HEALTH CONDITIONS WE SUPPORT
Female Preconception Support
Your health before conception plays an important role in supporting fertility, pregnancy and your baby’s early development. Whether you’re planning to conceive naturally, preparing for IVF, or simply thinking ahead, taking time to prepare your body for pregnancy can help give you the best possible foundation.
The months leading up to conception are an opportunity to nourish your body, support hormone health, support egg quality and address any underlying health concerns before pregnancy.
At Pure Health Nutrition, our Clinical Nutritionists and Naturopaths work alongside your GP, fertility specialist and obstetric team to help you prepare for pregnancy through personalised nutrition, targeted testing and evidence-based lifestyle strategies.
What We Support
Whether you’re just starting to think about having a baby or have been trying to conceive for some time, we commonly support women experiencing:
What We Look Into
Preparing for pregnancy is about much more than taking a prenatal vitamin.
Depending on your health history, we may investigate factors including:
- Ovulation and menstrual cycle health
- Hormonal balance
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Thyroid health
- Blood sugar regulation
- Vaginal microbiome health
- Gut health and nutrient absorption
- Chronic inflammation
- Stress and nervous system health
- Lifestyle and environmental factors
- Previous fertility investigations
Depending on your health history, your practitioner may recommend:
To assess nutrient deficiencies, thyroid function, iron status, vitamin D, blood sugar regulation, inflammation and other markers that may influence fertility and pregnancy outcomes.
To gain a deeper understanding of hormone patterns, including progesterone, oestrogen metabolism, cortisol and ovulation, helping guide a tailored treatment plan where appropriate.
The vaginal microbiome plays an important role in reproductive health. This advanced test assesses the balance of beneficial bacteria, identifies vaginal dysbiosis and helps determine whether microbial imbalances may be influencing fertility, implantation or recurrent infections.
Where appropriate, we can develop personalised treatment strategies, including targeted probiotics and practitioner-formulated vaginal pessaries, to help restore a healthy vaginal microbiome before conception.
Comprehensive Vaginal Microbiome Testing
The vaginal microbiome plays an important role in reproductive health. This advanced test assesses the balance of beneficial bacteria, identifies vaginal dysbiosis and helps determine whether microbial imbalances may be influencing fertility, implantation or recurrent infections.
Where appropriate, we can develop personalised treatment strategies, including targeted probiotics and practitioner-formulated vaginal pessaries, to help restore a healthy vaginal microbiome before conception.
To evaluate digestive function, gut microbiome health and inflammation. Supporting gut health can help improve nutrient absorption, immune function and hormone metabolism before pregnancy.
To assess nutrient status, energy production, oxidative stress and metabolic function, helping us identify areas that may influence overall health before conception.
Including your menstrual cycle, nutrition, lifestyle, sleep, medical history, medications, previous fertility investigations and overall health to create a personalised preconception plan.
Testing recommendations are made where clinically indicated and are used to guide your nutrition and lifestyle plan. Our recommendations are always considered alongside your GP or fertility specialist’s care.
Our Approach
Every treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs and fertility journey and may include:
- Personalising nutrition to support fertility and egg quality
- Supporting healthy ovulation and hormone balance
- Addressing nutrient deficiencies before pregnancy
- Vaginal microbiome restoration where appropriate
- Gut health support
- Tailoring supplementation and herbal medicine where appropriate
- Lifestyle strategies to optimise fertility
- Preparing your body for natural conception or assisted reproductive treatment
- Ongoing monitoring and support throughout your preconception journey
Our goal is to support your health before pregnancy by supporting the factors that influence fertility, pregnancy and the long-term health of both mother and baby.
