I am a broken record here but optimizing your health well before you begin to try to conceive dramatically improves your chances of conception, a healthy pregnancy, and a healthy baby.

I have so many posts on fertility so if you need resources, check them out here.

Infertility is on the rise which is a really scary and sad thing, and one in five couples will face infertility. We are also seeing a growing number of pregnancy loss (miscarriage), chances of both of these can be lowered with the correct diet, supplementation, and lifestyle preparation like lab work and functional testing.

An important part of fertility and pregnancy prep is lab work, it gives you insight into where you’re at currently in regards to your hormones which are obviously the important players in conceiving, but also things like your iron levels, nutrient stores, etc.
