No, you don't need to be undergoing IVF to take Time to Conceive® For Women, it's designed for anyone trying to conceive, spontaneously or through fertility treatment.
We’re incredibly proud that 38+ IVF clinics (and counting) currently recommend Time to Conceive® For Women to their patients, largely because they recognise the evidence behind our product, its quality and the standard that we hold ourselves to.
Part of why IVF doctors recommend Time to Conceive® For Women is because our formula is based on a comprehensive analysis of relevant medical research with studies confirmed by multiple different groups involving real patients. We translated these 550+ clinical studies into the formula we have today, which includes the most optimal and bioavailable form of nutrients and required doses. This allowed our core team of doctors and scientists to select the nutrients with the highest quality evidence in support of their beneficial impact on fertility outcomes. Whilst the focus of the research was on improving fertility outcomes, we also considered any particular fertility benefit for those with PMOS and Endometriosis. We also ensured that all the nutrients are recognised as safe in early pregnancy.
We encourage you to compare the Time to Conceive® For Women supplement label to others on the market and check what is included (full list of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants), the doses, and the quality of the nutrients.

All Ingredients
Time to Conceive® For Women uses MicroActive® CoQ10, chosen for how efficiently it's absorbed rather than how much is on the label. CoQ10 helps fuel the energy eggs need to mature, which is why the form you take it in matters. Our patented MicroActive® CoQ10 is around 3.7 times more bioavailable than standard crystalline CoQ10, so 200mg of it is equivalent to, or better than, a 600mg dose of a standard formulation. Rather than pushing the dose up, we focused on absorption, so you get the same or better result from a smaller, more efficient amount.
Free from all allergens, artificial colourings, preservatives and flavourings. Just premium nutrients as recommended by fertility experts in handy daily capsules - nothing else.

Who is this for:
This is a preconception supplement formulated for anyone trying to conceive. Including if you’re struggling to conceive, have had recurrent miscarriages, have PMOS, irregular ovulation or Endometriosis, you're preparing for or you're in the midst of IVF or IUI treatment.If you're trying with a male partner, Time to Conceive® For Men is formulated to support sperm health in the same way this supports egg health. Time to Carry® prenatal is formulated to support nutritional needs during pregnancy.
The importance of 3 months:
Eggs take around 90 days to fully mature, so we'd recommend starting at least 3 months before you start trying. Preparing for IVF, start 3 to 4 months before your cycle and continue through egg collection and transfer until you get a positive result. If preparing for egg freezing, aim for 4 to 6 months beforehand.
How to take it:
We recommend you take your three daily capsules after food, ideally spread over the course of the day, however, it is possible to take all three daily capsules at once. Please remember that routine is key with supplements. While missing a day or two won’t have a big impact, taking it consistently will ensure the best possible results.
Backed by 550+ clinical studies and independently recommended by 38+ (and counting) IVF clinics across the UK.

I took Ovum time to conceive for two months in a row (first one was gifted), paused for a few weeks and then Started on the third bottle and barely halfway through it, I found out I was pregnant. I’ve had a series of recurrent miscarriages so really hopeful that this one sticks! Also, I found that the capsules were easy to swallow and it did not have a weird smell or taste.
Hi there,
Thank you for sharing this, and we're really sorry to hear of your losses. Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Time to Conceive® for Women!
