🌱 OvaWise Antioxidants: A blend of 5 antioxidants that studies have shown to increase egg health, implantation and embryo development.
How to use: Use daily for at least 3+ months before ttc or IUI/IVF.
🌱 DIM Complete: DIM is short for (diindolylmethane), a plant compound found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, kale and cabbage. DIM supports the body’s natural ability to maintain healthy estrogen metabolism.
How to use: Use daily until desired results are received.
🌱 Fertility Superfoods: Is a blend of the fertility superfoods that help to support hormone health and reduce the negative effects of stress on hormone balance. The blend includes Maca root, royal jelly, Schizandra, ashwagandha, cinnamon and cacao.
How to use: take one scoop in the morning mixed with water or plant based milk. Take daily until positive pregnancy test.
🌱 Reproductive Support Tea: contains herbs that support, tone, and nourish the female reproductive system while supporting hormone balance. It is a great herbal blend for general overall fertility support from regular cycles to a healthy uterus.
How to use: Drink 1 cup of tea daily. Hot or cold. I like to make a quart at a time and drink over the next 4 days.
🌱 Vitex Boost: Vitex angus castus, also known as Chaste Tree Berry, is one of the most popular and beneficial herbs for women’s fertility and menstrual health.
Traditionally used to help support hormone production and maintain a healthy menstrual cycle, vitex is able to support hormonal balance in the body without containing any hormones itself. It is one of my go-to’s for supporting regular ovulation, irregular cycles or high prolactin levels.
How to use: Use daily, all month long. Wean off once you are pregnant.

Here’s what science says…
Antioxidant therapy is one of the most effective ways to support egg health. There are 5 specific antioxidants that can dramatically improve your odds when ttc over 35. By focusing on antioxidant therapy and supporting your egg health for a minimum of 90 days you can make the journey towards conception less about age and more about the right nutritional support.
Here are the superstart antioxidants to focus on and how to get them in one supplement…
💎 PQQ (pyrroloquinoline-quinine)
PQQ is an antioxidant known for its cell-protective qualities. It’s particularly good at reducing oxidative stress and the aging effects on cells. It enhances ovarian function and egg quality.
💎 NAC (N-acetylcysteine)
N-acetylcysteine, or NAC, plays a significant role in supporting embryo quality. It provides a defense against oxidative stress.
💎 L Glutathione
L Glutathione is known for its ability to guard against oxidative stress. It also supports the detoxification processes in the ovaries. This ensures a healthier environment for oocytes.
💎 ALA (alpha lipoic acid)
ALA, supports egg quality, fertilization rates, and embryo development. It works by enhancing the quality of the oocytes. This contributes to better fertilization outcomes and embryo health.
💎 Selenium
Selenium is an essential mineral. It plays a key role in protecting against oxidative stress. It’s known to improve oocyte production and increase follicle count. Selenium also supports glutathione production, an antioxidant critical for reproductive health.
How to use antioxidants for egg health ⬇️
The key to getting results with antioxidants is to have them circulating in the body continuously. They are not stored by the body and are “spent” when they protect the egg cells against free radicals. This requires daily supplementation. That is why I formulated OvaWise Antioxidants to provide all key 5 antioxidants in one supplement. You can take OvaWise all month long and use them in conjunction with other herbs and supplements.

