12 Supplements to Boost Fertility

1 in 5 women experience infertility. These fertility problems come from a variety of causes and one of those is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS.) Once you know the source of your fertility problems, improving your chances of getting pregnant using natural methods is often possible! If you’re a Cyster living with PCOS, your fertility can get a big boost using intentional, researched-backed vitamins and minerals. 

With the support of the right nutrients, you can improve egg quality, ovulation, sex hormone balance, period regularity, and more. However, we all know that even with a balanced diet getting all the right vitamins is super difficult! That’s why quality supplements can make all the difference to get you to your goals and fulfill your dream of becoming a mom. 

From the bottom of my heart, I want that for all of you! So, today, I am sharing a round-up of supplements that can help you significantly improve your reproductive health. Here’s what you should consider…

12 Supplements to Boost Fertility 

1. Ovasitol 

I’m going to start with my favorite (and soon to be your favorite) supplement to improve PCOS symptoms including infertility. In a study that compared supplements inositol and berberine and PCOS medication metformin, inositol (AKA Ovasitol) performed by far the best. This means a natural supplement was shown to be more effective than a prescription medication. That’s great news for you! That means healing with no side effects. 

It improves fertility by reducing insulin resistance, regulating the menstrual cycle, balancing hormones important for ovulation, and bettering egg quality. Ovasitol can also help with other PCOS symptoms, and that overall health improvement can relieve stress and strain on the mind and body, which is also good for conception. 

You can get Ovasitol from Ovafit in a convenient, flavorless powder that makes getting your daily dose super easy. My supplement line is NSF-certified and my Ovasitol is dye-free, additive-free, gluten-free, and vegan. It includes everything you need without compromising your diet goals! 

Plus, when you download The Cysterhood app, you’ll find dozens of healthy recipes that use Ovasitol! You can basically make getting your daily supplements a treat, which I am ALL ABOUT. How does a Ferrero Rocher Protein Smoothie sound? What about a Hibiscus Blackberry Virgin Margarita? Or Strawberry Cheesecake Popsicles? If any of these sound delicious to you, join The Cysterhood and download that app! 

2. CoQ10

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) actually supports fertility in both males and females! Right now, we’re talking about my Cysters, but know that it can help your partner too. For female reproductive health, CoQ10 can improve egg quality, improve ovulation, reduce oxidative stress, lower blood pressure, regulate insulin levels, increase good cholesterol, and balance sex hormones. CoQ10 can be a total game changer for couples experiencing infertility! 

Because it’s so helpful for reproductive health, I include CoQ10 in my Metabolism Plus bundle. I made sure to include VESIsorb, which is patented tech that makes CoQ10 way more bioavailable. In fact, it increases the absorption of CoQ10 by 300%-600%! 

3. Multivitamin/Prenatal Vitamin 

Every woman should be on a good prenatal vitamin/multivitamin. Really, they function the same way, because they’re both packed with essential vitamins and minerals to support a healthy pregnancy, which means it also supports a healthy female body! Plus, a multivitamin is an easy way to get a good chunk of the necessary nutrients without needing three dozen different supplement bottles in your medicine cabinet! 

A high-quality multivitamin will help your body get total support. Premium supplements should be NSF-certified, which means they’ve been independently tested against the National Sanitation Foundation’s strict standard for safety and quality. It also means that the supplements and production of the supplements are regularly re-tested for consistency. 

So, is MuliMeta NSF-certified? OF COURSE! All of Ovafit’s supplements are NSF-certified as a minimum, with other supplements in the line carrying additional certifications. My goal is to have the BEST supplements for Cysters, so you don’t have to spend hours shopping for good products that contain the nutrients you need for your unique condition. For PCOS supplements that have been third party tested and carefully selected to fill nutrient gaps, check our Metabolism Plus bundle.