Wishing you all of the best,
The OVUM Team x
We prayed, we hoped. I was already on my weight loss journey, and just after we had seen a fertility specialist and were at the brink of giving up after close to one and a half years of trying after mirena removal, I started researching what helped others. That's when I learned about CoQ10, and it landed me here. I found out I'm pregnant after finishing the first bottle of Ovum and halfway through my second one. My periods had become so light prior to this, and with the first bottle, I noticed a change already. I had tried other supplements like Pregnacare, but nothing seemed to help. I am writing this because someone else's review here with a similar issue led me to try it, and now I am hoping I can help someone else. I paired this with the highest-strength Omega 3 and also started taking avocados alongside eating healthily; that was it. This whole journey can be so mentally taxing and draining. Sending baby dust to everyone trying 🙏🏾
We got married in late November 2023 and I relocated to London in late September 2024 leaving my wife back home. But before I relocated to London, she had never conceived for 10 months before I relocated. Coming to London, I began my research for good supplements for wanting mom. I came across OVUM, and I did lots of research. And I saw a good number of positive reviews. I bought the first one, sent it to my wife. She started taking it on the 6th of December 2025. On finishing the first bottle, I arrived in Nigeria for my holiday with the second bottle of the supplements. We made love on the 4th of January and as you can see from the lab test result, it shows POSITIVE. MY WIFE IS PREGNANT. THE SUPPLEMENT IS AMAZING. IT WORKS. TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
Get my positive test after 3 cycles of taking ovum. Thanks 🙏🏾 Jesus
Normally I wouldn’t believe in these kinds of things but I haven’t even finished the course and we are Pregnant! - Thankyou OVUM!Definitely worth the money, fast delivery. I’d highly recommend this product for those who wish to conceive!
This particular product was delivered to me opened and I’m so disappointed. This is my second time of buying this product.
I've been using Ovum Supplements for about a month now and so far I haven't experienced any heartburn or indegestion like some of the other reviewers. I tend to take my tablets with food and have them 1 by 1 with plenty of fluid. My reasons for starting these tablets were because my partner and I are TTC and will be starting will potentially be starting IVF in roughly 3 months time, which is the ideal time for supplements of this nature to start making a difference. So whether these work in improving my egg quality I'll only know if I have to go through the IVF process should I not concieve naturally. It is important to note that Ovum - Time To Concieve and the company itself have no connection to or affiliation with the book 'It Starts With The Egg'. So, this product is not recommended within the book, I think there is often confusion in this area due to the name of the web address this company use. I have read the first edition and the newest edition cover to cover as I start my fertility journey. These supplements are not and have never been included or mentioned in the authors work/writing. However, I think for this company to create a formula that is accessible within the UK is a good thing, as it's tough going financially and physically buying each tablet seperately and consuming them 1 by 1 every single day. It is recommended that you still take a prenatal with these tablets though so bear that in mind. Other than that, I've been feeling fine with taking these tablets. Two stars because I personally feel there is a little intentional shadiness with how these have been marketed as if they are affiliated with It Starts With The Egg.
I'm 35 years old and trying for baby number 5! We have 4 children aged 16, 13, 9 and 3. My periods had changed and I believed that I was heading towards perimenepouse! My bleeding became really light and periods only lasted 2 days. I started taking these and after 3 months (3 bottles) my periods went back to normal! Heavy bleeding, 5 days long and normal consistency. I then went to see my Dr and through a blood test it was confirmed that I had ovulated. My progesterone level was at 80 which the dr said was really good. I know for a fact that these tablets have helped. I'd also like to say that my hair has become thicker and nails stronger. Before my nails were brittle and hair thin. Getting pregnant takes time anyway, it took me 18+ months to conceive with my last 2 children. We've been trying for baby number 5 for 12 months now, after taking these I'm positive that we will have a baby. Before taking these I lost all hope! Please hang in there, I know these capsules are expensive but I truly believe they're worth it. My only negative about these would be that if I take them without food I get a tummy ache and your urine will smell strong! A little chemically! Other than that I'm more than happy 😊 I will edit once I get good news 🙂Edit: Hello ladies, I've just found out that I'm pregnant. I took nearly 4 of these bottles and it helped me. Me and my husband are over the moon. I was half way through my 4th bottle when I found out that I'm expecting. I truly do believe that these tablets helped me.
Well I was a little worried first time I bought Ovum. i) reviews, were they real ii) expensive iii) never heard of company. However I went for it, and although I didn't have a successful ivf round, the embryologist said my eggs were better than expected. I have repurchased 3 times now, meaning I will have a full 3 months worth before my next round. Fingers crossed. Oh, should say company a have been amazing to deal with as I had a couple of questions they answered for me and good info on their website. Lovely little touch to get a personalised note to wish me well. Happy to recommend these.
