What is ConceptionXR®?
ConceptionXR® is a safe, evidence-based nutritional supplement designed to support normal male fertility. It contains antioxidants designed to decrease oxidative stress in the semen, along with other nutrients designed to support normal sperm production.
How does ConceptionXR® work?
When sperm are being formed, they are subject to damage from highly reactive oxidizing molecules known as free radicals. The free radicals are caused by the effect of oxygen as it passes through the cells in the body. Many infertile men have a higher concentration of these oxidizing molecules in their semen when compared to fertile males. Antioxidant nutrients fight against free radicals and the damage they cause. In addition to antioxidants, ConceptionXR® contains other nutrients that support normal sperm production, and may optimize a man’s reproductive health.

ConceptionXR® is contraindicated in anyone with known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the ingredients in ConceptionXR®. Men who have an existing seizure disorder should use ConceptionXR® only under medical advisement and supervision. Increased frequency and/or severity of seizures has been reported in people with pre-existing seizure disorders who take L-carnitine, an ingredient found in ConceptionXR®.
How many capsules of ConceptionXR® should I take per day?
The recommended dosage of ConceptionXR® is four tablets per day, with food. For best results, take two tablets in the morning with breakfast and two tablets at night with dinner.
How long should I take ConceptionXR®?
ConceptionXR® should be taken by men during the time that they are trying to father a pregnancy. However, research has shown that from “start to finish” it takes roughly three months for a sperm to be produced in the testicle. This means that any benefit from taking ConceptionXR® may take at least three months to appear. So, for best results ConceptionXR® should be taken for at least three months, or until pregnancy occurs.
Who is likely to benefit from ConceptionXR®?
Any man who is trying to father a pregnancy could benefit by taking ConceptionXR®. ConceptionXR® is designed to support normal sperm production, and may optimize a man’s reproductive health.
Should I continue to take other nutritional supplements with ConceptionXR®?
If you are currently taking a "low-dose" multivitamin and mineral supplement, you can continue to take this in addition to ConceptionXR®. "Low-dose" refers to a multivitamin and mineral supplement providing approximately 100% of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) and/or Adequate Intake (AI) of each, or most, nutrient(s). You will find this information listed on the supplement's label. Multivitamin and mineral supplements that provide "mega-doses" of nutrients are not necessary and may cause interactions with drugs or among nutrients, or result in nutrient toxicity. Taking additional amounts of nutrients that are contained in ConceptionXR® is generally not recommended. If you have questions about any additional dietary supplements that you are currently taking, please contact our Registered Dietitian via email:

Is ConceptionXR® expensive?
ConceptionXR® costs $85 for a 1-month supply, $210 for a 3-month supply ($70/month), and $390 for a 6-month supply ($65/month). Other male fertility supplements range in cost from $30 to $120 per month. However, it is difficult to really compare all of the supplements marketed to improve male fertility because the individual formulations differ greatly from one another. The quality of the supplements can also differ. For example, many of these supplements contain herbal ingredients that are difficult to standardize for content accuracy and purity. ConceptionXR® is the only one of these supplements that is independently certified for content accuracy and purity or backed by a medical advisory board comprised of leading academic physicians and scientists.

Is ConceptionXR® regulated by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)?
ConceptionXR® is a nutritional supplement, not a prescription medication. All nutritional supplements are regulated by the FDA as foods, and are not subject to the stringent testing that prescription medications must undergo. Therefore, quality control of the dietary supplement industry is not well regulated. Because of this “lack of regulation” ConceptionXR® has been certified for content accuracy, product purity, and freedom from contamination by NSF® International, a non-profit agency that provides quality assurance testing in the public health and life safety industries.

Is insurance reimbursement available for ConceptionXR®?
Because ConceptionXR® is a nutritional supplement and not a prescription drug, it does not require a prescription, and has not been assigned an NDC (National Drug Code). Most insurance companies and prescription card programs do not generally cover nutritional supplements. However, insurance plans vary greatly, and therefore you may want to check with your insurance company to determine eligibility for reimbursement.
