- Having gone through seven back-to-back IVF egg retrievals last year, I have tried quite a few different types of supplements and supplement brands! This is the second video I share about my fertility supplements while getting IVF, and so it's an update video on 1) the new supplements that I added during my egg retrievals which resulted in my best cycle, and 2) the supplements I'm taking to prepare for my FET (frozen embryo transfer) now.
Check out supplements that I started out with here: • Best Supplements for E...
To maximize my chances of IVF success at 40 with a super low AMH, I focused on improving my egg quality. I share the supplements that I took to improve my egg quality, many of which were recommended by a nutritionist or a doctor. Although the odds are against me, I have yielded more embryos than my doctor initially expected. (Disclaimer: I am not a healthcare professional and everyone is different, so please talk to your own doctor about which supplements you should take!)

About me ❤
My name is Hellynn and live in the US, but I've traveled to Korea (where I'm from) to undergo multiple rounds of IVF. Being 40 and trying to bring children into the world is hard, but I also have a condition called diminished ovarian reserve so I'm doing back-to-back IVF egg retrievals.
Navigating this world of infertility is definitely a challenge - a million new acronyms, hormones and protocols to learn - it's a lot. So I thought I'd just talk about everything I've been learning for the women out there who have had similar struggles. I'm also happy to share info with anyone who is interested in traveling to Korea for IVF, since it's much more cost efficient + high success rates here.
I am treating this YT channel as my diary, talking about the ups and downs of my journey to motherhood so that one day, hopefully, my babies will see how they were created... with fierce, enduring strength and love.
I hope you find my videos helpful - thanks for stopping by.

Thank you for sharing the result of your reasearch. I started Co-Q10 last week and hesitated to first detox my liver before beginning IVF (for now, I just did 2 inseminations) and now, I feel even more that I need to do so. I'll try desmodium leaves powder for that as that's what resulted the most from my own research in the French medical litterature (I live in France). Wishing you the best and also to all of us women who are trying to get babies ^_^ Btw, I'm also 40 and trying to get my first baby, take care! ^_^
Hi there, thank you for sharing! Honestly, I resisted the liver detox for a while too even though my nutritionist recommended it because I was afraid it might be too strong or harsh on my body, but I wanted a cleanse before my transfer. I will definitely also check out desmodium leaves powder. I hope that both of us will soon be able to update each other with good news. It's so nice to meet you and I'm wishing you all the best!😃
@@hellynn_j Ah yes that's exactly what I felt concerning the liver detox! With pleasure, me too and I'm sending you good vibes for your next trip to Korea and the best of luck for your transfer! ^_^/
Hi both,
Detoxification of the Liver is pertinent particularly for fertility over 40.
I'm 42, single and unmarried. Although I just met someone special.
I wanted to enquire about my fertility & options available to me naturally so
I decided to vist a TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) fertility specialist here in the UK.
My blood tests results were AMH 4.2, my FSH & LH were on the high side though over 10.
They recommended a Liver detox initially as its a major organ to stabilise the hormones.
I was quite sceptical but I am glad I went ahead.
I felt a tingling sensation down there with instant relief to my stress.
Needless to say my next results came back normal.
You can also use milkthistle herb & / or Tudca powder for Liver detox.
Hello, Hellynn!
Thank you for sharing all the info and experience! In your videos and comments under them I understood that you practice yoga and positive affirmations. Would you be able to share some sources for both like authors, books, videos, etc.?
Wishing you so much all your dreams to come true!
Hello! Nice to meet you! Yes, I have been meditating, practicing positive affirmations, and doing yoga (although I've been a little lazy with that post transfer🙄). I love Gabby Bernstein's books and affirmations. I also practice Yoga with Adrienne on TH-cam as well as Boho Beautiful. I also love journaling in my 5 minute journal which has some wonderful quotes and affirmations. Ill do my next video on this, thank you for the inspiration💗
Thank you so much for your reply, Hellynn! I’ll check all recommendations and will be waiting for your next video! Fingers crossed for lots of good news in near future ❤
Theralogix is a great brand.
favorite supp brand👌
Myo inositol gives me bad heartburn so I'm trying metformin.
How to keep calm & still wait for the miracle to happen & conceive?
I think that's the million dollar question! For me, I've been practicing a lot of positive affirmations throughout the day and that has been so helpful❤
Hi Hellynn , do you mind to say what was your FSH and AFC day 3?
Hi there, I honestly had so many rounds of retrievals and it was different every time. My last record of FSH was around 10 and AFC ranged between 1 and 8. Very wide range.
Hello, Can you please explain why your doctors had you retreiving eggs back to back, rather than retrieve and then put it in that same month? Thank you so much for you answer
Hi! Happy to share. I want two children, and I'm 40 with an almost zero AMH. So in order to preserve my fertility, we froze as many embryos as we could before moving forward with a transfer.
Which hospital you do ivf please share me
Hi Helynn, i wouldnt recommend Rasberry leaf tea. Please google it. Dr.'s recommend it after 2nd trimester. People usually drink it for when their period was late!
Hi there! Thanks for your reco, I already take it! 🙂❤
Good luck ❤
Among all my pregnancies one missed miscarriage at 10w.and rest are chemical after recovery of first miscarriage. I take coq10, omega3, folic, iron , vit D. When can I expect healthy ovum? It's been 2 and a half months since starting.
Hi there, first I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I feel for you. To answer your question, all the experts seem to say at least 3 months or more for it to affect egg quality.
Hello! Thank you for sharing your videos. I am also diagnosed with DOR I am 30, my amh was 0.06 in april last year unfortunately it decreased to 0.02 in august i was so despair and unhappy at that time, I had only 1 foliculle, however after that i started to pay more attention to my diet, taking some supplements it increased to 0.08.
I also want to have babies. I hope it will increase again
Hi there love, I am so happy for you that it went up. Have you started IVF? I think getting back to back rounds of IVF stimulated my ovaries and although I only started with one egg my first cycle, I ended up seeing 8 follicles at one point later on.
I'm 43 yrs. My AMH is 0.06 now, but every time I tried, I get pregnant naturally. It ends up with three continuous miscarriages but I noticed that AMH is just a number. We still have hope!
@@yukikoi2389 I wish you the best❤ are you working on improving your egg quality?
@@hellynn_j thank you for replying to my comments, no I have not. My doctor said that if the amh is low there will not be quality folicules, so i would better to use donor egg 😪 I do not know what to do
@@dildoradavletova8124 No thats not true. There is research done that says low AMH does not equate to bad quality eggs. Just less eggs, less time. Please get a second opinion. Ive had doctors push DE on me before because it would serve their success rates, but I was not ready to give up on my own eggs. If you're not ready for that either, find a new doctor who is very experienced with DOR patients.

