| Has anyone read and followed the guidelines from “It Starts with the Egg” and had success?? Tell us about it! |
| I read it followed the guidelines but no success. |
Same. Once eggs are bad, they’re bad. Maybe lifestyle can impact health enough to make good eggs stick. But there’s no reversing the hands of time. |
|
I've read the book and am taking the supplements. I did get pregnant quickly recently but miscarried early on. I know someone else who followed the book to a tee after a miscarriage and was successful though.
I was doing well initially but reverted back to the plastics and other environmental stuff. |
PP here. Forgot to add two things. First, the supplements lengthened my luteal phase from 10 to 13 days. I also know another woman whose AMH increased after taking CoQ10. We're all over 37, by the way. |
| I didn't follow the book exactly - I did take CoQ10 religiously for 3 months and got my first PGS normals at 40 after 3 cycles with no PGS normals. I also tried to eat healthy but who knows. |
|
I did. Hit or miss but I had one cycle Of IVF work where the odds were stacked against me but I had one PGS normal egg. It led to a chemical though.
Otherwise the book made me pretty psycho and I spent a ton trying to clean out anything hazardous I used. It wasn’t worth it. |
| Tried the plan (not everything) with a history of 3 miscarriages. I didn’t do everything but I did do the CoQ10 and some mild lifestyle/diet changes. Got pregnant naturally with twins and they were born healthy. I also did some fertility awareness stuff along the lines of Taking Charge of Your Fertility and suspected and confirmed low progesterone that way. |
