Being infertile means that you have been unable to conceive after trying to get pregnant for a year. Although this is a very expansive definition, there is no need to panic yet, there are plenty of things that you can do to control and improve all of the factors that contribute to infertility. Here are some cures for infertility that you can easily incorporate into your lives, all of these tips can improve your chances of conception and pregnancy.
If you are having fertility problems, its vitally important that you seek medical advice from your doctor or medical practitioner. If you have already secured medical fertility advice, or treatment, trying these infertility cure suggestions will improve your health and chances of getting pregnant.
Cure For Infertility - Sex Tips
Here are some sex tips that are designed to help with fertility. Every time that you have sex is an opportunity for you to conceive, there for it is important that you take full advantage of your sex life to assist you in your quest for pregnancy.
* Learn to identify and know your fertile period - having sex during the time of the month when your body is actually able to get pregnant is a vital part of successfully conceiving. Most women, who are experiencing infertility problems, are already familiar with their ovulation cycle, but there are occasional stories about women who are unable to get pregnant until they are able to zero-in on their fertile period.
* Don't use lubrication jelly before or during intercourse - lubrication jelly can impede the progress of the sperm, so using lube can slow down or even stop sperm from reaching the ovum. If you wish to use a harmless form of lubrication, some doctors recommend using egg whites (warmed up to room temperature), which have a consistency similar to the fertile mucus that women naturally produce during ovulation.
* Make love in the missionary position - when you have sex with the man on top, you ensure that ejaculation occurs deep inside the vagina, and the sperm is released close to the cervix. When the sperm has shorter distances to travel to meet the egg, your chances of conceiving increase.
Cure For Infertility - Emotional Tips
The interplay between health and emotional wellbeing is being more and more redily recognised and understood by science and medicine. It has been scientifically proven that your emotions have significant effect on your physical health, emotions affects hormone production and output, and because hormones regulate the way that your body functions and ultimately your health, the way you are thinking and feeling can have more affect on you than you might think.
* Anxiety and Fertility - I have spoken to many couples experiencing fertility problems and fertility experts who believe that the anxiety that men and women experience (especially surrounding infertility problems) can interfere with your ability to conceive. Some research shows that stress can result in the production of cervical secretions that will interfere with the ability of the sperm to successfully travel to the egg. Further research has found that a man's sperm count can be radically reduced if he is stressed or anxious. If you live a high-stress lifestyle, and/or you experience anxiety, you could try counseling (either individually or as a couple) to help resolve emotional conflict and other stressful situations.
* Take a break and relax -Another great infertility cure for stress is taking a holiday, and relaxing out of the pressure and fear that infertility can create. Most people tend to get into very panicky about their lack of success so far in getting pregnant. There are plenty of stories from couples who have tried unsuccessfully to conceive for months or years, as well as from couples that have failed to get pregnant from expensive and stressful IVF treatment, who, have gone on holiday, and stopped 'trying' so hard to conceive - and have fallen almost immediately pregnant.
* Is Laughter The Best Medicine? - When you are stressed out and emotional, your body produces lots of stress hormones. One of the best ways to counter the detrimental effects of stress hormones on your health is to counter the stress with lots of laughter. Laughter activates the release of lots of endorphins, which besides making you feel good, also boosts your health and immune system. Fill your life with things that make you feel good - funny movies, good books, go on adventures and fun outings; light exercise can also boost your endorphin levels.
* Extra tips for dealing with stress and negative emotion:
- Keep a journal
- Make a list of all of the things that are troubling you, make a symbolic gesture (like burning the paper) that will help you feel as though you are ridding yourself of what is burdening you.
- Do something for someone else - volunteer for a good cause or donate to charity, your positive action will give you a sense of fulfillment and help your emotional shift.