Fertility Myths about ovulation
👉🏽 Myth #1: Period = ovulation
Fact: Regular periods can occur without ovulation. A period is the uterine lining shedding, not the loss of the egg.
👉🏽 Myth #2: Positive OPK test guarantees ovulation
Fact: Ovulation tests detect the LH surge, indicating your body is preparing to ovulate, but they do not confirm that ovulation has occurred. Confirming ovulation typically requires tracking basal body temperature or hormone levels.
👉🏽 Myth #3: You can only get pregnant on the day you ovulate
Fact: The fertile window can be up to 6 days, including the days leading up to and the day of ovulation, due to sperm’s ability to survive in the female reproductive tract for several days.
👉🏽 Myth #4: Having s3x everyday increases your chances of pregnancy
Fact: While regular intercourse is important, having sex every day can decrease sperm quality. It’s more effective to have sex every 2-3 days during the fertile window.
👉🏽 Myth #5: You always ovulate on day 14 of your cycle
Fact: Ovulation can vary widely among women and even from cycle to cycle. It typically occurs 10-16 days before the start of the next period.
How to know IF and WHEN you are ovulating. ⤵️
Track your basal body temperature daily.
▶️ Measure first thing in the morning.
▶️ Use an app, chart, or digital tool.
▶️ Look for patterns: lower temps before ovulation, higher after.
What your chart says about your fertility:
✔️ BBT tracking can confirm ovulation. - A sustained rise in temperature typically indicates ovulation, crucial for timing intercourse for conception.
✔️Once you start charting, you’ll see patterns. Lower temperatures before ovulation and higher ones after. The day your temperature spikes is likely the day after you’ve ovulated.
Use your body’s feedback to support your reproductive health. The Natural Fertility Formula teaches these tools in detail and gives you the foundation to improve YOUR fertility.

How Fertility Cleansing works ⤵️
As an herbalist, I find that cleansing is one of the most effective natural therapies I use.
✨ The body is constantly working to eliminate the old to make space for the new.
By incorporating cleansing herbs to support this natural function, you can accelerate the benefits and enhance overall health.
When it comes to reproductive health, the advantages of cleansing are particularly significant.
This is the recipe for healthy fertility:
📌 Hormone Health + Uterine Health
Fertility cleansing specifically targets these two crucial aspects, ensuring that your body is in the best possible condition for conception.
Why Cleansing Works:
🌿 Supports Natural Detoxification: Cleansing herbs assist the liver and other detox organs in removing toxins more efficiently.
🌿 Balances Hormones: By eliminating endocrine disruptors and excess hormones, cleansing helps to restore hormonal balance.
🌿Enhances Uterine Health: Cleansing helps to clear out old, stagnant blood and tissue, preparing the uterus for a healthy lining and successful implantation.
Fertility Cleansing focuses on these key areas to provide a comprehensive approach to reproductive health.
By supporting your body’s natural processes, you can create an optimal environment for conception and a healthy pregnancy.
That is why this is one of the first steps of my Natural Fertility Formula.
✨✨If you are ready to start supporting your hormone health and fertility this is a great place to start.

Here is what I would do ⤵️
If I was experiencing heavy periods here is how I would use castor oil packs...
I would first make sure the castor oil I was using is the following:
📌 Organic: Choose only organic castor oil for purity.
📌 Glass Bottle: Opt for glass storage to maintain quality.
📌 Chemical-Free: Ensure it’s hexane and chemical-free.
📌 Enhanced with Essential Oils: Look for oils that include therapeutic essential oils for added benefits.
My recommended castor oil is Womb Care Castor Oil. I formulated this castor oil to be used specifically for reproductive health in mind.
Timing is key when using castor oil for heavy periods:
👉 Use 3-4 times a week, all month long. Take a break during your period.
👉 If you’re trying to conceive, use only after your period ends and pause after ovulation.
👉 Apply for at least 30 minutes per session.
How castor oil packs work for heavy periods...
✅ Support detoxification through the lymphatic system
✅ Boost uterine health by improving circulation
✅ Reduce inflammation and discomfort
How to apply a Womb Care Castor Oil Pack...
1️⃣ Fold a cotton flannel in half and apply 1-2 tablespoons of Womb Care Therapeutic Castor Oil to it.
2️⃣ Place the pack over your reproductive system (lower abdomen) or liver area (right side of abdomen, just below ribcage).
3️⃣ Cover it with our Fertilica Castor Oil Wrap. If you don’t have our wrap, use a towel and a heating pad instead.
4️⃣ Relax with your castor oil pack for 30-60 minutes.
For optimal results, we recommend applying our Womb Care Therapeutic Castor Oil Packs 3-4 times per week, using a fresh application of oil for each session.
After removing the pack, cleanse your skin with soap. Store the cotton flannel in the provided bag.
For added benefits, enhance your experience with our Fertilica Therapeutic Essential Oil blends.
There is no need to wash the pack between uses. Replace the cotton flannel every couple of months.
For added benefits, enhance your experience with our Fertilica™ Therapeutic Essential Oil blends.

