I hope this post provides inspiration for anyone worrying about their fertility. It’s pretty amazing what we can now do to improve aging follicles/oocytes, but at the same time, setting up the foundations earlier on in life will always benefit you.

This post is not to scare anyone, but to perhaps gently nudge you in the right direction.

Prioritising your mental and emotional health is always going to be one of the most important contributing factors to your overall health and egg quality.

Do what you can to live a healthy life; no one is perfect (including me!); I hope these ideas help to reduce some of the noise around what to do to support your health/fertility.

It’s about a 20% chance per cycle that you will fall pregnant, so if after 5 months of trying, you have not fallen pregnant, it’s important to consider testing.

It can be really difficulty accepting or even acknowledging you need help, but the worst thing I see is clients that have tried for years and years without getting investigated properly, or not knowing there was even the option for really comprehensive testing.

Personally, with the information I know, I will test and treat myself before looking to get pregnant, because I know the benefits of this work, for my future child, but equally I appreciate wanting to try naturally first and see.

Do everything in your power for at least 4 months before trying; stick to the suggestions I have mentioned above.

Optimal health; optimal s***m and egg quality; optimal health of your child.

Secondary infertility always has causes, that are able to be found when investigated properly 🙏🏽

All of the above can be worked on, and improved via the work I do with my clients. 

The right diet, the right nutrients, therapeutic doses of supplements that are targeted to your individual needs, and optimising your microbiome forms the basis of my work.

This puts your body back into a state of optimal health, which provides the best environment to conceive and get pregnant.

It takes time and it takes commitment, but the results speak for themselves.

Trust me.

You can see a common theme here - the microbiome 👀

Absolutely huge when it comes to optimal male fertility.

So much of us as humans is made up of microbes - our body contains trillions of micro-organisms. They influence our health to such a large extent. There is obviously a lot more to it than just the microbiome, but it’s hugely important.

If your immune system is dealing with infections, high viral load (viruses), parasites or yeasts e.g. candida - these will directly affect semen quality,

Have a look for some of these indications on your semen analysis 🤍

Ps. what the lab considers is a normal reference range may not be normal to me!
