vitamin c and omega 3 too.

I user conceive plus ovulation support tablets & it helped my period go from 66 days, down to 40 and now I have 30-35 day cycles with regular positive OPK each month :)

@katewitch mainly because of my age. I’m 39 and tracked my LG levels last cycle and I didn’t get a very high reading really. Highest was .76 which isn’t high really. I did have a chemical in Early January so I guess I could have just skipped ovulation this month because of that.

@Moominmiss thank you! I’ll have a look for them. I figured anythings worth a try. Gonna change my vitamin c to after my fertile week as it can dry up cm apparently but it does work for lengthening LP.

Soy isoflavones. Taken either cd2-6, 3-7, 4-8 or 5-9.

Depending which days you take them they can have a slightly different effect. The earlier you take then you have a stronger chance of releasing multiple eggs and ovulation may be brought forward slightly, the later you take them the more nature the egg will be but your ovulation won’t be brought any earlier.
Many opt to take them days 3-7 seeing as it’s the best of both worlds. A good strong ovulation, mature egg and ovulation may be slightly earlier.

The only one I've heard of for this is myo-inositol... I'm taking it to try and regulated my cycles as they're unpredictable and I'd like to encourage regular ovulation. Do you have any reason to think you're having issues ovulating?
