💡 Fertility Fact:

Did you know that the average healthy couple has about a 20% chance of conceiving each month? Remember, fertility is a journey influenced by various factors, including age, health, and lifestyle. 🥰

Stay positive, be patient, and embrace the steps you can take to support your fertility goals. 🌱💕

Endometriosis affects millions of women worldwide, causing pain, discomfort, and difficulties with fertility. But did you know that Acupuncture can be a safe and effective way to manage the symptoms of this condition and improve your chances of conceiving? 💆‍♀️

Endometriosis occurs when the tissue that lines the uterus grows outside of it, leading to inflammation, scarring, and other complications. Traditional Chinese Medicine views endometriosis as a condition caused by blood stagnation and Qi (energy) blockages in the pelvis. Acupuncture can help to stimulate circulation, reduce inflammation, and balance the body's energy flow, providing relief from pain and other symptoms.🤯

In addition to managing the symptoms of endometriosis, Acupuncture can also improve fertility by regulating menstrual cycles, promoting ovulation, and improving the quality of eggs and s***m. Studies have shown that Acupuncture can increase pregnancy rates in women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies, such as IVF. ❤️

If you're struggling with endometriosis or infertility, Acupuncture may be able to help. Book an appointment today and take the first step towards better reproductive health and wellbeing.🙌

Be your own inspiration 💫

When it comes to fertility, it's easy to feel discouraged and overwhelmed. But remember that you have the power to be your own biggest cheerleader.🙌

You are stronger and more resilient than you realize, and your journey is unique to you. Don't compare yourself to others or let their successes or failures dictate your own. 🌄

Instead, focus on your own path and celebrate every step forward, no matter how small. With patience, perseverance, and self-love, you can overcome any obstacle and achieve your dreams of parenthood. Believe in yourself and keep going! ❤️

Happy National No Socks Day! Today is all about giving your feet some fresh air and letting them breathe. But did you know that in Chinese Medicine, it's important to keep your feet warm and protected, especially when it comes to fertility? 👣❤️

According to Chinese Medicine, our feet play a crucial role in our reproductive health. The feet are considered to be the foundation of the body, and by keeping them warm, we can help improve blood flow and promote overall health and wellness. This is especially important when it comes to fertility, as poor circulation can lead to imbalances and blockages in the reproductive system. ❄️

Wearing warm socks or slippers can also help regulate body temperature, which is important for fertility. In Chinese Medicine, it's believed that cold temperatures can cause stagnation and blockages in the body, leading to imbalances and fertility issues. By keeping your feet warm and protected, you can help promote healthy blood flow and support your reproductive health. 🧦

As a fertility coach and practitioner of Chinese Medicine, I always recommend my clients to keep their feet warm and protected, especially during the colder months. So go ahead and celebrate National No Socks Day, but don't forget to keep your feet warm and cosy for optimal reproductive health! 💕

Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in 10 women of reproductive age and is one of the most common causes of female infertility. But the good news is, there are many steps you can take to manage your PCOS symptoms and increase your chances of falling pregnant. 🌟

As a fertility coach, I work with women who have PCOS to create a personalised treatment plan that addresses their unique needs and goals. This may include changes to your diet, exercise routine, stress management, and other lifestyle factors. 💪

Eating a balanced diet that's rich in whole foods, fiber, and healthy fats can help support your hormonal balance and reduce insulin resistance, which is a common symptom of PCOS. Regular exercise, such as strength training and cardio, can also help improve insulin sensitivity and boost fertility. 🥑🏋️

Stress can also play a role in PCOS and fertility, so it's important to prioritize self-care practices that help you relax and manage stress. This may include meditation, yoga, deep breathing, or other mindfulness techniques. 🧘

Working with a fertility coach can also provide emotional support and help you navigate the many options available for fertility treatment, including ovulation induction, IVF, and other assisted reproductive technologies. Together, we can create a plan that works for you and helps you achieve your fertility goals. ❤️

Remember, PCOS and infertility can be complex issues, but with the right guidance and support, you can take control of your health and increase your chances of falling pregnant. Let's work together to make it happen!

