Progesterone Fertility Q&A

Hethir Rodriguez - Certified Herbalist and Nutritionist
July 13, 2021

To learn more about using progesterone for fertility visit the Fertility Progesterone Guide.

1. Q: How should you use progesterone if you are trying to conceive?
A:
The basic rule is to follow the instructions on the bottle. You want to mimic your natural cycle as much as possible.

For most uses you would begin to use progesterone by using this calculation:
Figure out the first day of your period (coming up next). Subtract two weeks. That day would be the first day you start using the progesterone cream.

The general suggested use for progesterone cream is 40mg of cream daily, applied in a split dose, 20mg in the morning and 20mg in the evening during the two weeks before your period as shared by progesterone expert Dr. John Lee in his book Dr. John Lee’s Hormone Balance Made Simple: The Essential How-to Guide to Symptoms, Dosage, Timing, and More. If actively trying to conceive, it is best to test for pregnancy before stopping progesterone cream a day or two before the expected period. Progesterone cream should be continued if pregnancy is confirmed while using it (with the guidance of your healthcare provider).

Example: An average cycle length is 28 – 30 days. In this case you would begin using progesterone around day 14 of your cycle, counting the first day of your period as day 1. If your cycle is shorter or longer than the given example, you would start two weeks before day one of when your period is due. If you have no period at all then you would choose a date and work from there.

2. Q: I have found out that my progesterone is low. What does this mean to my reproductive health?
A:
When saliva hormonal tests show low progesterone levels, that could indicate that you have not ovulated or that you are not producing the proper amount of progesterone after ovulation – which is called luteal insufficiency. The correct amount of progesterone after ovulation is very important for maintaining a healthy pregnancy.

In a study published in the Lancet, a group of 18 regularly cycling women, average age 29, seven of them (39%) were found to not be ovulating and were not producing progesterone.

3. Q: If someone has PCOS and/or doesn’t have a regular menstrual cycle, how do they know what days to take the progesterone on?
A:
In cases where your cycle is an 18- or 32-day cycle, starting on day 12 or 14 would not be good. To figure out when would be the best time for you to start and end your progesterone use get out a calendar…

Figure out what day 1 is of your cycle (this is when your next period is due). This is based on what your cycle is and what is normal for you. Then count backwards two weeks. That is when you start using the progesterone cream.

This works because despite the length of a cycle, the days between ovulation and day 1 of the period is consistently two weeks.

4. Q: Does progesterone cream benefit those of us with PCOS, without a regular cycle? Or are we better off just taking Vitex and/or Maca?
A: With PCOS, progesterone supplementation can help to make a big difference. It can seem confusing when you should use it since usage is based on a menstrual cycle. In this case, choosing your own cycle can help to establish a pattern. Mimicking a general cycle is best. Following the same suggested usage as someone who has a cycle, just choose your own and mark it on the calendar.

Vitex works great in conjunction with progesterone cream. Vitex is working on the underlying imbalance (which takes some time) while the progesterone helps in the current cycles.

5. Q: If I have an irregular cycle and don’t menstruate sometimes, how should I use progesterone cream?

A: Figure out what day 1 is of your cycle (this is when your next period is due). This is based on what your cycle is and what is normal for you. Then count backwards two weeks. That is when you start using the progesterone cream.

If you do not menstruate at all then you may want to check out our article on bringing your period back and talk with your health care provider to find out what the imbalance may be.

6. Q: I know that I am ovulating. Do I still need progesterone? Could my progesterone levels still be low?
A:
Depending on what your fertility issues have been in the past. Many women ovulate and then have a drop in progesterone levels after ovulation (the luteal phase). This may be the cause of recurrent miscarriages or the inability to get pregnant. One way to tell if this is happening is to start fertility charting.

Fertility charting or Basal Body Temperature charting can help to determine the availability of progesterone in the luteal phase. There will be a slight rise in temperature after ovulation has occurred and progesterone has increased and stay increased until the period is about to begin. It will then drop. If you are pregnant, the temperature will stay at its increased amount.

7. Q: Is it possible to conceive if I have low progesterone levels?

A: It is possible to conceive with low progesterone, but it may be more difficult. It may be hard to maintain a pregnancy if you have low progesterone. Please read the answer to the question before this one.

