Ubiquinol - did it improve egg /sperm quality?

So many expensive pre conceive supplements out there, husband and I decided to not spend so much money on those and bought individual supplements instead that we felt were key, ubiquinol being one of those. Husband and I have been taking uniquinol for the past 2 months paid something like £150, this was recommended by our fertility Dr. But I've been looking into this and research studies are not suggesting strong results, or any in some.

Before spending more money, I want to ask women who've gone through more than one IVF cycle, and had the opportunity to compare egg / partner's sperm quality beofre and after taking ubiquinol, was there a noticible improvement? Were there other factors such as diet or was it mostly down to ubiquinol.

This would really help make better decision. Thank you!

Hi, do you have an IVF cycle coming up? If you have already paid for 2 months of ubiquinol and are doing treatment soon I'd continue since it usually takes 3 months to see results, but I feel you they are so expensive!!! We both took ubiquinol and almost all of my husband's parameters improved substantially, although it was also alongside a better diet and almost no alcohol. If the choice was ubiquinol and drinking or no drinking and no ubiquinol I'd definitely go for no alcohol. We don't have anything to compare it to but we got a good number of good quality blasts so if we go for another round I'd definitely do the same again. I also followed the egg quality diet.

Our fertilisation rate increased from 10 percent to 85.7 percent after my husband and I both took it. We added on aoa and zymot for icis. It was my best round so far. 6 out of 7 eggs fertilised. 3 ended up good quality blasts- 2 of them didn't work. The final one has just been transferred so waiting for the result.

good luck xx
