7 Tips to Boost Your Fertility
5. Eliminate painkillers and caffeine
Much like alcohol and tobacco, caffeine also prevents you from getting pregnant fast.
Just one cup of coffee per day could half your chances of conception as it decreases the activity of the Fallopian tube muscles which carry the eggs from the ovaries. Over the counter painkillers like ibuprofen and paracetamol, can affect conception too if taken around the time of ovulation. They suppress hormones called prostaglandins which help release eggs into the Fallopian tube.
6. Stay stress free
It is important for aspiring mothers to stay calm and stress free, especially before, during and after sex. The hormones are thrown off balance when you are stressed out and the body doesn’t react to sex like it should. Practice meditation and breathing techniques for maintaining serenity.
7. Consume lots of water
Consuming loads of water has innumerable benefits, one of which is that it helps you conceive easily. If the body doesn’t receive enough water, then the reproductive system will lose out as the body will direct the water to the more vital organs first. Water helps in creating plump egg follicles and supplies a strong blood supply to the womb lining.