4. Omega-3

Even if you’re pretty new to the supplement world, you probably know that omega-3 fatty acids are a must! Omega-3 is used by almost every cell of the body, but it’s not naturally occurring and unless you’re eating a LOT of fish, you’re probably not getting enough omega-3. With a nutrient so widely used in the body, it makes sense that omega-3 would be helpful for ovulation and other PCOS symptoms. 

Omega-3 can help regulate sex hormones, increase blood flow to the uterus, reduce inflammation, and support implantation and effective ovulation. As you might have guessed, omega-3 is in my Metabolism Plus bundle. I use the highest quality omega-3 fish oil that’s third party tested and certified by both NSF and IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards.) It’s the best of the best! 

5. Vitamin D

It’s not uncommon for women with PCOS to have low levels of vitamin D. Research shows that supplementation of vitamin D can improve chances of conceiving and carrying successfully with both natural conception and IVF. It can also help with regulating periods, which is good for tracking ovulation and successful conception! Vitamin D can do more for women with PCOS too, so we included it in my MetaMulti, which is the multivitamin included in the Metabolism Plus bundle! 

6. Vitamin B           

B vitamins support our bodies in so many ways!!! You’ll find plenty of it in my MetaMulti supplement, because it’s great for fertility and overall wellness. Here’s what you can expect from some of the big Bs:

• Vitamin B12 – Can improve reproductive organ functioning, reduce oxidative stress, lower inflammation, and promote healthy homocysteine levels (amino acids important to egg quality.)  
• Vitamins B6 – Can improve sex hormone balance and strengthen your uterine lining to improve your chances of getting pregnant. 
• Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) – Can help with regulating the menstrual cycle, maintaining sex hormone levels, and improving follicular development. However, it’s not just helpful for fertility, but folic acid is essential in pregnancy to produce red blood cells that help your baby’s brain and spinal cord form. 

7. Vitamin C

Vitamin C (AKA ascorbic acid) is another one of those alphabet vitamins in the MetaMulti supplements that’s essential for overall health, but has specific fertility benefits. Vitamin C can help regulate hormone balance, enhance egg quality, protect against oxidative stress, and improve the chances of conception. 

8. Iron

Iron has been shown in studies to have a big effect on female fertility. The research states that women who took a multivitamin (like the MetaMulti) with iron have a much lower chance of experiencing infertility than women who didn’t. Iron is thought to have this effect because it helps with the product of red blood cells, menstrual regularity, preventing anemia, and improving egg quality. 

9. Zinc

Zinc can increase fertility by balancing testosterone, improving egg quality, inducing egg activation, managing blood sugar levels, developing a strong immune system, and optimizing other aspects of the reproductive process. All are important for conception and healthy pregnancy! I have zinc in our MetaMulti, of course, because of these PCOS benefits and more!

10. Magnesium 

Magnesium can help relieve stress, inflammation, insulin resistance, and hormonal imbalances, which can all have an indirect effect on fertility! The better your overall health, the better your chances of conception and health pregnancy period. Magnesium is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies, and that’s especially true in women with PCOS, so this one is a must for any supplement routine! Here’s more on magnesium and PCOS. 

11. Curcumin

Curcumin is the bright yellow pigment found in turmeric (yes, the stuff that stains your clothes.) It can help with a lot of PCOS symptoms, including fertility! Research shows curcumin can help with inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, improved egg quality, sex hormone balance, lipid profile balance, ovulation, and more! 

In my Metabolism Plus bundle, I also include curcumin, of course! (With that many fertility benefits, it’s definitely an essential.) Like CoQ10, I use a formula of curcumin that ensures you get 100% absorption of the supplements that means more benefits and a better bang for your buck. Win win! 

These vitamins and minerals can help you boost fertility! 

Infertility is one of the most difficult PCOS symptoms any Cyster can face. There are lots of things out there that can help and using natural methods to support your healing can be a great way to increase your chances of conception and improve your overall health. A balanced diet, regular exercise, good sleep, and the right supplements can make all the difference!