4 ways to boost your fertility...
I don’t share these numbers to stress you out.
I share these numbers because there is something you can to support each of these areas of fertility.
Here is a quick rundown>>>
1. Yes it is true that high cortisol levels (stress hormone) can cause ovulation to stop. Studies have also found that specific herbs can actually reduce cortisol levels and restore ovulation.
▶️ Type STRESS If this sounds like something you need and I will send you a link to my formula which contains the herbs studies have shown to reduce cortisol.
2. This means 87% of women don’t know when their most fertile time is. Do you know how many days a month you can get pregnant? Do you know IF and WHEN you are ovulating?
▶️ If the answer is no type CHART in the comments below and I will send you my guide to fertility charting so you can ✨ pinpoint the best time to be trying for a baby✨.
3. While 99% of the people who reach out to us are women, men need fertility support just as much. Both partners should be working towards healthier fertility in preparation for pregnancy. I have resources for both women and men on my website (even though most of my reels are for women).
4. Again knowing when you ovulate is the key to this.

Breakthrough fertility therapy...
Womb Care castor oil packs have become one of my top recommendations for supporting reproductive health.
Not only are castor oil packs relaxing and easy to use but there are many benefits to using castor oil packs for reproductive health, such as….
➡️ Reducing inflammation
The anti-inflammatory properties of castor oil have been proven to help alleviate inflammation in the area where it is applied. Considering many fertility issues (PCOS, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, failed IVF) are linked to high inflammatory markers, reducing inflammation is undoubtedly a priority for those looking to improve reproductive health.
➡️ Increasing circulation
Castor oil has the power to enhance circulation in the reproductive system, or where the pack is placed. This increased blood flow helps bring fresh, oxygen-rich, and nutrient-loaded blood to the region while aiding in detoxification and cleansing.
➡️ Body detoxification
Castor oil promotes lymphatic draining, one of the body’s primary detoxification systems. Castor oil is one of the few external therapies that can stimulate the lymphatic system to drain, which is exceptionally beneficial in reducing inflammation, aiding detoxification, and supporting reproductive health.
➡️ Pain relief
Another impressive feature of castor oil packs is the ability to alleviate discomfort and pain. Castor oil accomplishes this through a compound that reduces pain-causing prostaglandins and increases pain-reducing prostaglandins. This is beneficial, especially for those suffering from endometriosis or painful periods.
How to use Womb Care Castor Oil Packs:
👉 Use 3-4 times a week, all month long.
👉 If you’re trying to conceive, pause use after ovulation.
👉 Apply for at least 30 minutes per session.

There is no need to “wait and see”...
You can improve your fertility with natural therapies and lifestyle changes.
Here are the top 5 most important things to do.
✨ Clear detoxification pathways - The time while you are preparing for conception is one of the most important times to create a healthy body in preparation for pregnancy. Fertility cleansing is a way to support the body in preparation for conception by cleansing the uterus and liver.
Through the use of herbs, The Fertility Cleanse encourages the liver to cleanse the body of toxins and excess hormones from the body while increasing circulation to the uterus.
✨ Nourish your eggs - As we age and live our lives throughout the years, our eggs are being exposed to the environment within our body.
High oxidative stress, nutritional deficiency, and lack of circulation all impact the health of our egg cells over time.
✨ Increase circulation to your reproductive system - What does this mean exactly? It means lots of benefits for egg health and uterine lining.
Some great ways to increase circulation to the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries is through Self Fertility Massage and Womb Care Castor Oil Packs.
✨ Know your fertile window - knowing WHEN or IF you are ovulating will be very important to getting pregnant sooner than later. There are many tools you can use to confirm this.
I personally like fertility charting because it not only pinpoints ovulation but can also give you feedback on other areas of your fertility such as progesterone or thyroid health.
✨ Reduce stress and create a “receptive” uterine lining - I know, I know, being told to “relax” while ttc can make you grind your teeth, there is major benefits to reducing cortisol levels while ttc.
Consistently high cortisol can prevent ovulation, and that is a no go around here. Exercising, yoga, meditation and tonic herbs (hello Fertility Superfoods) are my favorite ways to nurture my nervous system. Try different things out and find your b l i s s.