8. Q: How do I know if I have low progesterone?
A:
There are a couple of different ways to find out if you have low progesterone.
Hormones testing can be administered by a doctor, naturopath or through labs online. There are a couple of test options. Tests range from charting your menstrual and basal body temperature, finding out the length of your luteal phase, or taking saliva tests to find out your progesterone levels. The progesterone questionnaire on this page can help to point out signs of progesterone deficiency while these tests help to confirm it.

Naturopathic Doctor Lara Briden shares common signs of progesterone deficiency are: “short luteal phase, the time between ovulation and your period. It should be at least 11 days; low temperatures in the luteal phase; fertile mucus in the luteal phase; pPremenstrual spotting.”

BBT Charting
Basil Body Temperature charting can help to determine the availability of progesterone in the luteal phase. There will be a slight rise in temperature after ovulation has occurred and progesterone has increased.

Length of luteal phase
If the date of ovulation is fewer than 11 days before your period, this could suggest luteal phase defects. You can detect ovulation using BBT charting and/or by using ovulation detector strip tests.

Saliva Hormone Testing
Dr. John Lee was very adamant that testing for hormones and progesterone should be done through saliva testing, not blood testing (almost all doctors will test the blood). This is because a blood test may not show an accurate picture of available hormones. Most of the time the hormones in your body are not usable. They are tightly bound to proteins in the blood stream. Only 1-2% are bio available at a time to enter the tissues of the body. Blood tests measure only the total level of hormones in the bloodstream. Dr. Lee suggests saliva testing is more accurate because of the salivary gland being the one of the tissues that bioavailable hormones enter.

You can order an “at home” saliva test that you will take at a certain time during your cycle and then send away to a lab for analysis. They will then mail back the results so you can find out if you have any hormonal imbalances.

9. Q: Can I have both low progesterone and low estrogen?
A:
Yes. This sometimes shows up as a luteal phase defect.

10. Q: What is the difference between natural progesterone cream and progesterone that is prescribed by a doctor?
A:
Natural progesterone cream contains “bioidentical hormones”. These are hormones that are identical to the ones in your body. Most of the progesterone prescribed by doctors has been molecularly altered to create a kind of “pseudo-hormone” or a synthetic hormone. This is done so the drug is patent protected. Natural progesterone cannot be patented as it is natural. Since the structure of the progesterone has been altered in prescribed progesterone, it will not act the same in the body as natural progesterone and may cause dangerous side effects.

11. Q: Can I use wild yam cream instead of progesterone cream?
A:
Wild yam cream is not the same as progesterone cream. There is a substance called diosgenin in soybeans and wild yams that is extracted and then modified in a laboratory to create the progesterone found in progesterone creams. Your body is not able to turn diosgenin directly (from wild yam cream) into hormones itself.

12. Q: What is the difference between Fertilica Progesterone and Emerita Progesterone?
A:
We sell two different kinds of Progesterone Cream, the Fertilica (our brand) contains other herbs which we find important for hormonal balance and Emerita which is just plain progesterone cream. The Emerita is mostly for women who wish to use progesterone cream during pregnancy.

The progesterone in both products are formulated from a substance found in Mexican wild yams. United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) denotes a recognized standard of purity and strength. It is sometimes referred to as “human-identical” or “bio-identical” progesterone, which differentiates it from synthetic progestins. USP classifies the progesterone as the highest quality available. Both progesterone creams contain USP grade natural progesterone.

Fertilica Natural Progesterone cream contains 20mg of USP Progesterone per full pump. The bottle contains approximately 70 pumps of hormone balancing herbs. This product is mostly used by our customers while trying to conceive as it contains other beneficial hormone balancing herbs.

Emerita: Each 1/4 tsp contains approximately 20 mg of USP Progesterone. Mostly used by our customers during pregnancy since it is herb free.

13. Q: Which is the best to take if I have low progesterone… progesterone cream, maca or vitex?
A:
It depends on what is happening in your body. Here are some general guidelines to how each works:

Progesterone cream is a direct way to increase progesterone levels. This is helpful in the case of luteal phase defect, preventing recurrent miscarriages and reversing conditions such as endometriosis and ovarian cysts.

