I had laparoscopic ovarian drilling done last week and my doctor said I can start trying to conceive next month. What supplements or diet changes should I focus on to improve my chances of getting pregnant naturally? I want to make sure I'm doing everything right to boost fertility after the surgery

Yes. Your chances of Ovulation will increase and so will your chances of conception. IUI is just a shade better than natural conception because it is timed nicely according to Ovulation. Also the semen is prepared. Even if you go for IUI you should continue your efforts for natural conception.
