Prepare for IVF Together

Pre-IVF Pocket Coach · For both of you, in the months before your next IVF cycle

Walk into your next IVF cycle knowing you both did your part.

Half of every embryo is his. Your clinic handles the protocol. Pocket Coach handles the 90 days before it: clear, evidence-based guidance on what to change, what you can keep, and what’s out of your hands.

Pocket Coach is a private daily guide on your phone: one for her, one for him, for the months before your cycle.

Morning · 60 seconds

Check in

Sleep, food, stress, connection. Your answers shape today’s suggestions, with one main focus at the top.

During the day

"I'm about to…"

A quick guide for real-life moments, so you can say yes to your life with confidence.

Every week

Review

A weekly review built from your own entries, plus a summary you can bring to your clinician.

How your daily guidance is chosen

  • Your check-in shapes it. What you tap about sleep, food, stress and connection changes your suggestions and your main focus for the day.
  • It’s automatic and private. The Pocket Coach picks from Dr. Lejla’s research-based content, right on your device. No one reads your entries, not even Dr. Lejla.
  • It’s guidance, not a measurement. A check-in can’t tell what is happening to eggs or sperm. It helps you notice patterns and make steadier choices.
  • Your program summary is a document you can download, with your own entries, patterns and questions for your clinic. You decide whether to share it.
This was never meant to be one person's job

The cycle is not only yours to carry.

For her

"I feel like everything depends on me."

You've read everything. You've wondered about every coffee and every late night. You don't need another list of rules. You need a calm, clear guide for each day, and to know you're not the only one holding this.

What changes: you have a plan for today, and he has one too.

For him

"I want to help. I just don't know what to do."

He watches her go through all of it and feels on the outside. Nobody gives him instructions. But his sperm provides half of the embryo’s genetic material, so preparation shouldn’t fall on her alone.

What changes: his own private space, with a simple "here's your part today." No group, no calls he doesn't want, nothing reported to anyone.

Same window, same start date

Start together, because your windows overlap.

Her eggs finish maturing over about 90 days, and his sperm develop over about 74. Starting together gives each of you the most time, and one shared countdown. If your retrieval is sooner, start now anyway and follow your clinic’s schedule. Never delay treatment to finish a countdown.

Her · final egg maturation~90 days
His · sperm development~74 days + maturing
Day 1: you both startYour cycle

One start date. One countdown. Each of you with your own daily part. "Day 23 of 90, together."

The bridge between your life and your clinic

Nothing replaces your protocol. But you still have a life to live before it.

Who is trying it?

For herFor him

Trying it as a couple? Each of you opens your own, with your own email.

Which one is for whom? Her Pocket Coach is for the partner whose eggs are being used. His Pocket Coach is for the partner providing sperm. Using donor sperm or preparing solo? Her Pocket Coach works fully on its own.
The free call is about using the program, not medical care: Dr. Lejla does not diagnose or treat. Ongoing personal coaching is available separately.
Prefer to pay over time? Choose Klarna or Affirm at checkout (subject to their approval).
Prefer personal 1:1 support? See the consultation and 8-week program with Dr. Lejla.

The IVF Lifestyle Map

What can affect what? Tap to see.

Five choices couples often make before IVF, and what each one can set off in the body. Tap a choice to see its path, or tap a body area to see which choices reach it.

This map shows possible links and how strong the evidence is. A link in the body does not mean a choice changes your chance of pregnancy. It is not advice and does not replace your clinic.

Questions

What couples usually ask.

Will this interfere with my IVF protocol?

No. We don't touch medication, dosing or anything your clinic prescribes. The Pocket Coach covers daily life around your protocol. If you're ever unsure, ask your clinic, and follow their advice.

Do I have to give up coffee, wine or going out?

This isn't a list of bans. You’ll understand why each choice matters in this window, and you decide. Many couples find they change less than they feared, and feel calmer about what they do change.

Why a year, if the window is 90 days?

Cycles don't always go to plan or on schedule. A year covers your preparation now and gives you time to continue or restart if your date moves or you need another cycle.

What if I'm not doing IVF, or I'm preparing on my own?

For natural conception or IUI, the same 90-day and 74-day windows apply. For a frozen transfer, your embryo already exists, so this window isn’t about egg or sperm quality, but Her Pocket Coach can still support sleep, stress and daily routines in the weeks around your transfer. Her Pocket Coach works on its own if you're using donor sperm or preparing solo.

How is this different from a fertility app?

It was designed by Dr. Lejla, who has spent 15+ years preparing couples for IVF alongside fertility clinics. It covers both of you, each with a private Pocket Coach. Your daily check-in shapes your suggestions automatically, your entries are encrypted so no one else can read them (not even Dr. Lejla), and every plan includes a free 15-minute call with Dr. Lejla for your questions.

Does it recommend supplements?

No. The Pocket Coach never recommends supplements or medication. Those questions belong with your doctor or clinic, and the Pocket Coach points you there.

What does the food guidance include?

A food guide that explains the “why” behind common foods and drinks, plus Mediterranean-style meal ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There’s no strict diet and no banned list: you see why each choice matters in this window, and you decide.

Can my partner see my entries?

No. Each of you has a separate, encrypted account. Nothing is shared with your partner, or with Dr. Lejla, unless you choose to share it yourself, for example by sending an article or your program summary.

What if our cycle is cancelled or delayed?

Access lasts a full year, so you can keep going, or start again when your new date is set.

Is this medical advice?

No. It’s self-guided lifestyle and wellness preparation that sits alongside the care from your fertility clinic and physicians. It doesn't diagnose, treat, or promise any outcome.

Not ready yet?

What did you give up for IVF?

The coffee. The wine. His beer night. Get the free guide: everything couples give up before a cycle, with an honest answer for each one. Did you have to? Most of the time, no.

Two halves. One window. One plan you share.

Your clinic has the protocol. Let us guide the days in between, for both of you.

A note on what this is. Cycle Decoded is provided by Dr. Lejla Fazlicic, D.Ac, L.Ac, a Doctor of Acupuncture and Licensed Acupuncturist in Illinois, as lifestyle and wellness guidance intended to work alongside the care you receive from your fertility clinic and physicians. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not replace or change any medical protocol.

Individual results vary. Lifestyle changes may influence the biological environment in which eggs and sperm develop; they are not a guarantee of any fertility, IVF, or pregnancy outcome. Always consult your fertility specialist before making changes during a treatment cycle.
