Great topic! Here's what helped me during my IVF prep:Nutrition:

  • Focus on protein-rich foods (eggs, fish, lean meat, legumes)
  • Plenty of leafy greens and colorful veggies for folate
  • Healthy fats like avocado, nuts, and olive oil
  • Stay hydrated - aim for 8-10 glasses of water daily
  • Cut back on caffeine and avoid alcohol completely

Lifestyle Tips:

  • Start prenatal vitamins with folic acid at least 3 months before
  • Add CoQ10 and Vitamin D (check with your doctor first)
  • Gentle exercise like walking or yoga - nothing too intense
  • Prioritize sleep - aim for 7-8 hours nightly
  • Reduce stress through meditation or therapy

What to Avoid:

  • Processed foods and excess sugar
  • Raw fish, unpasteurized cheese
  • Smoking (obviously!)
  • Hot baths and saunas

My clinic also recommended acupuncture which I found relaxing, though results vary. The key is starting these changes 3-4 months before your cycle if possible.Good luck to everyone preparing! Your body is doing amazing things. 💙For More information - Best ivf doctor in jaipur
