What is fertility bandwidth and how does it affect pregnancy?

Fertility Bandwidth was born when I had my own fertility challenges. What I discovered after years of asking why am I not getting pregnant and then deciding to do years of training and research; was that our body has a finite capacity.

Think of it like a battery, you can't have more power than was put into it before it reached the store. So then, if you drain too much energy leaving the light it's powering running when you're out of the room, that is wasting resource.

When you're wasting your body's resource, that means there is less for the extra stuff such as growing new life, cos if your body is struggling to keep you alive, it's sure as anything not going to make it a priority to grow a new one that would pull power from what it needs to keep you alive. Our most basic human instinct is to stay alive.

Factors affecting fertility

Factors affecting fertility are far and wide. We've all heard about how gut health influences fertility and pregnancy for example, or strategies to reduce stress for better fertility outcomes. But if we're truly looking for natural ways to enhance fertility and support conception, does it make sense to just look at one generic piece of the interconnected puzzle?

Or does it make more sense to look at you, establish what YOUR body needs support with. And then go ahead and change those factors with full clarity and confidence that you're actually adding support to an overwhelmed system, rather than putting more strain on by eg adding supplements that your body isn't lacking and then has to spend energy processing out again because they don't need to be used?

So, when you're wondering 'Why am I not able to get pregnant despite trying everything?' Ask yourself is it really 'everything' that your body needs support in? Or just the key elements that are unique to you?
