Trying to conceive? Considering fertility treatment? Join us to learn about your natural options for enhancing your fertility.

One in eight couples have trouble getting pregnant or maintaining a pregnancy. Roughly 12% of all U.S. women receive some level of infertility treatment from their healthcare providers. The options offered in a conventional setting involve medications or hormones to induce ovulation. What’s missing from those treatments is looking at the underlying health of the couple. Join us to learn about natural ways to enhance your fertility.

In this class, we discuss:

Tests to request from your health care provider, including nutritional markers, genetic markers, immune system markers and more.
What diet and nutritional changes may help your particular body type to get and stay pregnant
Top 5 vitamins for preconception
Lifestyle changes that are most important to implement during preconception
Ways to enhance your body’s ability to respond to treatment like IVF or IUI
