Cycle shortened due to age, can I improve it through natural means?

I’m 43 and I used to have a cycle length of 27/28, now it’s more like 23/25. I had to have a termination for medical reasons in September and it’s been terrible ever since. A year ago it was 28 days and we conceived.

The last time this happened which was around five years ago, I had acupuncture which was amazing. My cycle lengthened within a few cycles. But it’s so expensive!!! I know it’s age but can diet help at all?

Q10 is supposed to be good to take, it’s lengthened my cycle by a few days x

Oooh that’s interesting, I’ve heard a lot of great things about coenzyme Q10. Any particular make/strength?

I got mine from Holland and Barrett www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-coenzyme-q10-capsules-100mg-60015592?skuid=015592

(100mg ones)

It’s supposed to be good for egg quality too 😊

Ok I can definitely try those supplements and see how I go. I’m not expecting to fall pregnant if I’m honest but I definitely won’t with a ridiculously short cycle.
