How to Increase the Chance of Getting Pregnant
Healthy pre-conception lifestyle boosts fertility: Avoid alcohol (disrupts hormones, delays conception), smoking (doubles time to pregnancy, harms eggs/sperm), and excess coffee; smokers face low sperm counts and gene damage. Eat nutrient-rich diet with iron+vitamin C, folic acid, zinc, selenium to support ovulation and sperm quality/mobility. Maintain BMI 18–25—underweight halts ovulation via low leptin, overweight risks anovulation, complications like hypertension/preterm birth. Consult doctors on medications (e.g., antidepressants, BP drugs) for safer alternatives to avoid teratogenicity. Men equally matter: Quit nicotine/alcohol/drugs, lose weight to preserve testosterone/sperm health for successful fertilization.
