Episode notes
Check AMH Before Deciding Next Steps
- Get an AMH test to decide if another IVF attempt at 41 makes sense based on ovarian reserve.
- Consider IVF before IUI and discuss sperm quality and clinic practices before deciding to try again.
Use Supportive Therapies To Boost Egg Quality
- Try supplements and adjuncts to support egg quality such as NAD boosters, HGH, peptides, and red light therapy.
- Discuss these options with your doctor as part of an individualized plan before repeating retrievals.
NAD Use During Pregnancy And Breastfeeding
- Stop NAD supplements around seven weeks of pregnancy if nausea makes pill-taking undesirable, but continuing during breastfeeding is reasonable.
- Discuss NAD use with your physician since clinical pregnancy data remain limited.
