DH and Vitamins when TTC

Question

Will it help to conceive if your DH takes some sort of vitamin supplement like a One-A-Day multivitamin? Thanks for any answers

Answer 1

It certainly won't hurt. It's a good idea to get him in the habit anyway. It will also help for him to avoid alcohol or at least cut back if he drinks.

Answer 2

Taking a daily vitamin, especially a men's vitamin can help. He gets a new batch of swimmers basically daily and eating healthy, vitamins, sleep, cut back on alcohol, smoking can all help.

I have mine take his when I take my prenatals as a show of teamwork or support. I think it's a good way to show him how much a woman goes through.

Answer 3

Unfortunately, it won't help you conceive. I asked the nurse practitioner at my RE's office if my husband should be taking a multivitamin and she said that since vitamins and supplements do not require any approval from the FDA, there is no way to know if what they claim is in the vitamin is actually in there.
