How we work
Our Nurturing Approach to Preconception Care
Your Preconception Story
We’ll start with a comprehensive consultation, usually lasting about 90 minutes. This is a chance to discuss:
- Your overall health history and any existing health conditions
- Your menstrual cycle patterns and any hormonal concerns
- Your partner’s health (if applicable), as male health is equally important in conception
- Your current diet, lifestyle, and any medications or supplements you’re taking
- Any concerns or questions you have about preparing for pregnancy
- Your vision for your future family and pregnancy
We’ll listen attentively and gather all the information we need to support you holistically.
Assessing Your Preconception Health
To get a clear picture of your preconception health, we might recommend some gentle testing:
- Comprehensive Nutrient Panel: To ensure you have all the vital nutrients needed for a healthy pregnancy
- Hormone Balance Check: Assessing your reproductive hormone levels
- Thyroid Function Test: As thyroid health is crucial for fertility and pregnancy
- Toxic Load Assessment: To identify and address any environmental factors that could impact fertility or pregnancy
- Genetic Screening: Offering optional genetic carrier screening for hereditary conditions
- Male Health Assessment: Evaluating sperm health and overall wellness (if applicable)
We’ll explain each test in detail, ensuring you understand how this information will help us create your personalised preconception plan.
Your Preconception Wellness Plan
Based on our in-depth consultation and any test results, we’ll craft a preconception plan tailored just for you. This might include:
Fertility-Boosting Nutrition:
