Getting Pregnant Naturally with PCOS: A Holistic Approach

Getting Pregnant Naturally with PCOS

The fertility journey can be a daunting experience, especially when dealing with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). The good news is, getting pregnant naturally with PCOS is absolutely possible. Yes, you heard it right—it’s possible, and I’m here to help you navigate this journey.

Having PCOS doesn’t mean you’re automatically bound for IVF. In fact, there are many natural ways to take control of your PCOS and enhance your fertility.

The Spectrum of PCOS: One Size Doesn’t Fit All

Let’s start by understanding that PCOS varies from one individual to another. The severity of symptoms can differ, which means that what works for one person might not work for another. But regardless of where you fall on the PCOS spectrum, there are steps you can take to improve your fertility.

Regulate Your Menstrual Cycle: The Foundation of Natural Fertility

If you’re trying to get pregnant naturally, one of the first steps is to regulate your menstrual cycle. Standard ovulation predictor kits are often ineffective for women with PCOS. Instead, consider using basal body temperature charts to identify ovulation patterns. Click here to get my free guide to using a BBT chart! 

Natural Ways to Regulate Your Menstrual Cycle and Increase Fertility

  • Diet: The foods you eat can be the game-changers in managing PCOS symptoms. Eliminating inflammatory foods like dairy and gluten can be especially beneficial.
  • Exercise: Regular physical activity can be a major help for your menstrual health. Even losing just 5 to 10 pounds can bring about significant improvements in your cycle.
  • Supplements: Myo-inositol and d-chiro-inositol, in a 40:1 ratio, can help balance insulin levels, a significant concern for many women with PCOS. For more info about supplements for PCOS, click here to download my free guide. 

Be Patient, But Proactive

Aim for at least three months of these healthy lifestyle changes before trying to conceive naturally. This timeframe is particularly crucial for women who have elevated blood sugar levels; it takes time to regulate these markers.

So there it is: getting pregnant naturally with PCOS is not just a dream; it can be your reality. I’ve supported many women on their PCOS journey, and here’s the truth: Getting pregnant naturally is absolutely possible once your body is in balance and thriving.

The journey might take time and require some lifestyle changes, but remember, it’s absolutely doable. Stay committed, and be patient with yourself.  With the right strategies in place, natural pregnancy is an achievable goal.