Maca is a nourishing food for the endocrine system, aiding both the pituitary, adrenal, and thyroid glands (all involved in hormonal balance.) Maca has the ability to affect key hormones in both women and men without containing hormones itself. In women, maca has been shown in studies to help regulate estrogen and increase progesterone (if that is what the body needs). In men, it has been shown to regulate estrogen and increase libido and sperm health.

Vitex has been found to help normalize ovulation, improve a short luteal phase and reduce Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), all known fertility inhibitors. In one study, vitex helped normalize progesterone levels and increased the luteal phase from 5.4 days to 11.4 days. In addition, two double-blind studies show vitex extract increases a woman’s fertility and chances of successful conception.

14. Q: Can you use both progesterone cream and vitex or maca?
A:
Yes, progesterone starts to have an effect the cycle that you start taking it. Vitex and maca both take time to have their effect. The previous question explains in detail the difference of the three. It is also not necessary to take all three. Every situation is unique and different.

15. Q: If I am using Maca to boost my progesterone should I stop taking it once I become pregnant?
A:
Maca has been used for thousands of years by the peoples of Peru, and they eat it daily, even during pregnancy. Acute toxicity and cytotoxicity studies have shown no potential toxicity for Maca. Hundreds of thousands of people have used maca with no reported side effects. That does not mean that maca should be continued into pregnancy though. There are currently no studies to prove that maca is safe for pregnancy, so it may be best to avoid taking it if you are pregnant. If you are already taking maca and are pregnant or plan on becoming pregnant, you can learn how to safely discontinue taking maca in early pregnancy by clicking here…

16. Q: I am using Vitex to increase my progesterone levels should I stop taking it once I become pregnant? Is it safe to take during pregnancy?
A:
Botanical Medicine for Women’s Health by Aviva Romm, MD states that vitex may be used safely in pregnancy up to the second trimester to help prevent miscarriage due to low progesterone levels. A placebo-controlled study was performed on pregnant rats, to see if taking vitex in pregnancy had a teratogenic or mutagenic effect on offspring. Results showed that even with vitex levels administered 74 times the dosage typically consumed by humans, no toxicity nor aberrations in fetal development of the rat offspring were seen. The Botanical Safety Handbook provides no contraindications to use vitex during pregnancy. To learn when and how to safely wean off of vitex in pregnancy, please click here…

While Vitex can be used to help a miscarriage that is acute, it is best to use at least 3 months prior to conception for pregnancy preparation. Once pregnancy is confirmed, it would be best to contact a natural health care practitioner to help determine where progesterone levels are at. If your doctor feels that you need extra progesterone support, they can help you transition from vitex use to natural progesterone cream use, which is a more reliable way to maintain stable progesterone levels.

17. Q: I have been taking progesterone and am now pregnant. How much progesterone should I use for pregnancy and how long should I use it for?
A:
While pregnant, it is best to work with your health care provider to help monitor and guide your progesterone usage. When you do become pregnant and you have been using progesterone, you want to make sure you do not stop taking it. A drop in progesterone levels can cause a spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) to occur.

In the first trimester of pregnancy, progesterone production is the sole responsibility of the ovaries, which can fail to produce sufficient levels to maintain the pregnancy. By the second trimester, the placenta itself is responsible for producing progesterone, and it hikes the level of this hormone to 486% higher than the non-pregnant norm.

If you are taking progesterone and get pregnant, you must continue taking progesterone until at least the 16th week. I personally would not stop if I had seriously low levels to begin with. But it is best to work with your health care practitioner if this is the case. They will continuously monitor your levels to make sure they are healthy for pregnancy.

18. Q: Is progesterone cream safe to take while on the Fertility Cleanse?
A:
If you have been taking progesterone cream before starting the Fertility Cleanse, then continue to use the cream as you have been.

If you are starting the Fertility Cleanse and progesterone cream at the same time, I would suggest that you wait and begin the cream after your cleanse. The reason for this is that the Fertility Cleanse has a lot of different herbs that are going to be working on the endocrine system. It will be hard to monitor yourself and see how the progesterone is affecting you. Starting the progesterone cream the cycle after you have completed the Fertility Cleanse makes it easier to see how you are doing with the progesterone.

