|
There are many environmental factors that can impact the health of the ovaries and eggs. Environmental factors, hormones in the diet, and stress can also have an impact on the health of the ovaries and eggs.
Having healthy fertility is based on many factors, proper circulation, healthy fertility cycle, balanced hormones, and healthy eggs. In this article I will be sharing with you how you can increase the health of your eggs by using natural herbs, supplements, foods, and applying self massage.
Many women who are having troubles getting pregnant have been told there eggs are not healthy, or that there eggs are “old”. The options given to these women are using an egg donor, IVF, or adoption. Now there may be another option… Do you know that you can impact the health of your eggs? In the cycle of an eggs life there is a window of opportunity, a period of time when certain factors can affect the health of your eggs that are preparing for ovulation.
The cycle of an egg in preparation for ovulation is around 90 days.
After the egg is initiated to begin preparing for the ovulation cycle formation of egg quality beings around 90 days prior to ovulation. During this period eggs are effected by:
So these are the factors you want to focus on when increasing the health of your eggs. Let’s look at each closer and how you can have an impact on that area…
Blood Flow and Proper Oxygenation
Oxygen rich blood flow to the ovaries is essential for egg health. Blood flow becomes decreased from lack of exercise, dehydration, and thick blood. To increase blood flow to the ovaries follow these suggestions:
Drink 8 8oz. glasses of pure water every day.
Excercise - find something to do that includes movement, such as tennis, walking, running, dancing, or yoga.
Apply Self Fertility Massage- One of the best therapies for increasing egg health and fertility is massaging your ovaries and uterus. Massage helps to bring fresh blood to the ovaries and removes old blood.
Hormonal Balance
Hormonal balance is essential for proper egg health. Due to environmental factors, stress, and modern diets more and more women are becoming hormonally imbalanced. If hormonal balance is off the eggs may not respond, the fertility cycle gets out of balance, and ovulation may not occur. An intricate hormonal symphony is at play every month in preparation and fulfillment of the fertility cycle. But there is good news. Balancing your hormones is possible. Here are some ways to help balance your hormones and nourish the endocrine system.
Cleanse the system of excess hormones
Reduce exposure to xenohormones
If your FSH levels are high the herb Vitex has been shown to help
Nutritional Intake
During this window of opportunity what you are eating can impact the health of your ovaries and eggs either positively or negatively. It’s up to you. The types of nutrients your eggs are craving is a diet dense in nutrition. Here are some guidelines for super egg health:
Top foods for egg health
-Royal Jelly and Bee Propolis

Take a Multivitamin
A major part of increasing egg health and preparing the uterine lining is to take a prenatal multivitamin. Making sure your body has all of the nutrients necessary is a lot easier when you are taking a multivitamin. My favorite is the 100% whole food Baby and Me from Mega Food. Synthetic multivitamins won’t have the same effect.
Use Supporting supplements
Use Fertility Superfoods
Fertility superfoods are extremely nutrient dense and deliver theraputic benefits every time you take them. One of my favorite was to take fertility superfoods is to put them all in a fertility smoothie.
Maca is an incredible fertility super food. It helps to balance the hormones, but does not contain any hormones itself. It is able to do this by nourishing and balancing the endocrine system. This is essential in preparing for IVF because healthy hormonal balance contributes to healthier eggs.

Royal jelly and bee propolis are both super foods which help to increase the egg quality and quantities.
Royal jelly is the food that only the queen bee eats. What makes a queen bee the queen is eating royal jelly exclusively. She was an ordinary bee and then she was chosen and fed royal jelly and became the queen bee who lays up to 2000 eggs a day. It should be taken for at least two months before IVF procedures begin.
Royal jelly is the Queen bee’s equivalent of hormonal stimulation. Take daily for best results. Caution:: If you are allergic or think you are allergic to bee’s or bee products, do not take royal jelly or bee propolis.
Spirulina is nutrient rich algae. It contains antioxidants, minerals, and proteins that help to alkalinize the body and nourish your eggs. Take one tsp. of the powder daily.
Stress
We live in a fast paced world, and being a woman today has many blessings, one of them being a professional life. But are we constantly trying to hurry to meet all of our commitments?
What Dr. Allen Morgan and Dr. Douglas Rabin (reproductive medicine physicians) found is “what is not widely known is that stress also has a detrimental impact on fertility. Women who are constantly under stress produce prolactin, cortisol, and other hormones, which can interfere with or even block regular ovulation.”.
The types of stress they are talking about ranges from traumatic to less cataclysmic but still upsetting situations, such as an ongoing conflict at work.
So, if you are trying to improve your egg health, reducing your stress should be a focus of yours. How can this be achieved? Well first it needs to be a priority. Book some quiet time in your calendar for yourself. During your “quite time” you could:
- Go for a walk
- Take a bubble bath (my favorite)
- Cuddle up with a good book
- Get a professional massage or reflexology
- Drink some relaxing herbal tea, such as chamomile, kava kava, or peppermint
- Practice meditation
- Go to therapy
- See an NLP coach
‘In a study of women who were not ovulating, one group received cognitive behavior therapy and the other group was just observed. 80% of the women who received cognitive behavior therapy started to ovulate again. As apposed to only 25% from the randomized observation group.’
Relaxing takes practice. I see thousands of clients as a massage therapist and every one of my clients had to learn to relax. Make it a part of your day everyday to take a moment for yourself and relax.
