HEALTHY HABITS FOR A FERTILE FUTURE
2
BALANCED DIET
A well-rounded and nutritious diet plays a
crucial role in fertility. Focus on consuming a
variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean
proteins, and healthy fats. Incorporate foods
rich in antioxidants, such as berries, leafy
greens, nuts, and seeds, as they can help protect
your reproductive cells from damage.
3
REGULAR EXERCISE
Engaging in regular physical activity can help
regulate hormones, manage weight, and improve
circulation all of which are important for
fertility. Aim for at least 150 minutes of
moderate-intensity exercise per week, which can
include activities like walking, jogging,
swimming, or yoga.
4
STRESS MANAGEMENT
Chronic stress can negatively impact
reproductive health by affecting hormone levels.
Practice stress-reducing techniques such as
meditation, deep breathing, mindfulness, or
engaging in hobbies you enjoy. Finding healthy
ways to manage stress can improve your overall
well-being and fertility.
5
ADEQUATE SLEEP
Prioritize getting 7-9 hours of quality sleep
each night. Sleep is essential for hormone
regulation, metabolism, and overall bodily
functions. Consistent, restful sleep supports
your reproductive system and general health.
6
LIMIT CAFFEINE AND ALCOHOL
While moderate caffeine consumption is generally
considered safe, excessive intake may impact
fertility. Similarly, heavy alcohol consumption
can disrupt hormonal balance and impair
fertility. It's advisable to limit both caffeine
and alcohol intake if you're trying to conceive.
7
REGULAR HEALTH CHECK-UPS
Schedule regular visits with your healthcare
provider for comprehensive check-ups. This helps
identify and address any underlying health issues
that might affect fertility, such as thyroid
disorders or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
