COQ-10 prolonging cycle?

[MrsBP15]

Hi everyone

I’ve added COQ-10 into the mix as we prepare for ivf in a couple of months. The specialist recommended 600mg and I’ve been taking it for about 4 weeks. Just wondered if anyone else had found it prolongs their cycle? I was due yesterday and there isn’t even a whiff of anything and my cycles are 26-27 days like clockwork! I normally wouldn’t be bothered but it’s my husband’s birthday this weekend and we’ve treated ourselves to a weekend away. I’m now facing the prospect of being on my period (very heavy and painful) during what was meant to be a relaxing time. Oh and there’s definitely no chance I’m pregnant, my tubes are blocked af!

Hi @MrsBP15, yes this happened to me when I was taking them on the lead up to IVF and have always been like clockwork too. My clinic told me it wasn't anything to worry about though. I stopped taking them after egg collection

@ivfjourney2024 thank you so much! I think I’d read somewhere it can happen but just wanted to check. I hope that it either comes tomorrow or has the courtesy to stay away until Sunday otherwise my weekend will be a write off 😫
