My free fertility guide has had a proper update đź“”

It covers cycle tracking, hormones, supplements, male factor, how acupuncture fits in.

If you’re trying to conceive and feel like you’re missing pieces of the picture, it might be exactly what you need.

The fertility conversation you’re not having, but should be.

1. “Unexplained” infertility often # means under-explored. In my clinical experience, unexplained more often means the right tests haven’t been done or the results haven’t been interpreted with enough depth.

2. Male factor is often under-investigated. Nearly half of fertility challenges involve male factor. It’s one of the simplest things to check and one of the last things people get around to. Test him. Early.

3. “Normal” blood results don’t necessarily mean optimal. There’s a difference between a result that falls within a reference range and a result that supports conception.

4. Low AMH doesn’t tell you whether you can get pregnant. It’s one marker of ovarian reserve. It’s not a verdict. Context matters far more than a single number.

5. High levels of cycle pain are common. They are not normal. Painful periods are not a rite of passage. Conditions like endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids and PID can all correlate with menstrual pain and they can have a real impact on your fertility.

If any of these resonate, save this post and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

You’re doing the appointments. The supplements. The tests.

But when did you last support your nervous system?

Your nervous system plays a bigger role in your fertility than most people realise. Chronic stress interferes with the hormonal signals that control your cycle, your ovulation and your overall reproductive health. I see it constantly in clinic.

A simple hack, bare feet on the earth.

In Chinese medicine we talk a lot about keeping the feet warm, but when the sand and soil is warm, grounding is a wonderful tool. Direct skin contact with the earth has been shown to help regulate cortisol and support nervous system regulation.

Many women experiencing recurrent miscarriage are told some version of the same thing:

“Just try again.”

And whilst that advice often comes from a place of reassurance, it can feel incredibly frustrating when you’ve already experienced multiple losses and still have no clear answers.

Recurrent miscarriage is complex. Sometimes it truly is unexplained. But in many cases there are factors worth investigating that may not always be explored straight away.

Over the years in clinic, I’ve supported many women navigating this exact situation. Often they arrive feeling confused about the NHS pathway, unsure what questions to ask, or wondering whether there is anything else they can do to support their body alongside medical care.

In my guest blog for , I talk more about this experience and some of the areas that may be worth exploring if you’ve had more than one miscarriage.

If this resonates with you and you’d like to read the full blog,

You don’t have to navigate this alone 🤍
