Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a powerful supplement widely used for various health benefits. Recently, Dr. Alexander Kotlyar collaborated with Freeze.Health to explain how CoQ10 can support women undergoing egg freezing.
Dr. Kotlyar explains that as an essential molecule for cellular energy production, CoQ10 acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals. This protective effect is especially critical for eggs, as they are susceptible to DNA and mitochondrial damage over time. This is a key factor contributing to declining egg quality and quantity with age.
Research highlights CoQ10’s ability to improve egg quality and enhance outcomes in egg freezing cycles. Studies have shown it can boost follicle size and number, increase mature egg yield, and even improve mitochondrial function, leading to healthier embryos and fewer chromosomal abnormalities. While its benefits are most evident in women over 35, younger women may also experience positive effects.
With minimal side effects and a recommended dosage of 600 mg for 1–2 months before egg freezing, CoQ10 is a safe and effective supplement to optimize reproductive health. For women preparing for egg freezing, incorporating CoQ10 into their regimen can provide significant advantages, ensuring better egg quality and a greater likelihood of future pregnancy success.
