    I conceived right away the first time.
    But for the second time it took a longer time.
    After 7 months of trying my OB suggested my husband take CoQ10
    First cycle of him taking it and BOOM got pregnant.
    8 weeks now. Praying for a healthy pregnancy ♥️

      May I ask was there a certain reason why your husband had to take it and not you? You don’t have to go into detail if you’re not comfortable. I’m just trying to debate if my husband and I should take it together. I just ordered some.

    Thank you Doctor to explain it all. I wish they would do these studies on a bigger scale. Just from my own experience, me and my partner tried to get pregnant longer then one year, I am 36 years old. Then I found this recommendation on the internet to take CoQ10, just me not my partner. And after one month taking the supplement every day I was pregnant. Not sure if it was the supplement, but definitely worth the try! Now 39 weeks pregnant and very excited to meet the baby boy. The supplement I took is Bandini Coenzima Q10 200mg. The same dose as the doctor recommends in the video. I got it on Amazon, it is made in Italy and vegan sold on Amazon. Good luck all on your journey!

    When i took q10 300mg daily my cycle got really long, it happened on several trials. I can't be 100% sure but i tried to stop and restart much later. There a mumsnet thread of other women reporting this too. Again we could be pinning it incorrectly on thr co enzyme q10. I'm now taking just 30mg ahd hoping that good food sources help.

    Informative....My wife is taking CoQ10 200mg last 3-4 months. She is 37yrs now, experienced 3 times miscarriages. Her AMH level was 0.28 ng/mL 3months ago before taking CoQ10 but now it is 0.03 ng/mL. She has tyroid but under control. She has diabetes and was controlled....Suddenly HBA1C level increases to 7.4 but it was 6.4~6.6. Is this the only reason for the AMH level dropping more within months? We are planning for a baby

    • @emilyb5557
      @emilyb5557 4 місяці тому

      That level of change in amh is probably not significant - the test won't give an absolutely precise exact same number if you tested each day for a week. Same as we see for something like haemoglobin. So I wouldn't read that as a decrease.

    • @nehadahmed8766
      @nehadahmed8766 4 місяці тому

      Hmm. You are right, my wife tested the AMH again after 2 months, this time it's back the earlier stage 0.27
      She is continuing to take CoQ10 200. But diabetes will be a factor, I mean if uncontrolled

      I am a thyroid cancer survivor with a full thyroidectomy in 2014. My endocrinologist upped my Synthroid when I mentioned trying to conceive. If you have insufficient thyroid hormone levels, conception is going to be more difficult and complications can become more prevalent.
      Like any supplements, be sure to time them at least 2-4 hours after your morning t4 pill. CoQ10 and DHEA are perfectly safe to take.
