Anyone have any tips on improving diet for fertility?

Question

I’ve recently read that things like a high sugar diet can impact fertility. Does anyone have any tips on how to improve diet for fertility? Such as things that can help or to avoid or anything that may have worked for you?

Answer

I tried for years to get pregnant with PCOS, I then started following a low GI diet and cut out things like dairy, caffeine etc and I was pregnant within a couple of months!

Answer

Join an IF group on Facebook. Many women got pregnant after starting this lifestyle. 
I had fertility issues and had to do Ivf. But my blood work for my thyroid was the best it’s ever been when doing IF. I almost didn’t need my medicine anymore

Answer

Reducing sugar and processed wheat/gluten/pasta is a good place to start, also cut artificial sweeteners like aspertame.

Answer

Alkaline diet

Answer

Lily Nichols and Dr. Jolene Brighten have great info on their blogs and Instagram accounts about foods that improve hormone health and fertility

Answer

I would definitely listen to Dr. Mark Hyman and his Doctors Farmacy podcast. He has several podcast talking about diet and fertility/hormones. It’s very interested! Some things I picked up were similar to what you mentioned. He states how sugar/carbs increase our insulin which actually has a large impact on our hormones. In fact, we are now noticing that most PCOS cases are insulin driven! He wrote a book called the “Pegan Diet”. It a high vegetable, healthy carb, good quality protein diet. I started this and was pregnant shortly after!