Did you know that your diet can have a big impact on your hormonal health? If you're struggling with low progesterone or other hormonal imbalances, incorporating certain foods into your diet can help support hormone balance naturally. 🌿

Foods that are rich in vitamin C, zinc, and magnesium can help boost progesterone levels, while soy products, flaxseed, and licorice root may lower progesterone levels. It's also important to limit your alcohol and caffeine intake, as these substances can interfere with hormone production. ☕🍸

Incorporating a variety of nutrient-dense foods into your diet, such as leafy greens, citrus fruits, nuts and seeds, and healthy fats, can help support overall hormonal health and fertility. As a fertility coach, I'm here to support you in making healthy dietary changes that can improve your overall hormonal health and fertility. 🌟

Remember, everyone's body is unique, and it's important to work with a practitioner to determine the underlying cause of your hormonal imbalances and create a personalised treatment plan. Let's work together to nourish your hormones and help you achieve your fertility goals. ❤️

Drinking warm water can benefit your health in more ways than you might think! In traditional Chinese medicine, it's believed that cold drinks can weaken digestion and slow down the body's natural processes. On the other hand, drinking warm water can help to stimulate digestion, improve blood flow, and relieve muscle tension. 🌿

So why not swap out your usual cold water for a mug of warm water or hot herbal tea? You might be surprised at how good it feels! And if you're interested in learning more about the holistic approach to health and wellness in Chinese medicine, feel free to reach out to me for a consultation. Let's work together to help you feel your best! 😌

Whether it's making healthier choices, seeking out new treatment options, or simply taking a moment to prioritize self-care, now is the time to take control of your fertility journey. 💪

As a fertility coach, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Fertility In The News 🔔

Recurrent miscarriage can be a devastating experience for couples trying to start or grow their family. But there may be hope with a new fertility treatment called PICSI (Physiological Intracytoplasmic S***m Injection). 🤰

PICSI is a variation of the common fertility treatment ICSI (Intracytoplasmic S***m Injection), but it uses a special dish coated with hyaluronan to select the most mature and healthy s***m for injection. Research has shown that this technique may improve fertilisation rates and increase the chances of a successful pregnancy, particularly for couples who have suffered from recurrent miscarriages. 💉

I think it is such a shame that we are not given all the options about contraceptive choices when growing up. We could have learnt so much about our bodies instead of being scared that we will fall pregnant so easily!

Hormonal contraception can also hide important signs and symptoms of fertility issues that are then not investigated or found until you are trying to fall pregnant and struggling to do so.

This is something I am so passionate about and would love to see a change in how young women are educated about s*x and their bodies

⭐ Luteal Phase Defect ⭐

Signs and symptoms 💗

Earlier today I did a poll on my stories about concentrating on one particular fertility issue/condition a month! ❤️ So this month I will be starting things off with

⭐ luteal phase defect ⭐

I will be posting information, tips and tricks about LPF all throughout November! So keep your eyes posted on my page and stories 😍

❤️🌷

Now, my intention here is not to scare anyone undergoing IVF, but in fact, to educate about signs and symptoms- so please keep reading!

Unfortunately this woman died due to complications of OHSS (Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome) while undergoing egg collection. It is important to note that this did not occur in the UK and should have been detected earlier by Drs.

It is also VERY important to tell you that this is EXTREMELY rare and that the Office of National Statistics only recorded 2 deaths from OHSS between the years of 2001-2016.

Around 1 in 3 women will experience OHSS when undergoing IVF, and this is caused by the medication used to stimulate your ovaries to produce eggs before egg collection. Signs and symptoms include:

- Abdominal pain
- Bloating
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Loose stools
- Tenderness in area of ovaries
- Rapid weight gain
- Decreased urination
- Shortness of breath

If you are undergoing IVF and experience symptoms of OHSS, please contact your IVF clinic or GP (or out of hours GP)

And relaaaaax 🧖💛

You are stronger than you think, never give up ❤️❤️

I, for one, definitely think more needs to be done to help those TTC! A year can be a huge amount of time to lose when you possibly have a fertility issue that needs looking at!

That is why tracking your cycle is so important as you can identify so many different fertility issues!

You can then take these charts, or debriefs from me, to your doctor's which can save you a lot of time going through tests and investigations!

Knowing important information about your cycle also gives you the chance to make positive changes in your life to help balance your body and improve your cycle and chances of naturally conceiving 💖

Start today 💕

Time for another TTC Myth 🤪

You want a baby and you want it now! I get it, I really do!

However, making sure your body is at its best when it comes to conceiving is so important!

🐣It ensures that your eggs (and your partners s***m!) are the highest quality they can be
🐣It ensures that the embryo has a healthy environment to implant and grow
🐣It ensures that your cervical fluid is healthy and abundant to help with the s***ms journey to the egg
🐣It can help with your health going through a pregnancy.

Unfortunately, making this healthy environment can take longer for some people. Things like diet, lifestyle, work and home environments play a massive part! So making small changes to each of these areas can bring you closer your goal... A successful and healthy pregnancy ❤️

Let's talk cervical fluid! Yes.. it can seem a bit gross but it is so important and imperative for you to get to know your cervical fluid if you are trying to conceive! 🤰

The different types of cervical fluid you produce through your cycle can help you understand when you are most fertile! 🐣

Don't worry too much if you don't experience all types of cervical fluid, the most important one to look out for is the one that is stretchy and resembles egg whites! This is your most fertile fluid! You can expect to have this for up to 4 days before you ovulate (so make the most of it!) 💕

Some Wednesday Wisdom ✨

Are you ready to take back control and increase your chances of conception by up to 92% for as little as £6.25 a week?!