19. Q: Does it matter whether natural progesterone cream is made out of soy or wild yam?
A:
No. There is a substance called diosgenin in soybeans and wild yams that is extracted and then modified in a laboratory to create the progesterone found in progesterone creams. Your body is not able to turn diosgenin directly into hormones itself. So taking just a soy supplement or using wild yam cream will not have the effects that progesterone cream does. It can be confusing because of soy’s phytoestrogen ability to have estrogen-like effects. But those come from a different part of the plant, which is accepted by your body.

20. Q: What is the difference between progesterone and progestins?
A:
Progestins are a synthetic form of progesterone. While progesterone found in progesterone creams is natural and identical to the progesterone in your body, natural progesterone is much safer to use than progestins, which can have serious side effects. During the third trimester of the pregnancy the placenta naturally produces 300-400mg of progesterone daily. If progestins were given to the mother in that same dosage, serious birth defects could occur.

21. Q: Are there any side effects from using progesterone cream?
A:
It is rare but, yes, there can be. Large doses (100mg) of progesterone can cause side effects, sleepiness, loss of libido, mild depression, exacerbated symptoms of estrogen deficiency, and serious hormonal imbalances.

If you take progesterone out of phase, then it may cause the timing of your period to change or spotting to occur.

The best way to avoid these side effects is to make sure to use the progesterone cream as directed, at the correct time of your cycle and not to exceed the recommend amount (10-30mg per application) or to work with a health care practitioner so your progesterone levels can be monitored.

22. Q: Can too much progesterone cause a light period?
A:
It is hard to say, as there are many factors that can affect your cycle. The timing of when you use progesterone is very important. Taking it the wrong time can cause the cycle to be different. The best way to make sure you are using the cream at the right time is to calculate your progesterone start date by counting two weeks backwards from when your period is due.

23. Q: I have been using progesterone and am now spotting between periods. This never happened before? What is happening? Is it the progesterone?
A: Spotting could be from a variety of reasons… The most common is a too high dose of progesterone.

The second common is that your timing may be off. If your cycle has been 24 days for years and changes to a 28-day cycle after you’ve began using progesterone cream this could be a sign of changes happening or a confused body. The best way to make sure you are using the cream at the right time is to calculate your progesterone start date by counting two weeks backwards from when your period is due.

The third common reason for spotting is that when the body is making hormonal shifts it sometimes gets out of wack for a cycle or two as it is shifting to its new cycle.

24. Q: Can I use progesterone cream if I am on birth control pills?

A: We do not know for sure, but it would be best to not mix hormones or use herbal products that can have an impact on your hormones while on birth control. An educated guess is that the birth control would block the progesterone from the receptor sites, but we do not know.

25. Q: I am preparing for an IVF and will be taking medications. Can I use progesterone cream?
A:
We would not recommend it. When you are preparing for IVF you will be prescribed a very specific hormonal protocol. It would be very dangerous to use anything with hormonal effects during that time. Speak with your doctor if you feel you have low progesterone levels.

26. Q: I am breastfeeding, can I use progesterone cream? What is the recommended usage?
A: Progesterone cream is not generally recommended postpartum or while breastfeeding. It has been shown to be helpful for the baby blues/postpartum depression though. Talk to your doctor about this, especially if you are breastfeeding as some evidence shows that progesterone can prevent lactation from occurring.

27. Q: Can using progesterone cream prevent menopause from happening?
A:
No.

Here are my top 5 ⤵️

Men experience fertility issues just as frequently as women do. The good news is it’s a lot simpler to address male fertility as they only have a handful of causes of imbalance. 

Herbs are a great way to support male fertility naturally (in addition to a nutrient dense diet). These are my top herbs for male fertility...

🧜‍♂️ American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) - A traditional rejuvenation tonic for men, American ginseng nourishes and supports the nervous system, immune function, and proper hormonal balance. It may support healthy 🍆 drive and performance.

🧜‍♂️ Tribulus (Tribulus terrestris) – Traditionally used in both traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda, Tribulus supports normal count, motility and morphology, improves 🍆 function. Tribulus is known to help increase luteinizing hormone (LH), DHEA and encourages normal testosterone production- all factors which influence sp3rm quality and health.

