And not that my cycle is starting, am really thinking that I need to make sure I get enough protein. But I was wondering how much. Started looking around on the web and found this page which says that 60-70 grams of protein is needed as protein intake during IVF. That is a lot! I saw the same 60 gram figure on one of the fertility chat boards. And this fertility diet page says 45-60 grams of protein per day is recommended for boosting fertility on general principles.
So time to make sure I get enough protein. And esp. for us fibroid shrinkers, it's not like we want to go eat a steak. I'm supplementing with pure brown rice protein powder
For further reference a chat board thread on protein and IVF egg quality.
Time to feed those eggies!
