Can I Take Tea And Coffee If I Am Planning To Opt For IVF?
I am 31 and my husband is 35 and we are currently planning on doing IVF for our first baby. I am closely monitoring my diet and wanted to know if i can continue to drink coffee and tea everyday ? 1 cup of coffee in the morning and 1 -2 cups of tea in the evening. Also my husband might be leaving back to US and I wanted to know if freezing sperms is as good as a fresh sample ?

Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM .
You can take one cup of tea or coffee daily. That won't cause any problem for your fertility treatment. Don't drink too much concentrated coffee . That means mixing more coffee powder in half glass milk.
Excess caffeine in coffee is harmfull and know to cause infertility . That is 9 to 10 cups of coffee daily and concentrated one.
Yes frozen sperms are as good as fresh sperms. Nowadays every IVF centers froze ovum and sperms to avoid multiple removal.
It is safe . Don't worry. Be stress free.
Hope I have been helpful .
Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
