Common deficiencies
  • Iron  iron deficiency can inhibit women from
    ovulating. Good food sources are red meat, eggs
    and leafy green vegetables. A supplement should
    only be taken if a blood test shows a deficiency.
  • Iodine  iodine deficiency can impair the health
    of the thyroid gland, a major cause of
    infertility. About 50 per cent of my patients
    are deficient in iodine

Common deficiencies
  • Omega-3  This is essential fatty acid inspires
    the production of the hormone progesterone for
    ovulation to take place.
  • Vitamin d  vitamin D deficiency can inhibit
    ovulation, and women with polycystic syndrome are
    particularly likely to be deficient

What to avoid?
  • Bad fats  like Trans fats found in processed,
    packaged and fried foods, biscuits and cakes can
    keep a woman from ovulating. Consume the good
    fats found in extra virgin olive oil, avocados
    and nuts and seeds instead.
  • Cigarettes  it will stringently reduce sperm
    count and sperm motility.

    progesterone, can stop ovulation in women and
    lessens sperm count motility.
