Natural Fertility

Health Foundations offers preconception health care to support couples with fertility problems and also for couples who simply want their child to have the healthiest start to life. The preconception program not only aims to achieve conception, but also to improve the chances for a natural and healthy conception, pregnancy, birth and baby. We work with the natural cycles of the body to restore health and work towards your optimal fertility. This is achieved through the use of natural medicines, dietary and lifestyle changes, cycle charting and timing techniques, and teaches couples how to understand and manage their own fertility in the least invasive, most effective and safest way possible.

• The presence of the nutritional “building blocks” which are necessary for the formation of a healthy embryo
• The absence of toxins that could be detrimental to this process
• Optimal general and reproductive health in both parents

Our PreConception Health Program

To achieve optimal health for your future children, both partners should be at their best health for at least 3 months prior to conception. The program includes an initial 1-1/2 hour visit and two subsequent 1-hour visits:

First Visit
We discuss medical history, family history, current conditions, diet, lifestyle and future goals. We also complete any routine blood work, and provide an overview on the philosophy of naturopathic medicine.  

Second Visit
We review lab work and discuss a 2-week detoxification plan tailored to your individual needs. The detox plan includes dietary and exercise recommendations as well as supportive therapies and supplements to assist your body in its natural elimination process. We also discuss hormone balancing and regulation, which is important for both males and females for optimal health and pregnancy.

Third Visit
After completion of the 2-week detox plan, we discuss how to maintain a state of optimal wellness with an individualized, comprehensive preconception plan, which addresses lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, and stress management. We will also discuss how to limit toxic exposure, nutritional, botanical, or homeopathic supplementation, and fertility awareness.
