    List of vitamins for men/women TTC

    Hiya

    Does anyone know the best TTC vitamins for men & women? The only one for men that's come up is Menevit? Is there any other better ones?

    We are swaying for a girl, so I will need to take magnesium, calcium & cranberry.

    I have also read we both should take vitamin C, and folic acid (400mg / day)

    I just don't want to have to take 5 different tablets each day (if it comes to that I will obviously do it) but is there something that has a bit of everything in it?

    Hope this makes sense lol

    Hi

    I dont know whats 'good' and whats not, but I dont think there are a huge amount of mens vitamins for TTC out there. Menevit would be one of the most common. Also the womens form of this is Elevit....have you checked that out? It would have most of the recommended vitamins for TTC.

    HTH and hoping your TTC journey is short

    An alternative to the Elevit is the Blackmores Pregnancy and Breasfeeding Gold. I've used each at different stages of our TTC journey. Either will have all the folic acid you require.

    I also take a good quality fish oil (good for you even if you're not TTC), CoQ10 and a probiotic.
