Fertility & Preconception Health — Preparing the Terrain for New Life

Nutritional Therapist & Mineral Balancing Specialist | Cotswolds & Online

For those who want to understand fertility beyond hormones and hope

You eat well.
You’ve tracked, timed, maybe even tested.
But deep down you know fertility isn’t just about cycles — it’s about the state of your terrain.

Fertility isn’t a switch that turns on or off; it’s an expression of your body’s overall balance — minerals, light, metabolism, and stress all woven together.

Before conception, your body wants safety.
When the nervous system is on high alert, minerals are depleted, and energy is diverted to survival, reproduction simply pauses.

Why fertility falters

Every cell involved in conception depends on mineral communication and circadian timing.
Magnesium, zinc, and selenium stabilise hormones and egg quality.
Copper, iodine, and iron influence thyroid and oxygen delivery.
Light and melatonin synchronise ovulation and sleep.

The patterns I see most often include:

  • Low zinc and magnesium affecting ovulation and progesterone

  • Copper excess or deficiency disrupting thyroid and mood

  • Adrenal strain reducing luteal phase length and resilience

  • Blood-sugar fluctuations undermining egg quality

  • Mineral loss post-contraceptive or post-stress

The body isn’t failing — it’s protecting.
Reproduction only unfolds when there’s enough stability to sustain new life.

How I can help

I use Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) and functional nutrition to map your mineral blueprint before conception — understanding how stress, diet, and environment have shaped your fertility terrain.

Together we:

  • Rebuild key minerals that support ovulation and hormone balance

  • Restore thyroid and adrenal communication

  • Support mitochondrial energy and egg quality through mineral nutrition

  • Align light exposure and meal timing with hormonal rhythm

  • Create a plan that supports fertility without obsession or overwhelm

Your next step

Start with a HTMA Deep-Dive Consultation to understand how your minerals and metabolism are shaping your fertility story.

Or, if you’re preparing to conceive or recovering from fertility treatment:

Why this approach works

Because fertility isn’t a separate system — it’s the body’s most refined expression of balance.
When minerals, light, and safety return, fertility often follows — quietly, naturally, without force.