Plz take sunflower seeds 1 tbs n 1tbs seasme seeds after transfer ......
Oh, what are the benefits of those? First time hearing about it!
What was your protocol?
Please respond.
Thank you
Initially did mini IVF with Follitrope 150IU per day, for about ten days. Then we tried increasing our dosage in my third cycle to 225IU in the morning and 150 in the evening. We don't have set protocols but rather keep scanning and adjusting. Hope this helps!
Like many, I came across your video looking for information on supplements that help with egg quality-production. I am 42 and just recently suffered a miscarriage at 9wks & 6 days with a little miracle that was supposed to be impossible given IUD’s were my preferred method of birth control after my fraternal twins 15yrs ago.
The loss is incalculable and yet, a door I thought long closed years ago was just kicked in and as soon as I’m cleared by my OB i intend to start TTC.
I’m currently taking
Ubiquinone CoQ10 400mg twice daily
Vitamin D3
Vitamin C & Zinc combination
Folic Acid (although I may switch to Folate given I hear that’s better for the outcome we desire)
Omega 3
B12
Iron
&
I WAS taking the exact same prenatal as you from Whole Foods but when that runs out I definitely plan to try Theralogix’s version. I also take Nature Made CoQ10 but when that runs out I’ll try your version as well. I also plan to incorporate your suggestions of miyoinsositol, PQQ, & NAD+ with a daily dose of raspberry leaf tea .
Your video has been so much more informative than many I’ve watched so THANK YOU. I pray to the almighty that both our families are blessed with the brightest futures full of the growth (with beautiful bundles of joy) we so genuinely desire . Definitely gonna like and subscribe.
Keep up the great work.
Could you please suggest which is better fresh embryo transfer or frozen embryo transfer?
Everyone's situation is different, but overall it seems that doctors recommend frozen transfer so they can take the time to prepare the uterus for implantation.
Thanks for replying
