Female Fertility

With the UrBump nutritional and lifestyle programme we will look at your nutritional requirements and provide you with advice that can help improve your fertility and chances of having a healthy baby.

From a medical perspective, the two most common identifiable problems for women are:

Problems with ovulation (such as irregular periods)
Damage to fallopian tubes (e.g. from an infection)

However, almost a third of all problems can not be identified and are therefore classified as ‘unexplained’.

Subclinical nutritional deficiencies

Problems with fertility may be down to a lack of certain vitamins, minerals and essential fats due to poor digestion or a diet that is not as good as it could be. This is because essential nutrients aid the working of the endocrine glands responsible for fertility and responsible to regulate ovulation and normalise periods. Essential nutrients can also help ensure that the fallopian tubes are in good working order.

Too much alcohol, cigarettes or drugs, working with harmful chemicals, eating too many processed foods and insufficient fruit and vegetables in your diet may lead to unexplained infertility or problems with ovulation or your fallopian tubes.
