THE JOURNEY BEHIND MY METHOD

Here’s how I became a natural fertility specialist and mother

I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) right after I came off the pill and my period failed to return.

This is when my dreams of becoming a mum shattered: they told me I couldn’t conceive naturally, and I found no help from my doctor. He failed to address my needs, my diet, my lifestyle and the potential benefits they offered to my fertility.

Conventional medical practice isn't holistic, it reduces the body to the mere sum of its parts, and doesn't see the whole picture. Its approach to fertility is short-sighted and doesn’t even consider nutritional status or the emotional impact it has on every aspect of our lives. This is the reason why I took the matter in my own hands. I felt like I could do so much more, not only for myself, but also for every woman out there suffering like me.

So I began my studies in naturopathy, herbal medicine and nutrition and now I understand the complexities of a woman’s body. I know what can go wrong but, most importantly, what nature offers to enable our bodies to heal and thrive with fertility.

I studied everything I could learn about fertility; the menstrual cycle, sperm, hormones, the microbiome and genetics to ensure that no stone was left unturned when it came to getting pregnant. I studied Emotional Freedom Technique, a proven therapy to help release the emotions associated with infertility and pregnancy loss.  I studied Fertility Awareness to ensure that I could pinpoint ovulation to maximise the chances of getting pregnant naturally.

And it worked!
