Natural ways to improve fertility
Emotions.
If you’re struggling with infertility, you might doubt your body, your health and your relationship. As a result, what you say to yourself may not be kind or compassionate. What’s more, negative energy, toxic relationships and stress can all prevent energy from flowing to the uterus and allowing for pregnancy, Raupp said.
Pay attention to your inner dialogue, try to have more kindness for yourself, your partner and other people in your life and make changes where possible. One of the best ways to cope with negative emotions is through meditation and journaling. sexeducationwomen
Keep your uterus warm.
In Chinese medicine, a “cold” uterus, or poor blood flow and circulation to the uterus, is a diagnosis and could be the reason you can’t get pregnant.
“We see the uterus as a palatial space to grow a baby and if it’s cold, it’s not very hospitable or comfortable,” said Aimee Raupp, a licensed acupuncturist, women's health and fertility expert in New York City and Nyack, N.Y. and author of “Yes, You Can Get Pregnant: Natural Ways to Improve Your Fertility Now and Into Your 40s.”
If you notice your menstrual blood is dark purple, or even black, you have a lot of clots and your whole body tends to be cold, you could have a cold uterus.
To warm up your uterus during your period, Raupp recommends warm baths, wearing socks or slippers, placing a hot water bottle on your abdomen and drinking ginger or cinnamon tea. Also, avoid cold, raw foods, swimming or anything that gives you a chill.
Time sex right.
If you have a 28-day cycle, you’ll probably ovulate on day 14. For the best possible chance of conceiving, have sex on days 12, 14 and 16. Since sperm lasts up to three days on average, you’ll still improve your chances even if you don’t have sex every day while you’re ovulating, said Dr. Brian Levine, a board-certified OB-GYN and fertility specialist, and the New York practicedirector for the Colorado Center for Reproductive Medicine in New York City. sexeducationwomen
Have hot, steamy sex— and lots of it.
Although when you have sex is key, how much sex you have could be equally important. In fact, women who have frequent sex even outside their fertile windows are more fertile, according to research in the journals Fertility and Sterility and Physiology and Behaviors.
Researchers believe the reason some women may have trouble conceiving is due to an autoimmune response that causes their bodies to reject sperm or the embryo because they’re not having sex enough.
Not only can more sex improve your chances of getting pregnant, but spicing up your sex life can help you intimately reconnect with your partner and help you remember you’re creating a life out of love.