🧜‍♂️ Maca root (Lepidium meyenii)– A tonic for the hormonal system, maca supports and nourishes the hypothalamus and thyroid, encouraging normal sp3rm health as well as 🍆function/libido, increased energy, stamina, and mental clarity.

🧜‍♂️ Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens) – Nourishing to the entire endocrine system, saw palmetto supports overall reproductive function in men. Men with low sp3rm count, low libido, stress, who are irritable or experiencing anxiety, who have poor immune function, poor lifestyle and dietary habits have shown to benefit from this herb.

🧜‍♂️ Yohimbe bark (Pausinystalia yohimbe) – Found to support healthy male drive and increase circulation to the male reproductive organs, yohimbe helps to sustain an 🍆 naturally.

What to eat for fertility...

Nutrition can make a big difference when you are wanting to prepare for pregnancy, support hormonal health or overcome fertility issues. 

But it can sometimes be hard to start new habits. 

One of my favorite ways to make lasting dietary changes is to focus on what you can add instead of only the things you shouldn’t be eating.

There are 5 specific things I have my clients add to their current diets every day. 

🍌What they found after about 21 days of eating this way, they started to not only crave healthier foods, their body was giving them positive feedback through lighter cycles, better digestion, clearer skin and more energy. ⚡

While eating healthy is something you will need to do for the rest of your life, doing a challenge like this helps to give you a great jump start.

Healthier periods by next cycle... 💁‍♀️

You don’t have to have a painful period every month.

There are a hand full of causes which I cover in-depth on my website.

All of the causes can be impacted through dietary changes and adding some self-care therapies.

✨ If I were to pick just ONE to start with it would be Womb Care Castor oil packs and switching to a whole food plant based diet. Okay, that’s two, but these two steps could transform your period in just a cycle or two.

Here are some other tips to try out as well.

Dietary changes to make:
1. Stop eating added sugars and sugary foods (candy, cakes, soda, etc).
2. Reduce or stop drinking caffeine and alcohol.
3. Stop eating fried foods and foods cooked in oils (avocado, olive, coconut are okay).
4. Eat a predominately plant based diet for it’s anti-inflammatory and fiber benefits.
5. Reduce or cut out red meat consumption.

Self-care therapies to add:
1. Womb Care Castor Oil Packs
2. Fertility Cleanse 2x per year
3. Add acupressure to your daily routine.

This is one of the main causes of fertility issues....

Exposure to excessive hormones from our environment.

Yep. These compounds, known as ENDOCRINE DISRUPTORS, are causing hormonal imbalances which are negatively affecting our ability to ovulate.

They also negatively affect EGG health and sperm count.

♻️ These environmental factors include plastics (with BPA being one of the most commonly known), body care and hair care products, household cleaners, and even fragrance candles.

 🛀 These environmental factors cause us to have repeated micro exposure to xenoestrogens on a daily basis, without even knowing it.

These xenoestrogens mimic estrogen in the body but in a potent way, causing a hormonal imbalance which can contribute to the growth of uterine fibroids, endometriosis, heavy periods, and painful periods – all of these are linked to excess of estrogen within the body.

So, how do we deal with this? First, we cleanse and detoxify the body.

By supporting the body’s natural ability to eliminate these compounds and excess hormones, we can significantly alleviate the hormonal imbalance.

 👉 This can be done with The Fertility Cleanse Kit. 

Next, we need to eliminate the triggers from our lifestyle. This includes switching out products that contain phthalates, parabens, and endocrine disruptors for natural alternatives.

❗This includes everything from hair care, skincare, body care, household cleaners, to laundry and dish detergent. 

Thank goodness companies are responding to the need for “clean products” and creating effective and healthier alternatives. 

 🥦 Finally, nourishing ourselves with supportive foods is important for fertility and overall health. Consuming a diet rich in whole-foods provides our body with necessary vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids.

Eating a balanced diet consisting of organic vegetables, legumes, nuts/seeds, and healthy fats can provide the support needed to keep hormone levels balanced.

The only advice the Dr gave me was to wait and see...

