Preconception Planning
We were always taught that getting pregnant was easy. Well, that’s not always the case.
Getting pregnant has become a struggle for many couples trying to conceive. We are here to help support you.
We work with both male and female partner to optimize their health prior to conception.
Fertility is a whole body issue and we treat it this way
Our goal is to work with couples for a minimum 3-6 months prior to conception as it takes oocytes approximately 100 days to mature and sperm about 75 days. But we often work with clients at any stage in their fertility journey. The changes you make now affect not only fertility outcomes but can help support the health of your child.
It’s important to take into consideration that while our genetic makeup is passed to our offspring, so is our toxic burden. Cleaning up our bodies terrain can be helpful to your child before they are even born.
We support preconception planning by:
Hormone testing and blood lab analysis / Treating underlying conditions (PCOS, low thyroid, hormonal imbalance) / Nutrition and lifestyle recommendations to support egg/sperm quality/ Detoxification from environmental toxin and food exposures / Post birth control syndrome/ Support before egg retrieval/ IVF/IUI and Treating the whole person, because Fertility is a whole body issue.
Are you thinking about starting IVF/IUI? Let us help prepare your body in order to increase egg/sperm quality, help improve success, and optimize your fertility.
Keep in mind— This is not a quick fix or magic pill. It can take time and effort…But it's worth it :)
Preconception Cleanse
Our kids are facing increasing rates of allergies, eczema, autism, ADHD, obesity, metabolic conditions and autoimmune diseases.
Environmental health studies show that environmental toxins play a role in the incidence and prevalence of many of these health conditions.
Our babies get more than just our genetics. Through maternal-fetal transfer, they can receive some of the body burden of chemicals we have accumulated throughout our own lives as well as what we are exposed to in pregnancy.
Endocrine disruptors found in many plastics, cleaners and cosmetic products can affect the function of hormones in our bodies. Which can affect fertility as well as the fetus during pregnancy.
We live in a toxic world and we can’t avoid all exposures but there are lifestyle choices we can change to help limit exposure and support detoxification processes. Our body is always “detoxing” so supporting it can be helpful!
Benefits of a cleanse:
Supports hormone balance
Supports detox of environmental, occupational and food exposures
Helps lose weight
Supports nutrient status
So what’s stopping us?
Well, It really depends on timing. Detoxing has some great benefits but it is NOT advised while pregnant or close to conception time.
You should start 4-6 months prior to the planned conception time. This allows 2-3 months between the end of detoxing and when you get pregnant.
If you don’t have 4-6 months, what do you do? Work on diet and lifestyle changes.
This can look like: eating clean/organic/ anti-inflammatory foods, choosing clean beauty products, non-toxic household products (they are very sneaky), using filtered water, glass over plastic when you can, clean toothpaste, air purifier at home/office etc. This is really the best place to start either way!
Working with a professional takes the guesswork out, allows for safer practices, professional grade products and support during this time.
Remember QUALITY MATTERS when it comes to products and supplements.
Should you “detox” before getting pregnant? Well, it depends on timing.
