5 Things You Didn’t Know About Your Fertility

Fertility is a topic that often gets overlooked—until it becomes deeply personal. Many people are surprised to learn how much their health, habits, and age can affect their ability to conceive. In this blog, we share 5 important facts about fertility that you may not know, but that can help you make more informed decisions.

1. Fertility starts to decline before age 35… but it doesn’t disappear!

We often hear that “everything gets harder after 35,” and while it’s true that ovarian reserve begins to decline in the early 30s, that doesn’t mean pregnancy is impossible. What really matters is understanding your unique situation through hormone testing, ultrasounds, and personalized medical guidance. Age is just one factor—not the only one.

2. You don’t need a perfect cycle to be fertile

It’s a common myth that only women with 28-day cycles can get pregnant. In reality, many women with irregular periods still ovulate—they just may not ovulate on the same day each cycle.

That’s why it’s important to track ovulation and not assume that irregularity equals infertility. Every body is different and deserves a personalized evaluation.

3. Body weight impacts ovulation (and fertility treatments)

Both underweight and overweight conditions can affect ovulation, hormone production, and even embryo implantation.

Maintaining a healthy weight not only boosts your chances of conceiving but also contributes to a safer pregnancy. Small changes in nutrition and exercise can make a big difference.

4. Chronic stress can disrupt your menstrual cycle

While stress isn’t the only factor, long-term stress can affect your hormonal balance and disrupt ovulation. It’s not as simple as saying “you’re too nervous to get pregnant,” but chronic stress can make the process more difficult. That’s why emotional support is also essential in fertility care.

5. You can learn about your fertility before trying to conceive

You don’t have to wait until you’re ready for pregnancy to understand your fertility.

Today, tests like Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) levels, antral follicle counts, and hormonal panels can give you insight into your ovarian reserve and overall reproductive health. This allows you to plan ahead—whether you want to try soon or preserve your fertility for later.
