Fertility Programme

A quarter of all couples planning a baby have trouble conceiving and 30% of couples who seek medical help have ‘unexplained’ infertility. Ensuring you and your partner are optimally nourished can increase both your chances of conceiving naturally or by IVF.

It is ideal to prepare for pregnancy 3-4 months before you are planning to conceive or have your treatment. Your therapist will work with you to evaluate your nutritional status (preliminary tests are included), discuss lifestyle and dietary factors, which can influence conception and ensure you are optimally nourished before conception. If necessary your hormones will be monitored through one cycle to review hormone balance.

Partners are welcome to attend.

The programme includes:

• An initial consultation to discuss your health and lifestyle and the optimum diet for conception and for a healthy pregnancy.
• Toxic metal screen and blood tests for mineral status. (In some cases additional tests may be required).
• Follow-up consultation to discuss test results.
• A personalised supplement programme for the pre-conceptual period, if appropriate.
