Nutrition and Fertility
Nutrition plays a critical role in fertility and IVF treatments. A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients supports overall reproductive health, helping to enhance fertility.
The Positive Impact: Consuming specific nutrients, like folate and antioxidants, can improve egg quality and optimise hormonal balance, significantly increasing the odds of successful IVF outcomes.
The Negative Impact: Conversely, poor nutrition can disrupt hormonal balance, impair egg health, and potentially diminish the success rates of treatments.
Therefore, maintaining a well-balanced diet is an integral part of any fertility or IVF treatment plan.
As part of a balanced diet to support your fertility journey, you can consult with dietitian Artemis Kyrka for a personalised nutrition plan designed to support your efforts every step of the way.
