Fertility Support Supplements
Fertility support supplements may contain folic acid, prenatal vitamins, zinc, selenium, coenzyme Q10, inositol or selected antioxidants. Formulas differ widely and may be developed for women, men or couples preparing for pregnancy.
Compare the ingredients and amounts rather than relying on promises to increase fertility or guarantee conception. The American Society for Reproductive Medicine states that evidence is insufficient to show that a specific diet or particular nutrient improves natural fertility, although folic acid is recommended before pregnancy because it reduces the risk of neural-tube defects. People trying to conceive should review supplements and medicines with a qualified healthcare professional, especially when fertility problems have been identified.