In a world filled with every imaginable configuration of supplements for pregnant women, the market was well and truly missing a high quality, well-researched supplement targeted specifically for fertility.OVUM has come in to fill this gap brilliantly. It contains all the key supplements as recommended by “It Starts With the Egg” in three handy pills. I’ve been taking these now for two months in preparation for medicated cycles and I am so grateful for the reassurance and confidence that these supplements give me going into that process. There’s so much uncertainty in infertility, OVUM have helped me to feel as if I’ve done everything I can to make this a success.I’ve had no issues with digesting these and have tolerated them very well. The tablets themselves are a lovely cream colour and very easy to take. They come in a gorgeous dark glass bottle with a chic and subtle dark green label (thank you so much for not covering it with babies and announcing to the world my infertility).There’s nothing in there that doesn’t need to be there and the social conscious of the company to donate 30% of their profits back to fertility research is just the cherry on the cake.I have tried all manner of fertility/pre-natal vitamins in my 3 year struggle to conceive and OVUM is everything I was hoping for, made right here in the UK. Thank you OVUM for a better class of supplement!
have been using ovum for around 4 months and very happy with the results, we have been able to conceive. this was the only adjustment i made to my lifestyle as part of ttc.
Thank you for sharing this. It means a lot.
Four months is exactly the window we recommend, and there's a reason for it. Eggs take around 90 days to fully mature, so giving your body consistent nutritional support across that full cycle is where it counts. You did that.
Wishing you all the very best for what comes next.
With love,
Lucy, OVUM
I’m happy with my ovum product. I do think it would be good to be able to select a pouch refill over the glass jar as for many reasons a subscription doesn’t suit at the minute so we are ordering jars for now.
Hi Tabatha,
Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to share this feedback, it's really helpful.
Just to explain how the pouch works, the idea is that you keep your original glass jar and simply refill it each month when your subscription arrives. The pouch uses significantly less material than a new jar, is made from compostable materials, and is designed to fit through a standard letterbox so you never have to worry about missing a delivery. It's our way of keeping things sustainable without compromising on the quality of what's inside.
Wishing you all of the best,
Lucy and Team OVUM x
After taking 2 months of time to conceive I’m pregnant!!!
With a history of 3 baby losses and lots of trying I’ve had an early reassurance scan at 6 weeks and there’s 2 gestational sacs. I’m having twins! Absolute magic!
I’m now taking time to carry and trusting that everyday they’re looking after my babies and helping them grow!
Hi Laura,
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. We are so glad you found us.
This is exactly what we work for. We're really pleased you've already made the switch to Time to Carry®, which has been specifically formulated to support you across all three trimesters. We hope it looks after you beautifully throughout the journey ahead.
The OVUM Team x
It took us 14 months to get pregnant the first time, which sadly ended in miscarriage. We started trying again and after 9 months I decided to give Ovum Time to Conceive a try. I fell pregnant just two months later. Sadly, that pregnancy also ended in miscarriage, but I genuinely feel Ovum helped support my fertility and played a part in us conceiving more quickly the second time.
I also noticed a few other positive changes while taking it. My vitamin D levels are now in the optimal range after being low for a long time. My ovulation has become much more predictable each month, which makes timing everything a lot easier. I'd also struggled with luteal phase spotting for over two years, and that reduced significantly too.
I really like that Ovum contains everything you need in one place, so I don't have to take lots of different supplements. I know no supplement can guarantee pregnancy or prevent miscarriage, but based on my own experience, I'll definitely carry on taking Ovum as we continue trying.
Hi there, thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt experience, we're so sorry to hear of your losses.
The way you've written this, with such balance and honesty, reflects exactly how we think about what OVUM can and can't do. We would never claim to be more than supportive care, and you've expressed that beautifully yourself.
The changes you've noticed are really meaningful to us. Vitamin D reaching optimal levels is exactly what the formulation is designed to support, and we know how significant that is for reproductive health. The improvement in ovulation predictability and reduction in luteal phase spotting are also genuinely encouraging to hear..
Wishing you all the best.

