My Fertility Guide: How to Get Pregnant Naturally by Dr (TCM) Attilio D’Alberto draws on over 25 years of clinical experience and the latest scientific evidence from more than 350 research studies. It blends modern, fact-based research with the time-tested theories of Chinese medicine to give a clear, powerful and concise understanding of natural conception.
The guide is packed with in-depth, practical information designed to increase your chances of conceiving. It explains the menstrual cycle, how your hormones work in the lead-up to ovulation, how to recognise the signs that you are about to ovulate, and exactly when and how to try for the best chance of success.
Optimising your environment
The book outlines the many causes of male and female infertility and how to avoid them – from chemicals in food, cosmetics and household products to pollution, plastics, heavy metals, certain medications and electromagnetic exposure.
Optimising your lifestyle
Detailed, evidence-based advice covers exercise, work, sleep, clothing, footwear and more, combined with the principles of Chinese medicine. It also helps you identify your own Chinese medicine pattern of imbalance and explains how to correct it to support your fertility.
Optimising your diet
Pre- and post-ovulation diet plans are provided to support healthy hormone levels, along with research-based supplement advice to improve egg and sperm quality in both partners.
Help with specific conditions
Drawing on the latest research, the guide also explains how to approach common fertility problems including irregular cycles, irregular FSH levels, poor egg quality (low AMH), endometriosis, PCOS, and poor sperm motility and morphology.