Here are 5 steps to improve egg health...
In the past, a common belief was that the only factor which determines ovarian and egg health was age.
There are many factors that can have an impact on the health of the ovaries and eggs including environmental factors, hormones in the diet, and stress, just to name a few.
💎 Egg health is one of the cornerstones of healthy fertility. The health of your eggs (ova) can affect whether or not fertilization and implantation will occur as well as the viability of a pregnancy.
💎 Age has an impact on egg health as the ovaries continued to age, causing the “housing” for the eggs as well as the environment in the body affecting egg cell health.
💎 Protecting the eggs you currently have as well as encouraging ovarian health through diet, herbs, supplements, and increased circulation to the reproductive system is of the utmost importance.
Egg health is one of the cornerstones of healthy fertility.
The health of your eggs (ova) can affect whether or not fertilization and implantation will occur as well as the viability of a pregnancy.
During the cycle of an egg’s journey towards ovulation, there is a window of opportunity, a period of time, when certain factors can affect the health of the eggs that are preparing for ovulation. ⏳
This journey takes about 90 days.
The steps you take today will impact the health of your eggs 3 MONTHS from now.
That is why I talk so much about taking a MINIMUM of 90 days to prepare for pregnancy or IVF/IUI.
🙂 Good News! There are steps you can take to help support the health of your eggs.
Here are 5 areas to focus on for improving egg health:
➡️ Detoxification
➡️ Nutrition
➡️ Antioxidant therapy
➡️ Increasing circulation & reducing inflammation
➡️ Hormone health

👉 This is how I make my sea moss gel..
1️⃣ Gather Ingredients & Tools:
1 cup (35g) raw dried sea moss
51 fl oz (1½ liters) water for washing and soaking
1 cup (240ml) water for blending
A blender or food processor
A large bowl
A clean glass jar with a lid
2️⃣ Clean & Rinse:
Add the dried sea moss to a large bowl with a few cups of spring water.
Massage gently with your fingers to remove any dirt or debris. The water will turn cloudy.
Rinse and drain the sea moss thoroughly.
3️⃣ Soak:
Place the cleaned sea moss back into the bowl and cover it with plenty of spring water.
Allow it to soak for 12-24 hours. This helps soften and hydrate the sea moss, turning it lighter in color.
4️⃣ Blend:
Drain the soaked sea moss and add it to a blender with 1 cup of fresh water.
Blend until smooth. For a looser consistency, add more water gradually, one tablespoon at a time.
5️⃣ Store:
Pour the blended gel into a sealable glass jar.
Refrigerate for up to 2-3 weeks. It will thicken as it chills.
For longer storage, freeze in ice cube trays and transfer cubes to a freezer bag once solid.
If you don’t want to make your own sea moss, it is one of the foods in our FertiliGreens blend which mixes easily with water or can be added to smoothies.

