Male & Female Supplement Protocol Card

Evidence-based supplements with doses, timing, and trusted brands

Female Fertility Supplements

Supplement	Dose	Timing	Notes
Folate (methylfolate)	800 mcg/day	3+ months before conception	Avoid folic acid if MTHFR+
CoQ10 (ubiquinol)	200-600 mg/day	With fatty meal	Supports egg quality; 3-6 months for effect

Male Fertility Supplements

Supplement	Dose	Timing	Notes
CoQ10 (ubiquinol)	200-400 mg/day	With fatty meal	Improves motility and morphology
Zinc	25-50 mg/day	With food	Critical for testosterone and sperm production

Timing Matters

Start supplements at least 3 months before trying to conceive. Sperm take ~74 days to mature, and egg quality improvements need similar lead time.

Before You Buy

Start at least 3 months before trying to conceive. Discuss all supplements with your doctor, especially if you take medications. Look for third-party tested brands (NSF, USP, or ConsumerLab verified).
