What is PROFERTIL female?
PROFERTILfemale is a study-tested “fertility pill” to increase female fertility. Taking PROFERTIL female contributes to a regular menstrual cycle with ovulation. The woman’s body is then optimally prepared for the upcoming pregnancy.
For whom is PROFERTIL female suitable?
PROFERTIL female is basically suitable for all women who want to have children- with or without PCO syndrome. Especially from the age of 30, the intake of pure folic acid is often no longer sufficient to cover the increased nutrient requirements for fertility.
Can PROFERTIL female be taken as part of IVF treatment?
PROFERTILfemale should be taken in preparation for or during IVF treatment to increase the chances of a successful pregnancy.
How does PROFERTIL female work?
PROFERTIL female is believed to protect the ovaries from oxidative stress. The resulting positive effect on female fertility has been shown in the results of several clinical studies.
Are there studies on the effectiveness of PROFERTIL female?
The effectiveness of the PROFERTILfemale formulation has been confirmed in several clinical studies. A supportive effect on cycle regularity, ovulation as well as the thickness of the uterine lining (endometrium) could be shown. In addition, an improvement in AMH levels was demonstrated. PROFERTIL female can therefore increase the probability of successful conception.
How do I notice the effect of PROFERTIL female?
You can monitor your cycle yourself relatively easily with the help of a cycle calendar and determine whether it is regular. PROFERTILfemale can help women with an irregular cycle to have a more regular cycle. This supportive effect has also been proven in a clinical study.
In addition, an appointment with your gynecologist allows you to assess the thickness of the endometrium (= thickness of the lining of the uterus) by ultrasound. Clinical data on PROFERTILfemale show that regular use can improve endometrial thickness. This is an important prerequisite for a later, successful implantation of the fertilized egg.
How is PROFERTIL female used?
It is recommended to take PROFERTILfemale from the time you wish to have a child until the pregnancy is confirmed. One tablet should be taken daily together with one soft capsule with some liquid with or after a meal.
Do I have to take the tablet and soft capsule at the same time?
The tablet should ideally always be taken together with the soft capsule. The intended daily dose should be adhered to.
Should I continue to take PROFERTIL female if I am already pregnant?
PROFERTILfemale supports female fertility, but is not a pregnancy vitamin. It should therefore only be taken until pregnancy has been confirmed. During pregnancy, a woman’s nutritional needs change and for this reason other preparations should be used.
However, this also means that there is nothing to be said against using up the remaining pack as soon as the pregnancy is known (or suspected). Since PROFERTILfemale is a “fertility pill”, you should subsequently switch to a pregnancy vitamin. This means changing to a product that optimally covers the specific nutrient requirements during pregnancy. Please consult your trusted doctor about this.
How long should PROFERTIL be taken?
This is very individual from woman to woman and depending on the initial situation (e.g. combined intake with hormones in the context of IVF treatment). In the clinical studies, a significant improvement of typical fertility parameters was observed after 3 months in the case of taking PROFERTILfemale alone. In principle, PROFERTIL female can and should be taken until the pregnancy is confirmed.
What should I do if I forget to take PROFERTIL female?
If you forget to take PROFERTILfemale, please make up for it by the next possible time. However, do not take twice the amount of PROFERTIL female if you have forgotten to take it before. The daily dosage of one tablet and one soft capsule should not be exceeded.
What happens if I forget to take PROFERTIL female for a few days?
Continue to take PROFERTILfemale as usual. If you stop taking PROFERTIL female for a long time, the effect may be reduced.

In principle, there is therefore no contraindication, as no iodine is supplemented in the composition of PROFERTIL female. PROFERTIL female can thus be taken as a supportive measure in cases of fertility and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

In any case, consultation with your doctor is recommended.

The consumption of 800mg EGCG per day should not be exceeded, should not be consumed by pregnant or breastfeeding women and children below 18 years old, should not be consumed if other green tea products are consumed on the same day, should not be consumed on an empty stomach.
