The biggest question when trying to conceive: where do I even start?
After having my dream wedding last year, I’m thinking about starting my "trying to conceive" (TTC) journey. There’s this whole idea that conceiving should be easy, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. The CDC reports that almost 20% of US women aged 15-49 face difficulties getting pregnant after one year of trying.
Some of my friends undergoing TTC recommended Needed’s Fertility Support Plan, a 6-part bundle to give your body what it needs to start the journey. I know what you’re thinking... what does that even mean?! Here’s everything you need to know:
Firstly... What is Needed?
Needed is a supplement company on a mission to radically change health outcomes for mothers and babies for the better. The company was created by two trained-nutritionists-and-mothers who knew a better way was, well, Needed! (clever, right?) Their products are recommended by 4,000+ health practitioners, are expertly formulated, and are third-party tested.
Don’t just take our word for it—mamas are positively raving about Needed:

How does Needed’s Fertility Support Plan work?
Their 6-part fertility support plan includes 6 key supplements tailored to support your whole-body health when preparing to conceive. These items are:
1. Prenatal Multivitamin
Prenatals aren’t just for those who are pregnant—they’re safe for women who plan to conceive in the future, too. Needed’s Prenatal Multis (which come in a vanilla-flavored powder or capsule form) are packed with 23-24 vitamins and minerals like Choline, Vitamin D3, and Folate.
2. Collagen Protein Powder
I didn’t know this before Needed, but a lot of women aren’t getting enough protein during pregnancy and postpartum. Protein helps fight nausea, supports blood sugar management, and aids in growing baby’s cells, so it shouldn’t be skipped! And don’t forget the joint, skin, and hair benefits (trust me, you want the GLOW)!
Needed’s Prenatal Collagen Protein comes in a powder, so I mix it in with my morning coffee. It blends perfectly and has no taste—it’s the easiest thing ever to build into your routine.
3. Prenatal Omega-3+
Needed says that 95% of moms don’t get enough Omega-3s, Choline, Lutein, and Zeaxanthin in their diet. Needed’s Omega-3+ is optimally dosed to support brain, nerve, and eye development, plus mood stabilization. I enjoy the bergamot taste, and I love that it’s sourced sustainably from microalgae, not fish—how cool is that?
4. Egg Quality Support
Did you know that you’re born with all of your eggs? Yeah... me neither. Needed’s Egg Quality Support supplement is designed to support egg cell health as they mature (which takes 3-4 months), as well as support fertility outcomes. Needed recommends taking their Egg Support at least 3 months before TTC or egg freezing.
5. CoQ10
CoQ10, also known as Coenzyme Q10, is an antioxidant found in every cell of your body, but it starts to decline with age. Needed’s supplement helps both men and women support their egg and sperm quality, as well as cardiovascular health, energy, and metabolism.
6. Pre/Probiotic
Needed’s Pre/Probiotic was created to support optimal skin, gut, and vaginal health!
Okay, so.. I convinced you. You NEED Needed. How do you purchase the Fertility Support Plan?
Great question—I’m so glad you asked! It costs $319.94, BUT you’ll save money with a monthly subscription, bringing the price down to as low as $231.95/month. For 6 products that are serving my body exactly what it needs for my TTC journey, this feels more than fair. Needed also offers FREE shipping to the United States, and easy cancellations with their top-notch customer service.
By taking these 6 supplements daily, you’re supporting your whole-body health, allowing your body the best possible chance to be ready to conceive when you are. I’ve been taking the Fertility Support Plan for about 6 weeks, and I truly feel better than ever.
Take the guesswork out of your TTC and TRY NEEDED. You won’t regret it!
