Fertility Program

*We also offer a Couples Fertility Program (Book appointment individually).
Fertility support is best achieved when both partners are educated, empowered and supported. No matter what stage of fertility treatment you are looking to support, the health of both partners is essential to success. Medical tests to diagnose your current levels of fertility will be assessed, diet, supplement, and lifestyle prescriptions to boost your fertility will also be utilized.

Infertility affects nearly 1 in 5 couples, with unexplained infertility climbing to up to unprecedented in couples of reproductive age. Factors which may reduce fertility in men and women include:

• Exposure to hormonal toxins and poor ability to detoxify
• Hormonal imbalances e.g. reduced testosterone in men, low progesterone in women
• Conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, low ovarian reserve
• Previous history of abdominal surgery, miscarriage
• High stress levels and low energy
