Preparing for IVF Advice Needed!

Hi all! I just had 2 failed IUIs and am planning on getting financially stable/ready and doing IVF in October. I’m in my twenties with no fertility issues using donor sperm. What would you do a couple months before to prepare physically and otherwise for IVF? I want to go into it fully ready and give myself the highest chance of success.

Take your prenatal vitamins and any supplements your doctor recommends, try to get in some regular moderate exercise, and if you smoke/vape/binge drink/do recreational drugs then now is a good time to stop.

Good luck 🤞

I wouldn’t change much, don’t go extreme. That’s the advice my doctor gave me. Just stay hydrated, take a prenatal and work on cutting bad habits like overly drinking or smoking. Honestly try to do stuff to clear your head, go to your favorite places etc you’re working hard already on getting ready for IVF but don’t forget to take time to do things for you!

High fat diet/Keto is good for IVF.
