OvaGold
Yes! You should take OvaGold AND a prenatal multivitamin as you prepare for fertility treatments or pregnancy so that you are meeting the commonly recommended supplement requirements for preconception and pregnancy.
OvaGold has been specifically designed by fertility nutrition professionals so that it will fit together perfectly without double ups in nutrients like folate, vitamin D, zinc or selenium that can occur when taking other fertility supporting supplements alongside your prenatal.Your prenatal multivitamin is there to support your anticipated increased nutrient needs in pregnancy - nutrients like folate, iodine, zinc, selenium, B group vitamins, choline & vitamin D. And OvaGold is there to optimise your reproductive & fertility health - OvaGold is thinking about the optimal health of your egg before conception.
We recommend taking OvaGold for a minimum of 3 months for maximum benefits.
Why? Well it takes about 90-120 days for your egg to go from primordial follicle (science for teeny egg) to dominant follicle (science for the egg is about to drop and maybe become half of your baby!), and in that time the fluid bubble your egg is sitting in (that’s the follicular fluid) is pretty important.
That’s where OvaGold steps in to provide nourishment. You want it to be rich in antioxidants - like the CoQ10, Vitamin E & C that you’ll find inside OvaGold. And you want your egg to emerge totally energised which is why we included Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride (NRC), a precursor to NAD+ which helps your cells to produce energy and develop properly.
OvaGold is not a prenatal multivitamin which means you don’t need it anymore once you’ve conceived, so you should discontinue use once pregnancy is confirmed. It is safe to take in the two week wait for those undergoing fertility treatments like ovulation induction, IUI or IVF. Always consult your health care professional for individualised advice.
No, OvaGold has no known interactions with commonly used medications used in fertility treatments. However, you should NOT take OvaGold if you’re taking warfarin unless you have explicit individual clearance from your medical professional to do so. Always consult with your health care professional for individual advice if you have any concerns.
We recommend taking OvaGold with a meal that contains a source of healthy fats like avocado, olives, extra virgin olive oil, nuts, seeds or fatty fish like salmon, ocean trout, mackerel, sardines or anchovies.This is to maximise the absorption of the fat-soluble nutrients; CoQ10 & Vitamin E.
You do not need to keep OvaGold in the fridge. OvaGold should be kept under 25 degrees celsius, and should remain sealed in a cool & dry spot in your home, near your steamy shower isn’t the best spot! Try your bedside table or inside your pantry.

Manufacturing
OvaGold is produced in Sydney, Australia. It is important to us to be both Australian-owned & made.
OvaGold was formulated by two fertility nutrition professionals, Stefanie Valakas - certified fertility dietitian & nutritionist and Monique Cormack - fertility nutritionist. They combined their 10+ years of clinical experience to design a fertility supplement with all the ingredients they’ve been using for years individually.
They wanted more people trying to conceive to have access to top-quality formulations without the script or price of an appointment. And also cut down the number of capsules (and cost) to make life a little bit easier when trying to conceive.