My fertility journey started out of pure frustration. 

And from that day forward a fire was lit and has been roaring ever since. 

You see, I was miscarrying and all the doctor gave me as a solution was.... to wait and see. 

I bet you know all too well how this feels.

Maybe it wasn’t a pregnancy loss, but was a lack of diagnosis, or a lack of empathy. Or even a lack of believing you when you say something doesn’t seem right. 

That is why I never want you to feel like I did that day. 

That’s why I show up here everyday to share with you everything I know... EVERY WAY I know to support your fertility. 

If you have ever felt LET DOWN AND ALONE along your fertility journey, know that you have options. Know there ARE things you can do to impact your reproductive health. 

If you are ready to take an empowered path to pregnancy. One with options and action. Let me know.

Why 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.

5 Signs You Might not be ovulating 👇

Ovulation is key when trying to get pregnant, but many women assume they are ovulating just because they have a period. 

Only 13% of women TTC know their fertile times.

Here are signs you might not be ovulating and how to confirm:

🚩Low to no cervical mucous - Cervical mucus changes throughout your cycle, becoming clear and stretchy around ovulation. If you notice little to no cervical mucus, it could be a sign of ovulatory issues

🚩Short fertility cycles (< 24 days)- Menstrual cycles shorter than 22 days may indicate that ovulation is not occurring or is happening too early, which can affect fertility

🚩Long fertility cycles (> 35 days) - Long cycles can be a sign of irregular or absent ovulation.

🚩Low body weight (BMI <18.5) - Being underweight can disrupt hormone levels, leading to irregular periods or even stopping ovulation altogether

🚩Irregular or absent periods - If your periods are irregular or you miss them altogether, it might be a sign of anovulation

But let’s not assume. 

Here is how to know IF and WHEN you are ovulating. ⤵️

Track your basal body temperature 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.

✔️Once you start charting, you’ll notice patterns. Typically, you’ll see lower temperatures before ovulation and higher ones after. The day your temperature spikes is likely the day after you’ve ovulated.

Use the feedback your body gives you to KNOW exactly how to support your reproductive health.

The Natural Fertility Formula teaches these tools in detail and gives you the foundation to improve YOUR fertility. 

You are THE expert on your own body. Let’s translate what it is telling you and get started today.

Plant Foods to Embrace:

🥦 Cruciferous Vegetables

Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, kale, and cauliflower are not only nutrient-dense but also contain compounds such as indole-3-carbinol, which has been shown to support hormonal balance and may alleviate period pain.

A study in the Journal of Nutrition highlighted that these vegetables could modulate estrogen metabolism, potentially reducing the risk of estrogen-related conditions.

🌶 Iron-Rich Foods

Leafy greens and legumes are pivotal for replenishing iron lost during menstruation, especially important for those experiencing heavy bleeding. The non-heme iron found in plant foods, while not as readily absorbed as heme iron from animal products, can still significantly contribute to iron levels when consumed with vitamin C-rich foods to enhance absorption.

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reported that vegetarians who consume a variety of plant foods are not at any greater risk of iron deficiency than non-vegetarians.

It`s a myth that plant-based diets cannot provide enough iron; foods like lentils, chickpeas, and spinach are excellent sources.

🌰 Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids, found in flaxseeds and walnuts, are known for their anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce menstrual cramps. A study in the Journal of Reproductive Health suggested that omega-3 supplementation could lessen menstrual pain. Incorporating these into a plant-based diet can offer a natural approach to managing period discomfort.

🌾 Whole Grains

Quinoa, brown rice, and oats are not only filling but also provide B vitamins and fiber, aiding in digestion and hormonal regulation. Whole grains can help stabilize blood sugar levels, which is crucial for maintaining hormonal balance.

The fiber in whole grains also plays a role in binding excess hormones and removing them from the body, as indicated in research from the Journal of Nutrition.

Age isn’t the only factor...

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.

In addition, having healthy fertility is based on many additional aspects to consider, including:

➡️ Proper circulation
➡️ A healthy fertility cycle
➡️ Balanced hormones

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.

📌 Type EGG in the comments below and I will send you my 90 Day Egg Health Checklist which goes into depth each of the steps you need to take to support egg health.
