Melatonin may support egg health, but one of the biggest mistakes is taking it without understanding the dose and timing. Egg development happens over months, so if melatonin is used, it needs to fit within the bigger IVF preparation window.

In this episode, I explain how timing can influence fertility support. Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gvREARb6ZZ8

Melatonin does far more than support sleep. In fertility research, it is recognised as a strong antioxidant that may help protect egg cells from oxidative stress and support mitochondrial energy during maturation.

This can be particularly relevant for women with low ovarian reserve, poor embryo development, or those preparing for IVF. Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gvREARb6ZZ8

Melatonin is not just about sleep. In fertility research, it is being explored for its role in protecting egg cells from oxidative stress and supporting mitochondrial energy, especially in women with low AMH or preparing for IVF.

In this new episode, I explain where melatonin may fit, who may benefit, and why supplement timing matters.

For women with PCOS, Myo-inositol is often discussed as a supplement that may support insulin balance, ovulation, and fertility. It is frequently compared with Metformin because both can influence metabolic pathways linked to reproductive hormones.

In this new YouTube episode, I explain how it works and when it may be useful in fertility preparation. Watch here: https://youtu.be/HkQ1dCct9Bk

April can still bring fresh starts, even if the journey feels heavy.
A little more courage for another IVF cycle.
A little more strength in the waiting.
A few lighter moments.
A little more hope that stays.

Preparing for IVF is not only about supplements. Food also plays an important role in supporting egg health during the months before treatment.

Salmon provides omega 3 fats, eggs provide choline and protein, berries supply antioxidants, avocado offers healthy fats, pumpkin seeds contribute zinc and magnesium, and leafy greens provide folate for DNA support.

These simple foods help build a stronger nutritional foundation before your next cycle.

Many women are told their glucose is normal, yet their insulin levels are never checked properly. This matters because insulin can influence hormone balance, ovulation, egg health, embryo development, and implantation long before glucose becomes abnormal.

In this new YouTube episode, I explain why testing insulin levels may uncover an important missing piece in fertility care. Watch here: https://youtu.be/HkQ1dCct9Bk

IVF can feel overwhelming when you are doing everything you can, yet still not getting clear answers. Our Two-Phase IVF Nutrition Audit is designed to help identify nutrition gaps that may be influencing egg health, fertilisation, embryo development, and implantation.

In Phase 1, we review your blood work, supplement regimen, fertility history, and lifestyle factors. In Phase 2, you receive a personalised nutrition plan tailored to your stage of IVF.

This gives you a clearer direction before your next cycle. Click to learn more: https://catherinechong.com.au/discoverycall/

Preparing for IVF often means focusing on scans, medications, and timelines, but blood work can reveal important clues that are often missed.

Our free IVF Prep Lab Checklist outlines the key tests worth reviewing before your next cycle, covering nutrients, hormones, genetics, and microbiome markers that may influence egg health, embryo development, and implantation.

Many women preparing for IVF are told their glucose looks normal, yet silent insulin resistance may still be affecting egg quality, embryo development, and implantation behind the scenes. This happens when the body keeps blood sugar normal by making extra insulin, and standard tests often miss it.

In this new YouTube episode, I explain why this matters for IVF success and what signs to look for earlier. Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/HkQ1dCct9Bk