You only have 6 days per month...
Did you know only about 13% of women are aware of their most fertile times during their menstrual cycle. This gap in knowledge is not just a statistic; it’s a significant barrier for those trying to conceive or aiming to understand their reproductive health better.
Let’s fix that statistic real quick.
Here is how to know IF and WHEN you are ovulating. ⤵️
Track your basal body temperature everyday and track the number daily.
▶️ Measure your temp. first thing when you wake each morning.
▶️ Use an app, chart printed online or a digital tracking tool.
▶️ Take a look at the pattern created through consistent daily tracking.
What your chart says about your fertility:
✔️ BBT tracking can confirm ovulation. - A sustained rise in temperature typically indicates that ovulation has occurred. This is crucial for timing intercourse for conception.
✔️ BBT can hint at potential hormonal imbalances. - For instance, consistently low temperatures throughout your cycle might suggest an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), as thyroid hormones play a significant role in regulating metabolism and body temperature
Erratic temperature patterns could signal thyroid overactivity (hyperthyroidism) or adrenal issues.
Also, the length and pattern of your BBT chart’s phases—the follicular phase before ovulation and the luteal phase after—can offer clues about your reproductive health.
✔️ A short luteal phase, for example, might indicate low progesterone levels, which can affect your ability to maintain a pregnancy.
✔️ An extended follicular phase could suggest challenges with egg maturation or release, potentially pointing to conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
Once you start charting, you’ll notice patterns. Typically, you’ll see lower temperatures before ovulation and higher ones after. The day after your temperature spikes is likely the day after you’ve ovulated.
Now that you have this powerful tool in your box you are ready for the next step....

🌱Balance your HORMONES naturally 👇
Here are 3 practical and affect ways to support your hormonal health.
One of the keys to see the best results is to stay consistent and learn as much about your body as you can.
1️⃣ Use liver supporting herbs
Herbs such as milk thistle have been shown to help the liver in it’s natural ability to get rid of toxins and chemicals in the body.
This can make a big difference when it comes to hormone balance.
2️⃣ Do the Fertility Cleanse 1-2x per year
Support the body in it’s natural ability to get rid of excess hormones by doing a fertility cleanse.
3️⃣ Stop using skin care and cleaning products that contain hormone mimicking chemicals
Xenohormones mimic estrogen in the body and can cause imbalance.

How to use nutrition to reduce excess estrogen...
Estrogen dominance or “too much estrogen” has been linked to many fertility issues.
It can contribute to:
❗ Low progesterone
❗ Uterine fibroids
❗ Thick uterine lining
❗ PMS
❗ Male fertility issues
❗ and so much more...
The causes are multiple, but the good news is there are solutions.... AND nutrition is one of the most effective.
Here are 6 foods that reduce estrogen dominance:
🌱 Broccoli:
Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, turnip greens, Bok choy, wasabi, Brussels sprouts, kale, cabbage, greens, and cauliflower, which are high in indole-3-carbinol and diindolylmethane (DIM) that help regulate estrogen metabolism.
🌱 Flax Seed:
Eating foods high in fiber, lignins and omega 3’s are all important for reducing excess estrogens. Flax is a great source of all these nutrients. 1-2 Tablespoons a day, ground is all you need.
🌱 Leafy Greens:
Eat foods high in vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and folate and leafy greens are some of the best sources. Think spinach, kale, swiss chart, etc.
🌱 Legumes & beans:
Legumes and beans are both foods high in fiber (and a bunch of other fertility supportive nutrients). Fiber helps the body to get rid of excess estrogen from the body. They also help you to stay regular which is important to prevent estrogen from recirculating.
🌱 Maca:
One of my favorite herbs to help with estrogen balance. It supports the endocrine function and helps with hormone balance.
🌱 Whole grains:
Foods like brown rice, quinoa, millet, etc are all foods that are rich in fiber and b vitamins. Both important for estrogen metabolism - helping to regulate estrogen levels.
Adding these foods to your diet is a great step to begin overcoming estrogen dominance.
What step do I recommend after this? ⤵️
Fertility Cleansing.
Fertility cleansing is a great way to support the liver’s natural ability to get rid of toxins – including xenoestrogens.
