Quick answers
What is fertility / pre-conception nutrition support?
Fertility nutrition support focuses on improving hormone balance, metabolic health, nutrient status, and overall wellbeing to support conception and a healthy pregnancy.
It may be helpful whether you are:

- Preparing for IVF or fertility treatment
- Managing PCOS or hormone imbalance
- Recovering from miscarriage
- Planning pregnancy in the next 6–12 months
Common reasons people seek support

- PCOS or endometriosis
- Low energy / stress / burnout
- Poor egg or sperm quality
- Recurrent miscarriage
- Preparing for IVF
- Wanting the healthiest possible pregnancy
How nutrition support can help
Nutrition and lifestyle changes can support:
- Ovulation and cycle regularity
- Hormone balance
- Blood sugar stability
- Egg and sperm quality
- Gut health and inflammation
- Energy and stress resilience
Support is personalised — not a generic fertility diet.
When to see your GP or fertility specialist
Speak to your GP if:
- You have been trying for 12 months (6 months if over 35)
- Periods are irregular or absent
- You have PCOS, endometriosis, or thyroid issues
- You have had repeated miscarriage
- You are starting IVF or fertility treatment
We work alongside your GP or fertility clinic.
How we support fertility & pre-conception health
Fertility is influenced by hormones, metabolism, stress, nutrition, and overall health.
Our work focuses on identifying the factors affecting you personally.
Your programme may include:
1. Hormone & cycle support
We look at ovulation, cycle patterns, and hormone balance to support regular, healthy cycles.
2. Blood sugar & metabolic health
Insulin resistance and blood sugar swings can affect ovulation, PCOS, and fertility.
3. Nutrient status & diet quality
Key nutrients for fertility may include iron, B-vitamins, iodine, omega-3, zinc, selenium, and vitamin D.
4. Gut health & inflammation
Digestive health and inflammation can influence hormone balance and immune function.
5. Stress, sleep & nervous system
Chronic stress can affect ovulation, sperm quality, and hormone regulation.
6. Functional testing (when appropriate)
For complex cases we may consider testing to guide treatment
