Natural Ways to Boost Your Odds of Getting Pregnant

Having a hard time conceiving? Even fertility drugs are not helping? Here are couple ways that you can change your daily routine and natural approaches that can increase your odds of getting pregnant.

Are You Overweight?

Many fertility doctors and counselors would agree that women who are overweight or underweight have more difficulty conceiving. Figure out your body mass index (BMI), which is based on your height-to-weight ratio, which give you an idea of where you stand.

Try Acupuncture

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the meridians that run through the ovaries and uterus can be stimulated with acupuncture, which can improve your chances of becoming fertile by increasing blood flow to the reproductive organs.

Acupuncture normalizes the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, the control center for hormones and improves the circulation of bioenergy (Qi), opening blocked channels and reducing stress. Many research findings indicate the stimulation of the needles sends an electrical signal that runs from the sensory nerves to the spine and back out along motor nerves, which re-direct the blood flow to the ovaries and uterus.

Avoid Coffee

Recent finding shows that the volatile oils in coffee beans agitate the adrenal glands. Even decaf coffee can affect the adrenal gland and influence tissues that interact with the reproductive hormones.

Eat Healthy

Try organic diet. Avoid non-organic foods might contaminated with pesticides used to grow them. Pesticides can be building up in your body for years and affecting reproductive hormones. Avoid drinking bottled water and microwave foods in plastic container that would release harmful chemical polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) that can destroy your endocrine system.
