Top 10 way to increase fertility

Read one woman's journey on how to naturally increase female fertility

I’ve been trying to get pregnant for over one year. After a successful pregnancy, I never questioned if I was fertile or not. As I am young, and in relatively good health, or so I thought

My naturopath had me keep a journal of everything that I ate & drank, all the cosmetics I put on, and where I was getting my water from for one week.

She examined my journal and shook her head. She said “No wonder you can’t get pregnant, your body is full of stimulants & chemicals” I looked

She continued: Do you realize that in order to have a baby you have to give your body a chance to be fertile? To increase your female fertility you have to live & eat more natural.”

I was still confused so she broke down all the reason WHY I was struggling with female fertility.

Reason 1: My diet. I eat only 1 vegetable a day and 2 servings of fruit. A small breakfast, 6-8 cups of coffee and live off of chocolate, who knew this, was bad for female fertilitypuzzled.

Reason 2: Sleep. In order to increase your body’s ability to increase female fertility, one must get rest. I was averaging about 5-6 hours of sleep a night.

Reason 3: Exercise for me meant rolling the ball with my three year old. I laugh now but it was sad.

Reason 4: Water- In order for your body to be fertile you must drink water. No problem, I drink tons of water. Here is the catch; I was drinking water out of plastic. All plastic has chemicals that can disrupt your natural hormone cycle, which will in turn make it more difficult to conceive.

Reason 5: More Chemicals & environment

Who knew that all my favorite store brand cosmetics, lotion, face cleaners, hair color, household cleaning supplies, etc could cause such damage to my hormones? It turns out that most lotions, creams & gels have a nasty preservative called parabens that are also hormone disruptors. These chemicals will also affect your body’s natural ability to be fertile.

Reason 6: Stress

I worked in high stress, fast paced environment. I worked 10-12 hours a day and then went home to my family. Playing and having fun was not apart of my lifestyle. When our bodies have high stress levels, you have high cortisol and low progesterone (hormone needed to maintain pregnancy)

Quickly after sharing the reasons WHY I was having fertility issues, my naturopath shared with my top 10 reasons & ways to naturally increase female fertility.

Exercise: every night my family takes a 20 -30 min walk and it’s great. We are all miserably out of shape so this has been a welcomed change. Plus I started using Bend & Breathe Yoga DVD. It’s amazing how relaxed & strong I feel after doing Yoga.
Water- I dumped plastic all together and switched to Stainless steel water bottles. My whole family switched my three year old uses the water bottle for kids, my husband likes the blue stainless steel bottle by new wave and I like the one by Thinksport as it has a place for tea leaves. We’ve also installed reverse osmosis in our home.
Chemicals & environment- I’ve switched to natural everything. I read labels like crazy; if it has parabens or any preservatives breakdown to other nasty chemical like formaldehyde we don’t use it. We also do our laundry with all natural soaps. I even use vinegar to clean my house!
Stress- I took a reduced position at my job. That was the biggest stressor in my life. I know everyone is not in a position to do this but it was necessary for me to reduce my stress.
Supplements- In order to naturally increase female fertility, I started using supplements by Fairhaven Health. Fairhaven health specializes in supplements & aides to naturally increase female fertility. Specifically, I used FertilAide for Women and my husband used Fertile Adie for Men.
Basal Charting. I bought our digital thermometer and ovulation kit to see when I was ovulating. This helps determine when is the best time to try making a baby.
