What supplements should my sister take after IUI? (Ask the Egg Whisperer)

In a recent Ask The Egg Whisperer Episode, Khan wrote in to ask, “My sister is doing an IUI, what supplements and medicine should she take?” I love this question, especially because it's coming from a sister of a fertility patient. What I'm noticing now more than ever is how people are talking more with their families about what they're going through and even better, family members are listening and being helpful! They're on the journey with my patients. I have always advocated for finding a "fertility friend." A fertility friend is someone to talk to that will listen to you and help you advocate for yourself during your journey. I think it's great that someone's sister is messaging me asking about what her sister can do to have a better chance. I recommend talking to your doctor about progesterone supplementation. I discuss this with my patients and use it in almost all my IUI cycles. She can also use the @proovtest to see if she really needs it if her doc doesn't agree with this plan. I also recommend a good prenatal vitamin like the one made by @natalist, coq10, fish oil and vitamin D if it's low.
