If you’re looking to improve your fertility, this is the perfect time to adopt new habits that can positively impact your reproductive health. In this article, we share tips, backed by our gynecologists at Fertility Madrid, to help you care for your overall well-being and optimize your fertility.
1. Eat a Balanced Diet
A nutrient-rich diet is essential for supporting your reproductive health. Focus on fresh, natural foods such as:
- Fruits and vegetables: High in antioxidants, which protect cells.
- Healthy fats: Found in avocados, nuts, and olive oil.
- Lean proteins: Such as chicken, fish, and legumes.
- Complex carbohydrates: Whole grains to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Avoid ultra-processed foods, refined sugars, and excessive caffeine, as they can negatively affect your reproductive well-being.
2. Maintain a Healthy Weight
Being overweight or underweight can disrupt hormonal balance and ovulation. Combine a balanced diet with moderate exercise to maintain a healthy weight and support your reproductive goals.
3. Reduce Stress
Chronic stress can interfere with reproductive hormones and affect fertility. Incorporate relaxation activities such as:
- Alternative therapies like acupuncture, which some find helpful in balancing hormones.
- Yoga or meditation.
- Regular exercise, such as walking or swimming.

4. Get Enough Sleep
Sleep deprivation can disrupt hormones and overall well-being. Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night and establish a regular sleep routine.
5. Stop Smoking and Reduce Alcohol Consumption
Smoking damages reproductive health, and excessive alcohol can disrupt hormones. Quitting these habits can enhance your reproductive well-being and improve your chances of conception.
6. Consult a Fertility Specialist
If you’ve been trying to conceive without success, it’s important to consult a specialist. At Fertility Madrid, we can help identify potential issues and offer personalized solutions.
7. Consider a Preconception Checkup
Understanding your health is key to planning a healthy pregnancy. A preconception checkup can identify factors affecting your fertility and allow for early intervention.
8. Stay Hydrated
Proper hydration is vital for cellular function and hormone balance. Aim to drink at least 2 liters of water daily.
