[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to hear what’s on your cocktail list from CCRM (supplements and doseages).[/quote]

Same here.  Could you post?[/quote]

COQ10- 400mg twice a day
L-Arginine 1000mg twice a day
Vitamin C 500mg once a day 
DHA 1000mg once a day
Vitamin E  400IU once a day
Melatonin 3mg at bedtime
Pycnogenol 100mg twice daily
DHEA 25 three times a day
Myo-inositol 750mg 3 tabs/twice a day

I don't take all of these because my testing isn't complete yet so my RE doesn't know my situation and what I need yet but I am doing the C, E, DHA, and COQ10 (400MG/DAY of ubiquinol.  I'll know more soon about what else I will need to take.  [/quote]

It takes about 90 days to see the effect of supplements on your egg quality.

Please stay away from L-Arginine folks.  And honestly be careful with this cocktail list.  It is specifically for people with DOR I believe.  With the exception of the vitamins and CoQ10 I would be very careful with taking these other items unless you are being followed by an RE who recommends the entire list of treatments.  As someone who was where many of you are years ago, I found this same list and took l-arginine along with ubiquinol.  L-arginine really messed up my cycle.  I know for a fact it did because I did IVF that cycle (90 days later) and had high fragmentation which I did not have in any previous cycles.  Fragmentation typically doesn't change cycle to cycle unless something is impacting it.  I subsequently read the chapter in It starts with the egg about L-arginine and l wouldn't you know, it had the same effect on me as the book mentioned.  Mind you I was not DOR so that may have also played a significant part.  Please just be careful about trying things.  [/quote]
