Hi, we've just been told that due to my low/ undetectable AMH and low follicle count, we will have to use donor eggs for IVF with the NHS. We've decided to have one shot at using my own eggs by paying to go private (my mum is helping us or we couldn't afford it at all!) CARE have suggested natural cycle IVF for my situation. My friend has suggested taking CQ10 ubiquinol and DHEA before hand, (she has a friend who had a natural pregnancy after trying for years when she took these two supplements) I've done some reading and people do seem to rate both supplements, but DHEA comes with some slightly scary potential side effects. I'm a little wary of taking it (on the other hand at this point if I was told injecting heroin might improve my chances id probably consider it!) Has anyone had any experience, good or bad, of taking DHEA before/during IVF? Thanks X