Really good product. My skin feels clearer.
Hi Gemma,
Thank you so much for sharing this, it really means a lot. The nutrients in our formulation support your body in so many ways, so it's always lovely to hear when customers notice positive changes. We hope it continues to support you well on your journey.
Team OVUM x
My wife is 30 and discovered she had an AMH of 1 (very low). We did IUI and the clinic recommended she start taking Ovum. After 2 months of taking Ovum, and 2nd round of IUI, she is pregnant. We are delighted, especially after a low AMH diagnosis. For other couples in a similar situation, seek good advice, and stay positive.
Hi Chris,
We're so glad to hear OVUM helped support your journey to pregnancy. It means so much to hear that your clinic recommended OVUM. We are independently recommended by 38+ IVF and fertility clinics across the UK, and knowing that recommendation played a part in your story is something we're incredibly proud of.
Wishing you and your wife all the best for the future!

brilliant product!
Started using these at the beginning of the year and fell pregnant last month. Sadly a miscarriage but first time falling pregnant in three years and I really credit it from using this product! up until now I have had no luck from using other supplements. I now have my husband on the men’s version.
Perfect formula for me me as it’s hard to find supplements with enough CoQ10 and also include NAC.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience!
You're absolutely right that finding a supplement with a meaningful CoQ10 dose alongside NAC is rare. Our MicroActive® CoQ10 at 200mg has been shown to be 3.7x more bioavailable than standard CoQ10 formulations, making it equivalent to 600mg of a standard supplement in terms of what your body can actually absorb and use. Paired with NAC at 600mg, it's a combination we're really proud of.
We hope it continues to support you well.
With love,
The OVUM Team x
Took for three months, and conceived. Can’t say much more than that!!
Hi there,
Thank you for sharing this!
Three months is actually the window we always recommend, and there's a specific reason for it. Eggs take approximately 90 days to fully mature before ovulation, and during that time they are particularly sensitive to the nutrients available to them. Consistent nutritional support throughout that full window is important. So the fact that you gave your body those three months is exactly what we had in mind.
Wishing you all the very best for what comes next.
The OVUM Team x
After 5 months of trying I swapped to this supplement. I fell pregnant the first cycle I was using them so very pleased with the product. I obviously dont know it was these that helped but they seemed to.
Hi there,
Thank you so much for sharing this, and we love that you've been so balanced about it too. That's exactly how we think about it as well. We can never say definitively what makes the difference, but we do know that giving your body the right nutrients, in the right forms, at the right doses, creates the best possible foundation.
We're so glad you found us and hope everything continues to go well. Wishing you all the very best for what comes next.
The OVUM Team x
It may be due to a change in protocol (introducing gonal f as well as meriofert) or it may be due to Ovum... Our IVF outcome is significantly better this time around! Our doctor unofficially recommended Ovum to us when our second round failed. We only retrieved three eggs, only one of which fertilised. This round, after 3 months of taking Ovum,we've retrieved seven eggs, five of which fertilised! Maybe anecdotal evidence, who cares! Thanks for the egg rocket fuel!
Hi there! Egg rocket fuel, we love that! Thank you so much for sharing this.
You're right to acknowledge both factors, and we'd never want to oversimplify. But what we do know is that three months of consistent nutritional support aligns perfectly with the egg maturation cycle, and giving your eggs the right environment to develop in during that window is exactly what Time to Conceive® For Women is designed to do.
It also means so much to hear that your doctor recommended us, even unofficially. We are independently recommended by 38+ IVF clinics across the UK and knowing that recommendation played a part in your story is something we're really proud of.
Wishing you so much luck for the next stage.

Ask Our Fertility Experts
Rather than including a little bit of everything, and taking a scatter-gun approach, every nutrient in Time to Conceive® For Women is included because there is a high level of credible evidence supporting its specific role in egg health, included at the doses used in the latest studies.
Our medical advisory board reviews all published evidence annually and updates our formulation when the evidence warrants it.
