Optimising Your Fertility Naturally with Functional Medicine

Looking at all aspects of your health, including diet, stress, sleep, lifestyle, supplement support and of course hormones, often reveals the underlying problems affecting your ability to concieve naturally.

The Science – Ubiquinol and female fertility

The importance of oxidative stress in various conditions linked to female infertility, including pituitary disorders, PCOS and endometriosis, suggesting the possible clinical usefulness of Ubiquinol.8,9

  • Coenzyme Q10 or Ubiquinol is an essential part of the cell energy-producing system of mitochondria. However, it is also a powerful lipophilic antioxidant, which may help reduce autooxidation of lipoproteins and cell membranes.9

  • CoQ10 supplementation may support ovarian reserve by helping to reduce mitochondrial ovarian ageing and physiological programmed ovarian ageing.10

Ubiquinol protects ovarian reserve: Ubiquinol may counteract mitochondrial ovarian ageing.

Ubiquinol is a powerful antioxidant protecting oocytes from oxidative stress: Ubiquinol is a powerful lipophilic antioxidant.

The Science – Ubiquinol and male fertility

Ubiquinol is one of the most potent antioxidants our body produces and helps protect cells, from the oxidative damage caused by free radicals and ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species).11,12

  • Ubiquinol is important in maintaining the health, motility and production of sperm6,13

  • Supplementation of Ubiquinol has been shown to improve sperm density and motility and improving male fertility.6,8

  • Sperm cell mitochondria have high concentrations of Ubiquinol, playing an integral role for energy production, the production of ATP.8

  • Healthy sperm count and motility have been co-related with healthy ubiquinol levels.14

Ubiquinol supports energy to power sperm: supporting motility and the ability of the sperm to reach the egg for fertilisation.

Ubiquinol is a powerful antioxidant helping to protect sperm cells from oxidative damage: Ubiquinol is the form of CoQ10 capable of neutralising ROS attack on the mitochondria and therefore helps protect this important cellular structure from damage.

Multiple studies on the effects of Ubiquinol on sperm health parameters have shown a positive influence on sperm concentration, morphology, and motility.\
