People have are for expressing inquisitiveness when it comes to barrenness. The following are some of the questions and responses according to the available facilities and medication possessed by our organization.

What is preconception health?

Preconception health is a woman’s health before she becomes pregnant.

Preconception health is critically important for a child’s developmental process because poor maternal health and diet before and in the early stages of pregnancy can lead to impaired fetal and infant growth, poor birth outcomes and long-term effects on cardiovascular and metabolic disease

Why is it important?

Preconception care looks to improve the health of a woman and her partner before trying for a baby. This can be done with a Healthcare Professional to help understand current health status and consider strategies for improving overall health, fitness and lifestyle.

Preconception care is important because being as healthy as possible in the months before trying to have a baby has been shown to help the chances of falling pregnant. Plus, being healthy before falling pregnant gives your baby a better chance of good health throughout their life.

Does alcohol affect preconception?

Currently there is no known safe level of alcohol, therefore, the safest option for women planning a pregnancy is to avoid alcohol.

This is because alcohol can affect fertility in both women and men. Heavy drinking can affect a woman’s menstrual cycle and ovulation and in men it can reduce the amount of testosterone in the blood.

Should my partner go to a preconception planning appointment?

It is a good idea for partners to attend a preconception appointment with a Healthcare Professional. This will enable them to talk through any family history of medical conditions at the appointment. Ways to support your fertility through diet and lifestyle changes (if any are needed) can also be discussed and requires the input and commitment of both parents-to-be.

Should I worry if I don’t fall pregnant after a year?

If you and your partner have been trying to conceive and feel that it is taking an unusually long time (more than a year if you’re under the age of 35 and 6 months if you’re over it), there may be a problem. See your doctor as soon as possible to determine what might be causing your inability to conceive.

Not every problem requires a fertility specialist. Your doctor will be able to advise on your sex life. He or she could possibly suggest that you have sex without using a contraception method 2-3 times a week, for at least a year before considering any specialist tests.

If there are any known medical or fertility problems, or you are over 35 and struggling, your doctor may refer you and your partner to a specialist within 6 months. If this happens, there is still hope on the horizon. Many couples can still conceive with a little help and guidance from a fertility specialist.
