Consult a Fertility Specialist
If you’re in your 40s and actively trying to conceive, it’s wise to consult a fertility specialist.
Understand Your Cycle
Charting your menstrual cycle, including tracking ovulation, can help you pinpoint the most fertile days.
A well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and a healthy body weight are crucial for optimizing fertility. Focus on nutrient-dense foods, exercise moderately, and manage stress effectively.
Consider taking prenatal vitamins and supplements that support fertility, such as folic acid, iron, and coenzyme Q10.
Supplement Wisely
Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Incorporate stress-reduction techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing into your daily routine.
Donor Eggs or Embryo Adoption
In some cases, using donor eggs or adopting embryos may be recommended by fertility specialists as options for achieving pregnancy.
