How to Increase Your
Chances of Getting Pregnant

2. Having trouble conceiving? It can be quite
frustrating having to wait for months or years
for some good news, while it seems too easy for
other couples to get pregnant. It’s still hard
for experts to determine what could be the reason
behind this.
However, there are some tips that may increase your
chances of finally having a baby, including the
following:

3.  Get over your soda addiction. Two or more servings
of soda reduce women’s ability to conceive by 16%.
 Take better care of your teeth. Women with gum
disease may delay your conception by two more
months. Dental health should be maintained if you
want to get pregnant fast.

4.  Reduce TV time for him. Spending over 20 hours
watching TV can reduce your man’s sperm count as
much as 44%.
 Sleep better. IVF treatments are best supported with
seven to eight hours of sleep every day.
 Control chronic anxiety. High stress levels prevent
women from ovulating.

5.  Lose weight. Overweight or obese men usually have
lower sperm counts and concentration.
 Relax your exercise regimen a bit. Slim women who
exercise at least five hours a week cut 42% off their odds
of getting pregnant. Lay off your strenuous exercise
routine a bit to give your baby a chance.
 Ask him to stop smoking. In a study by the American
Society for Reproductive Medicine’s researchers
discovered that smoking can significantly lower the
quality of mens sperm.

6.  Try a zero gluten diet. According to a Columbia
University research, their women subjects with
mysterious cases of infertility are suffering from
celiac disease. These women have antibodies that
prevent the placenta from developing. But when they
started on a gluten-free diet, they got pregnant
within a year.

7.  Tell him to change the way he carries his phone. It
could be due to the mobile phone’s electromagnetic
emission, but men who keep their phones on their
pants or belts have reduced sperm counts. This is
according to a published Environmental Working
Group review.

8.  Although there’s no guarantee that you will
immediately get pregnant after following these tips,
you may certainly increase your chances. Being
healthy makes a difference!
