Coenzyme Q10 or CoQ10 and fertility
- Co-enzyme is an antioxidant that may help improve sperm function.
- Men who have more Q10 coenzyme in semen have better sperm motility.
- But in a 2013 study, there was no correlation between coenzyme Q10 and increased pregnancy rates, or births born alive.
- In a 2017 study in IVF patients that coenzyme found in the follicles improved the quality and number of eggs and increased the incidence of pregnancy. The results are promising, but still few.
Vitamin E and its relationship to fertility
- Like vitamin C, vitamin E is an antioxidant. Because oxidative stress is one of the things that can impair fertility, it is necessary to pay attention to antioxidants for fertility.
- For best results vitamin E is taken with selenium.
- Although studies have not found a direct relationship between vitamin E and increased pregnancy rates, antioxidants are very important.
Iron and its relationship to fertility
- Iron is an important element of the blood, and its deficiency leads to a lack of fertility in both men and women.
- Iron is usually obtained from animal protein, but also from beans, lentils, spinach, as well as fortified grains.
- But you should know that not everyone is iron deficient, and too many iron supplements can cause constipation.
Omega-3 amino acids and their relationship to fertility
- Omega-3 amino acids are important antioxidants for heart and mind health. Omega-3s, especially docosahexaenoic acids (DHA), also reduce sperm DNA damage.
- Omega-3, which is found in fish and fish oil, is beneficial for the mother and fetus during pregnancy, but there is no study that confirms the link between it and pregnancy.
The relationship of selenium to fertility
- Selenium is a vital element that plays an important role in thyroid functions, DNA synthesis, protection against oxidative potential, as well as the process of reproduction.
- Brazil nuts have a very high selenium content.
- Other sources of selenium are tuna, sardines, and shrimp.
- Not eating enough selenium may increase the risk of a defect in the luteal phase (that is, the post-ovulation phase of the menstrual cycle).
- One small study showed a positive effect on ovulation health in a group of infertile women who took selenium and vitamin E supplements. But it is unclear exactly what effect selenium does.
- Also in a small 2017 study of a group of men with impaired sperm motility. After taking selenium supplements, sperm count increased dramatically, as well as their mobility, survival, and normal morphology.
