Ways to Support Your Fertility

Conceiving a child may be easier for some couples than others.

In addition to assisted reproductive technologies, such as IVF, there are more natural approaches to fertility support.

A Fertility-Supporting Lifestyle

If you've been trying to have a child for a while and are not yet expecting, try these lifestyle changes first (after consulting with your practitioner first).

Get More Sleep

Not getting enough sleep can speed up the aging process, which can interfere with reproduction. Make a conscious effort to prepare for a restful sleep. Shut down your electronics well before bedtime and spend some quiet time reading or meditating.

Reduce Your Stress Levels

This is easier said than done, but is so important. Stress is one of the leading issues that affect fertility in both men and women: It can harm sperm development and  wreak havoc on a woman’s monthly cycle.. When you feel stressed, take some time to unwind, whether by taking a walk,doing yoga, picking up a book or catching up with a friend.

Reduce Your Toxin Exposure

Dioxins are toxins found in everyday products, such as cosmetics, plastics, canned food liners, stain repellents, metals and pesticides. These chemicals can have a negative impact on reproductive development in both men and women.. Opting for organic foods and products to reduce your exposure to harmful toxins can be very beneficial in improving your fertility.

Nutrients and Herbs

If simple lifestyle changes still haven't changed the color on the dipstick, you can try bolstering your nutrient levels.
