Fertility Foods So You Get Pregnant Fast

There are women who get pregnant quickly even though they have only been married a few months. However, there are also women who have been married for years and are planning a pregnancy but have never had two bodies. If you are a woman who has difficulty conceiving, try changing your intake by consuming fertilizing foods.

Actually, experts are still debating the relationship between food and pregnancy, because in fact there are women who can get pregnant even though they don't regularly consume fertilizing foods. But, some experts think, in some women who have difficulty conceiving, there is a possibility that better nutritional intake can help fertilize the womb. They say what you eat also affects your body.

Suggested Types of Food

The following types of foods may be able to help nourish your womb:

• Meat

  You can eat lean beef and chicken. In addition to containing a lot of protein, the meat is rich in nutrients that are good for the content, namely iron. You are advised not to consume more than three servings per day. According to research, excessive consumption of animal protein can actually reduce fertility.

• Protein plants

  If you are a vegetarian or want to find alternative protein foods, you can eat soybeans (tempe or tofu), peas, or peanuts. Besides being cheaper, this type of fertilizing food is also lower in fat and calories than meat so that body weight can be maintained. According to experts, consuming animal and plant protein can increase your fertility.

• Fish

  Substances that are good for optimizing your reproductive performance are omega-3 fatty acids. These substances can be found in fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines, and catfish. However, there are concerns that fish could be contaminated with mercury, a substance that can be harmful to the womb. As a safe measure, you are advised not to consume more than 340 grams a week. If you're still worried or don't like fish, you can get omega-3 benefits from almonds, walnuts, and eggs fortified with omega-3 or DHA.

• Dairy products

  In addition to being good for bone health, dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt, are also likely to be good as content-fertilizing foods. Choose products that are low in fat or fat free. 

• Complex carbohydrates

  Maybe all this time the carbohydrates you have consumed are only refined grains or refined carbohydrates such as white rice and white bread. Try replacing it with products made from whole grains or complex carbohydrates such as brown rice or whole-grain bread or whole-grain cereals. Foods made from whole grains have important nutrients for fertility such as B vitamins, antioxidants and iron. These nutrients have been lost in refined carbohydrates. Moreover, there are studies that say, consuming refined carbohydrates can increase blood sugar and insulin levels. This increase can interfere with reproductive hormones and disrupt the menstrual cycle. In fact, both things should work normally if you want to get pregnant. But the opposite if you eat complex carbohydrates.

• Foods containing zinc

  This substance is very important if you want to get pregnant. Zinc can facilitate the menstrual cycle and increase the production of quality eggs. The best source of zinc can be found in oysters. However, if you have a hard time finding it or don't like it, you can take the benefits of zinc, although in lesser levels, in eggs, dairy products, whole grains, dates, beef, and chicken.

• Zuriat yam and fruit

  Likewise with zuriat fruit. Although it has not been scientifically proven, this fruit, which is widely found in the Middle East, is believed to increase female fertility due to its high antioxidant content.

As an additional intake, you can take special vitamins or multivitamins to cover nutritional deficiencies that you may not be able to get entirely from nutritional foods alone. Consult this with your obstetrician so that you get the right vitamins.

It is hoped that by consuming fertilizing foods for 3-2 months, it is possible to help fertilize your womb. During this process, you should avoid foods that lower your chances of getting pregnant, such as those containing saturated fat, caffeine, raw foods, and unpasteurized cow's milk products.

Although it has not been proven that there are fertility foods that can significantly increase fertility, this diet can certainly make you healthier and better prepared to welcome your pregnancy. Apart from fertilizing the womb, you can also try some sex positions to get pregnant quickly.
