Fertility issues affect up to 15% of couples.There are natural ways to increase your fertility and become pregnant faster,diet and lifestyle changes can help boost fertility by up to 69%.

There are some  natural ways to boost fertility and get pregnant faster, they include;

1. Eat a bigger Breakfast:

   Consuming a bigger breakfst may help women with fertility problems.One study found that eating a larger breakfast may improve the hormonal effects of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a major cause of infertility

   For normal weight women with PCOS, eating most of their calories at breakfast reduced insulin levels by 8% and testosterone levels by 50%. High levels of either can contribute to infertility.

   Also, these women ovulated 30% more than women who ate a smaller breakfast and larger dinner, suggesting improved fertility.

   However, it’s important to note that increasing the size of your breakfast without reducing the size of your evening meal is likely to lead to weight gain.

2. Eat foods rich in antioxidant:

   Antioxidants like folate and zinc may improve fertility for both men and women.

   Antioxidants deactivate the free radicals in your body, which can damage both sperm and egg cells .One study of young, adult men found that eating 75 grams of antioxidant-rich walnuts per day improved sperm quality.

3. Another study that followed 60 couples undergoing in-vitro fertilization found that taking an antioxidant supplement resulted in a 23% greater chance of conception.

   Foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains are packed full of beneficial antioxidants like vitamins C and E, folate, beta-carotene and lutein.

4. Increase Iron Intake:

   Consuming iron supplements and non-heme iron, which comes from plant-based food may reduce  the risk of ovulatory infertility.

   Non-heme iron was also associated with a decreased risk of infertility. Heme iron, which comes from animal sources, did not appear to affect fertility levels.

   Nonetheless, more evidence is needed to confirm whether iron supplements should be recommended to all women, especially if iron levels are healthy to begin with.

   However, boosting your intake of iron-rich foods may help.

   Yet non-heme iron sources are more difficult for your body to absorb, so try taking them with foods or drinks high in vitamin C to increase absorption.

5. Reduce the intake of caffeine:Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant of the methylxanthine class,Caffeine occurs naturally in beverages and foods such as coffee, tea and chocolate. Dark chocolate and green tea.A May 2017 study published in Frontiers in Psychiatry stated that caffeine consumption could be harmful for some populations potentially vulnerable to the negative effects of caffeine consumption, including women that are pregnant and lactating, children, adolescents, young adults and those with underlying heart or other health conditions, such as mental illness.

   Caffeine can negatively affect female fertility.

   One study suggests that women who consume over 500 mg of caffeine daily take up to 9.5 months longer to get pregnant.

   A high intake of caffeine before pregnancy is also linked to an increased risk of miscarriage .

6. Good Relaxation: As your stress levels increase, your chances of getting pregnant decrease. This is likely due to the hormonal changes that occur when you feel stressed.

   Having a stressful job and working long hours can also increase the time it takes you to become pregnant.studies show that stress, anxiety and depression affect around 30% of women who attend fertility clinics.

   Receiving support and counseling may reduce anxiety and depression levels, therefore increasing your chances of becoming pregnant

7.  Consumption of Multivitamin:Women who take multivitamins may be less experience ovulatory infertility.

   studies show that an estimated 20% of ovulatory infertility may be avoided if women consume 3 or more multivitamins per week

   What’s more, one study found that women who took multivitamins had up to a 41% lower risk of infertility. For women trying to get pregnant, a multivitamin containing folate may be especially beneficial.

   After three months on the supplement, 26% of the women became pregnant compared to just 10% of those who did not take the supplement.

8.  Swap your Protein :Replacing some animal proteins (such as meat, fish and eggs) with vegetable protein sources (such as beans, nuts and seeds) is linked to a reduced risk of infertility 

   One study found that a higher protein intake from meat was linked to a 32% higher chance of developing ovulatory infertility.A study showed that when 5% of total calories came from vegetable protein instead of animal protein, the risk of ovulatory infertility decreased by more than 50%.Therefore, consider replacing some of the meat protein in your diet with protein from vegetables, beans, lentils and nuts.

 In conclusion,consume more of natural foods and reduce intake of carbs: Natural foods like vegetables, fruits are better consumed for fertility. Also reduce your intake of carbohydrate but rather consume more of proteins.
