What supplements are recommended when trying to conceive at an advanced maternal age?

Trying to Conceive10 views
When trying to conceive at an advanced maternal age, a balanced diet is the foundation. Folic acid, 400 to 800 micrograms per day, may be considered to help prevent fetal neural tube defects. Vitamin D supports calcium absorption and may support egg quality. Omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil, may help ovarian function. Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant that may support mitochondrial function and have a positive effect on egg quality. Inositol may improve insulin sensitivity, especially in patients with PCOS. Supplements should be taken under medical guidance to avoid excess intake. Individual needs vary by age and health status, so consult a reproductive medicine specialist.
