Maintain a Healthy Weight

Excess weight can significantly decrease your chance of success with IVF. Maintaining a healthy weight is the easiest way to enhance fertility and improve chances for conception through an in vitro fertilization treatment.

The first step to optimizing sperm health is identifying any potential issues and correcting them as quickly as possible. Some of the most common causes for low sperm count, slow-moving or sluggish sperm are:

• Tobacco use
• Alcohol consumption
• Excessive caffeine intake (more than three cups a day)
• Marijuana usage
• Long term exposure to pesticides or other toxins

 

If you are experiencing any of these issues, it is best to get them corrected before undergoing an IVF treatment at PLODNOST Hospital.

All that is needed is a good multivitamin (aim for a higher zinc content) and some dietary changes.

Another important aspect of IVF success is reducing your stress. While this may seem like an impossible task, there are many things that you can do to combat the high levels of anxiety and depression associated with an infertility diagnosis. Some simple tips include:

• Exercise regularly (any exercise will be beneficial)

• Limit the amount of time you are spending on your laptop or phone (try to avoid large amounts of screen time)
