If attempts to get pregnant the natural way are unsuccessful, a natural fertility specialist can guide the couple through various treatments that combine natural and standard treatments to ensure the best possible outcomes.

What are the Benefits of Natural Fertility Management?

Using natural conception methods not only increases a couple's chances of conceiving, but it also guarantees the healthy development and delivery of their baby. On the other hand, practising natural contraception prevents them from getting pregnant until they're ready and risking their overall health and wellbeing. A natural health practitioner trained in natural fertility management can address all kinds of issues affecting reproductive health, including: 

  • Fertility issues
  • Irregular menstrual cycles
  • Painful periods
  • PMS
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
  • Endometriosis
  • Menopause
  • In vitro fertilisation (IVF)
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Exposure to environmental toxins
  • A history of miscarriage or abortion

What Can You Expect From Natural Fertility Management?

During a consultation with a health practitioner specialising in natural fertility management, clients will be educated on how to plan or avoid pregnancy. The woman and her partner's eating and lifestyle habits will be investigated to find signs of fertility or the root of infertility. The practitioner may ask a series of questions to understand the couple's ultimate goal and what's hindering them from achieving it.

After the initial consultation, which could last about 60 minutes, the health practitioner may or may not schedule a follow-up session, depending on the assessment results. The couple will be provided with a treatment plan to reach their goal faster, whether it's to conceive or avoid getting pregnant anytime soon. Depending on the client's preference, a consultation for natural fertility management can be carried out in a face-to-face clinical setting or through an online platform.

Is Natural Fertility Management Safe?

Natural fertility management is safe and effective, especially if the couple follows the health practitioner's advice and treatment plan religiously. Because it doesn't involve conventional drugs or any invasive procedures, the process doesn't pose any health risks or side effects.