Did you know that by tracking your cycle, and working with a fertility coach, you can increase your chances of conceiving naturally by a massive 92%!

Studies have shown that by tracking and understanding your cycle more can increase natural conception by:

❤️ 38% within one cycle
❤️ 68% within three cycles
❤️ 81% within six cycles
❤️ 92% within twelve cycles!

Why we are not taught about all of this growing up is beyond me! 🤰Women feel disappointed each month when Aunt Flo arrives, and all because we are not taught how to listen to our bodies or treat everyone as individuals (we don't all ovulate on day 14!) 💞

Please feel free to DM me any questions, or coaching plan can be purchased via my link on my bio 🥰

Hi, I'm Sammi! Founder of Natural Fertility Solutions 💞

I am a wife, a mum, a daughter and a sister, I love food and am into bodybuilding (I have competed once and plan to again in the future) 💪

I was born with multiple heart problems and have had 4 open heart surgeries ❤️ but I'm still here and living my life to the fullest!

How did I become a Fertility Coach?

Back in 2016, I completed my 4 years BSc Hons degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and set up my own practice - Samantha Gallier Acupuncture ☯️ I actually thought my special interest would be in dermatology (I have a background of beauty therapy) but I started to see couples who were struggling to conceive. I can't tell you the emotions I felt when my first client fell pregnant after years of struggling! It was magical ✨✨ and I was hooked on that feeling! Since then I have predominantly treated Fertility and IVF support in my clinic! It's not always roses and sunshine, but knowing I am helping couples (and even single women!) towards their goal of a family is such a lovely feeling! ❤️

When the pandemic hit, us Acupuncturists had to take some time off (until we were recognised as healthcare workers ❤️) I decided to put my time into becoming a Fertility Coach to help even more people start a family remotely!

The stuff I have learnt about Fertility from a western and Chinese perspective means I can help more people achieve their goals in both a medical and holistic way! ✨

Anyway, thank you for reading! I am going to start sharing a bit more personal stuff on my stories (I will keep parenting/kid bits off as I didn't want to upset anyone and know it can be triggering!) But I would love for you to get to know the real me behind the brand! ❤️

And just know my DMs are always open for a chat or for FREE advice 🙂

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate 💦💦💦

This weather has been HOT! 🌡️ So it is more important during these hot spells to stay hydrated!

Water has many important jobs in general, but did you know it is super important when it comes to fertility! Its roles include:

💧 Cushioning and lubricating all tissues and organs of the body- that includes gynea organs and tissues!
💧Facilitating the delivery of hormones throughout the body
💧Enhancing the follicles
💧Helping with the production of cervical fluid

Signs of dehydration include weakness, low blood pressure, dizziness, confusion, or urine that is dark in colour.

Also, if you prefer bottled water, try to invest in a reusable BPA free or glass bottle! Not only will you be helping the environment, but you will also be dodging some nasty chemicals that can be found in plastic bottles ⛔

It's GIVEAWAY time!! 🎉🎉

To celebrate my NEW COACHING PLANS going live (head over to my website to check them out!) I will be giving away one of my Gold Coaching Plans worth £80!! (Plan can be upgraded to Platinum with an extra cost 🥰)

Good Luck!! 💖

Let's talk about the events that happen in our bodies during our menstrual cycles- the hormones, the symptoms you may experience, and what potentially could be causing/showing fertility issues at this time 🌸

👀 What's happening - At this time, the continuing high levels of estrogen act on the pituitary gland, inducing it to produce LH (Luteinising Hormone). The surge of LH stimulates the production of lytic enzymes and prostaglandins in the dominant follicle.

🤒 Symptoms - increased energy, elevated mood, lower cravings, increased s*x drive, having a sweeter scent, decreased appetite, more confidence, mental clarity, better sleep, fertile cervical fluid- to name a few!

⚠️ Potential fertility issue signs- Short follicular phase, spotting between periods, PCOS, ovarian function issues, pituitary gland tumors, ovarian cysts, perimenopause, menopause

🔊Say it louder!

Our periods are so important and give so much vital information! Why we don't pay them more attention in Western Medicine I don't know!

I ask sooooo many in-depth questions about your periods as it gives me a huge insight on what may be causing you fertility problems (physically and energetically speaking). I don't care how graphic you are, or gross you may sound, I don't care if my clients send me pictures of their menstrual blood! The more information the better 😅 and the more I can help 💕

Happy Monday ☀️