Here's three examples of where this matters:
- Folate: We use Methylfolate, the active form your body can use directly, rather than Folic Acid, which requires conversion.NHS datashows that 60-70% of the population carries an MTHFR variant that affects the conversion. We formulate for the population, not just the textbook case.
- CoQ10: We use MicroActive® CoQ10, a patented sustained-release form shown to be 3.7x more bioavailable than standard CoQ10. 200mg of ours performs like 600mg of a standard formulation. Most supplements use whichever form is cheapest.
- Vitamin D3: We include 4000 IU, the level supported by fertility research to reach the optimal preconception threshold of 75 nmol/L. Most supplements include only a fraction of this, not enough to meaningfully address the widespread deficiency rates in our community.
Our medical team designed Time to Conceive® For Women to be for anyone trying to conceive or looking to support their fertility. Including if you’re struggling to conceive, have had recurrent miscarriages, PMOS, irregular ovulation or Endometriosis, whether you're preparing for or in the midst of IVF or IUI treatment, or are over 35.
We recommend taking Time to Conceive® For Women as soon as you start trying to conceive. Ideally, you should begin three months prior - the approximate amount of time it takes for an egg to develop into a mature one prior to ovulation - but it is never too late to start.
For those undergoing IVF, we also recommend taking Time to Conceive® For Women for 3-4 months prior to treatment and throughout egg collection, your transfer, and until you receive a positive pregnancy test or hCG blood test results.
For those who are preparing for an egg freezing cycle, we recommend taking Time to Conceive® For Women for 4-6 months prior to collection.
Because of how ours is formulated. Our patented MicroActive® CoQ10 is around 3.7 times more bioavailable than standard crystalline CoQ10, so 200mg of it is equivalent to, or better than, a 600mg dose of a standard formulation.
Rather than pushing the dose up, we focused on absorption, so you get the same or better result from a smaller, more efficient amount.
Because not everyone with PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, renamed from PCOS by international consensus in May 2026) should necessarily be taking Inositol (in any form), and for those who do not have PMOS - research tells us that Inositol has the potential to cause harm.
Inositol works by improving how your body handles insulin. There are nine different forms, but as a supplement, it’s typically sold as one of two forms (Myo-Inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol), or a blend of both.If insulin resistance is what's pushing your testosterone up, as it does in the classical, hyper-androgenic type of PMOS, then bringing it back down is doing real work.
If your hormone levels are already where they should be, there's no excess to correct. When researchers looked at this by phenotype, women with normal androgen levels showed no meaningful hormonal change after six months of Myo-Inositol, and so no benefit in taking it.
The 2023 international guideline on PMOS strongly recommends against Inositol (in any form) as a fertility treatment, describing it as experimental, with benefits and risks "too uncertain." ESHRE's 2025 guidance went further, strongly recommending against Myo-Inositol for women without PMOS going through IVF. Cochrane, which grades evidence independently, rates the evidence linking Myo-Inositol to live birth as very low certainty. That grade rests on two studies and 84 women in total. NICE's fertility guideline, updated in March 2026, doesn't mention it at all.
One randomised trial has tested Myo-inositol on egg maturity in women without PMOS: 100 women, 4 g a day for three months. The myo-inositol group ended up with fewer eggs, and fewer mature eggs, than the group who didn't.
We therefore don’t include Inositol in Time to Conceive® For Women because it is not suitable for those who do not have PMOS. And for those that do, the evidence isn’t yet clear cut as to whether it is suitable to take in all cases of PMOS. We need more research in the space, as not everyone with PMOS has insulin resistance and it’s not clear whether Inositol offers much benefit to the people that fall into that category. There’s further potential to harm egg quality as recent evidence points to the ratio of Myo-Inositol to D-Chiro-Inositol (which is usually found as a combination in supplement products) being important. Too much D-Chiro-Inositol relative to Myo-Inositol could actually work against egg quality.
Trying to conceive already asks a lot of you, and remembering to reorder a supplement shouldn't be one more thing on that list.
Subscribing means Time to Conceive® For Women lands with you automatically each month, with a reminder email before it's charged and dispatched, so there's no gap in your routine and one less thing to think about.
