and we aren't even really old yet. This is the cocktail of supplements that are recommended for the boys.
After about 7 weeks of taking these supplements, our last IUI had much improved numbers, so it would seem as if it's working.
If this is what it takes to help increase our numbers, I guess this is what we put ourselves through. 14 pills in the morning and 14 pills in the evening.
Each of these little pills is supposed to do something.
Arginine—Take 4 gr daily. Needed to produce sperm. If the sperm count is below 10 million per ml, arginine probably will not provide any benefit.
Coenzyme Q10—Take 10 mg daily. Increases sperm count and motility.
Flaxseed oil—Take 1 tbsp daily. Is a source of essential fatty acids.
L-carnitine—Take 3-4 grams daily. Required for normal sperm function.
Multivitamin-mineral—Buy a high-quality product and take one serving size (differs from brand to brand).
Selenium—Take 200 mcg daily. Improves sperm motility.
Vitamin B-12—Take 1000 mcg daily. A B-12 deficiency reduces sperm motility and sperm count. Even if no deficiency exists, B-12 supplementation may help men with a sperm count of less than 20 million per milliliter or a motility rate of less than 50%
Vitamin C—Take 500 mg 2 times daily. Is an antioxidant.
Vitamin E—Take 400 IUs 2 times daily. Is an antioxidant and improves sperms’ ability to impregnate.
Zinc—Take 15 mg 2 times daily. Required for a healthy male reproductive system and sperm production.
Arginine—Take 4 gr daily. Needed to produce sperm. If the sperm count is below 10 million per ml, arginine probably will not provide any benefit.
Coenzyme Q10—Take 10 mg daily. Increases sperm count and motility.
Flaxseed oil—Take 1 tbsp daily. Is a source of essential fatty acids.
L-carnitine—Take 3-4 grams daily. Required for normal sperm function.

A friend of mine who was recently diagnosed with a seizure disorder and I were comparing pills the other day.
She's 25.. I'm 31. We both have the exact same pill containers you have.
(For the record, I won. But looks like I'm getting the Silver compared to you guys.)
