It takes three months to produce both a batch of sperm and to mature an egg, so this is the minimum amount of time we want to prep for conception. This window allows enough time for important changes to take effect, ensuring your body has the nutrients it needs for a healthy pregnancy. By focusing on a personalised fertility nutrition plan, we can optimise your chances of conceiving during this time.

Male infertility is a common issue, affecting up to 50% of couples facing fertility challenges. The good news is that nutrition and lifestyle changes can have a significant impact.

We’ll work together to create a bespoke plan, enabling you to approach IVF with confidence and a sense of empowerment. I’ll be with you every step of the way.
Going through endless medical tests without getting answers is exhausting. Instead, using my signature method, we will explore your health from a holistic perspective, addressing areas that may have been overlooked. I work with laboratories that offer tests which go far deeper than standard GP testing, often providing the missing piece of the puzzle. Functional testing is an incredible way to get answers as to why you might be struggling with your fertility. Tests I frequently use in clinic include bloodwork, vaginal and seminal microbiome testing, thyroid testing, gut microbiome testing, epigenetic testing, semen analysis and DNA fragmentation.
Of course. When you’re using an egg donor, fertility nutrition plays a vital role in supporting your body through the process and preparing for a healthy pregnancy. We’ll focus on nourishing your body with key nutrients to support your immune system, reduce inflammation, optimise the vaginal microbiome and improve overall wellbeing, ensuring your body is an optimal state to receive an embryo.