You're never locked in either, you can cancel, delay or amend your subscription any time.Our refill pouch makes it even easier. Instead of a full new tub every time, your subscription arrives as a compostable refill pouch that tops up your existing jar, so there's less packaging. It's slim enough to fit straight through your letterbox too, so there's no waiting in for a delivery.Y

No, you don't need to be undergoing IVF to take Time to Conceive® For Women, it's designed for anyone trying to conceive, spontaneously or through fertility treatment.
We’re incredibly proud that 38+ IVF clinics (and counting) currently recommend Time to Conceive® For Women to their patients, largely because they recognise the evidence behind our product, its quality and the standard that we hold ourselves to.
Part of why IVF doctors recommend Time to Conceive® For Women is because our formula is based on a comprehensive analysis of relevant medical research with studies confirmed by multiple different groups involving real patients. We translated these 550+ clinical studies into the formula we have today, which includes the most optimal and bioavailable form of nutrients and required doses. This allowed our core team of doctors and scientists to select the nutrients with the highest quality evidence in support of their beneficial impact on fertility outcomes. Whilst the focus of the research was on improving fertility outcomes, we also considered any particular fertility benefit for those with PMOS and Endometriosis. We also ensured that all the nutrients are recognised as safe in early pregnancy.
We encourage you to compare the Time to Conceive® For Women supplement label to others on the market and check what is included (full list of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants), the doses, and the quality of the nutrients.
Rather than including a little bit of everything, and taking a scatter-gun approach, every nutrient in Time to Conceive® For Women is included because there is a high level of credible evidence supporting its specific role in egg health, included at the doses used in the latest studies.

Because of how ours is formulated. Our patented MicroActive® CoQ10 is around 3.7 times more bioavailable than standard crystalline CoQ10, so 200mg of it is equivalent to, or better than, a 600mg dose of a standard formulation.
Rather than pushing the dose up, we focused on absorption, so you get the same or better result from a smaller, more efficient amount.
Because not everyone with PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, renamed from PCOS by international consensus in May 2026) should necessarily be taking Inositol (in any form), and for those who do not have PMOS - research tells us that Inositol has the potential to cause harm.
Inositol works by improving how your body handles insulin. There are nine different forms, but as a supplement, it’s typically sold as one of two forms (Myo-Inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol), or a blend of both.If insulin resistance is what's pushing your testosterone up, as it does in the classical, hyper-androgenic type of PMOS, then bringing it back down is doing real work.
If your hormone levels are already where they should be, there's no excess to correct. When researchers looked at this by phenotype, women with normal androgen levels showed no meaningful hormonal change after six months of Myo-Inositol, and so no benefit in taking it.
The 2023 international guideline on PMOS strongly recommends against Inositol (in any form) as a fertility treatment, describing it as experimental, with benefits and risks "too uncertain." ESHRE's 2025 guidance went further, strongly recommending against Myo-Inositol for women without PMOS going through IVF. Cochrane, which grades evidence independently, rates the evidence linking Myo-Inositol to live birth as very low certainty. That grade rests on two studies and 84 women in total. NICE's fertility guideline, updated in March 2026, doesn't mention it at all.
One randomised trial has tested Myo-inositol on egg maturity in women without PMOS: 100 women, 4 g a day for three months. The myo-inositol group ended up with fewer eggs, and fewer mature eggs, than the group who didn't.
We therefore don’t include Inositol in Time to Conceive® For Women because it is not suitable for those who do not have PMOS. And for those that do, the evidence isn’t yet clear cut as to whether it is suitable to take in all cases of PMOS. We need more research in the space, as not everyone with PMOS has insulin resistance and it’s not clear whether Inositol offers much benefit to the people that fall into that category. There’s further potential to harm egg quality as recent evidence points to the ratio of Myo-Inositol to D-Chiro-Inositol (which is usually found as a combination in supplement products) being important. Too much D-Chiro-Inositol relative to Myo-Inositol could actually work against egg quality.
Trying to conceive already asks a lot of you, and remembering to reorder a supplement shouldn't be one more thing on that list.
