4 Ways to be Proactive to Optimize Your Fertility

By Melanie Reidl, Naturopathic Doctor

Whether you are currently TTC (trying to conceive) and have yet to achieve a healthy pregnancy, or are planning to TTC within the next year, these 4 items are key! ????

You absolutely *DO NOT* need to wait an entire year before having some basic testing done to see if your fertility is being impacted by things such as: suboptimal metabolic health, thyroid function, hormone dysfunction, or nutritional status factors.

Here are 4 things you can do *NOW*:

1 – SCREENING BLOOD WORK

2 – CYCLE/HORMONE/HEALTH ASSESSMENT

3 – DIET & LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS

4 – INDIVIDUALIZED SUPPLEMENTS

In some cases, there is a true reproductive pathology (ie low ovarian reserve, low sperm count, severe endometriosis) that may require intervention from a fertility clinic.

However, in MANY CASES, the previously mentioned systems are dysfunctional, and it is a matter of determining which systems need targeted support (via diet, lifestyle, supplements, etc).

If you’re currently/soon to be TTC, I would be honoured to support you in your journey! BOOK AN APPOINTMENT
