The current approach to infertility is often reactive, much like modern healthcare. We tend to wait until a problem arises before attempting to fix it—usually by addressing only the symptoms rather than the root cause. Unfortunately, infertility is frequently treated in the same way.

Many couples I see in my clinic need help improving their overall health to boost their chances of conception. A truly effective fertility strategy goes beyond standard tests and delves deeper into areas such as hormone balance, uterine health, and vaginal and semen microbiome testing.

Too often, clients come to me after having been told their test results are ‘fine.’ While these results may not indicate a serious medical condition, they are not necessarily optimal for fertility. Many couples waste precious time believing everything is as it should be when, in reality, there are adjustments that could significantly improve their chances of conceiving.

As part of my work with couples on their fertility journey, I review their blood work, explain what their results mean, and identify ways to enhance their reproductive health. Lifestyle factors such as diet, stress management, and sleep quality play a crucial role in fertility. Nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and hormone imbalances are all factors that can be addressed to create a more favourable environment for conception.

The Importance of Holistic Fertility Care

A comprehensive fertility plan should consider more than just medical tests. Emotional and mental well-being also play a significant role. Stress, anxiety, and emotional strain can all have a profound impact on hormonal balance and overall reproductive health. This is why I advocate for a holistic approach, incorporating relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and even alternative therapies such as acupuncture or reflexology where appropriate.

Additionally, understanding your cycle and timing intercourse correctly can make a significant difference. Many couples do not receive proper guidance on tracking ovulation or recognising key fertility signs, leading to unnecessary frustration. I help my clients with cycle tracking, ensuring they have the knowledge and tools to optimise their chances of conception.

If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year (or six months if you’re over 35), it may be time to seek a deeper investigation into potential underlying issues. Fertility is not just about one or two factors—it’s a combination of various elements that need to be in balance.
