Pre-conception care is not just for women, your baby begins with 50% egg and 50% sperm, so sperm health is equally as important as egg health for fertilisation and development of a healthy baby. It takes three months for sperm to develop and mature before they are capable of fertilising an egg, so preparation should start at least three months before trying to conceive. This can ensure sperm is high quality and viable and gives the best chance of fertilising the egg.

 

Once pregnancy is confirmed, the hard part’s over for the man and the woman has to keep up her good habits for another 9 months. So if your man is struggling to stick to healthy habits, remind him it’s only for 3 months! But of course, if he sticks with them, there are long-term health benefits too.

 

In this episode, I’m giving you my 10 top tips for males to prepare for pregnancy. 

Here’s What We’re Talking About:

●      Why he needs at least 3 months to prepare for pre-conception

●      Key nutrients to improve sperm quality

●      Why cutting those bad habits will have an enormous impact on your future child’s long-term health

●      Medications and supplements that need checking
