Thinking about starting a family? Here are three tips that can help support your journey:
- Track your cycle and ovulation: Understanding your most fertile days can increase your chances. Apps, kits, or guidance from your provider can be helpful.
- Prioritize your health: A balanced diet, daily prenatal vitamin, and healthy habits like managing stress and avoiding tobacco or excess alcohol all support fertility.
- Reach out when it’s time: If you’ve been trying without success, you’re not alone — and support is available. Lexington Medical Center offers resources and care for couples experiencing infertility. If it’s been a year (or six months if you’re 35+), consider scheduling a visit with your doctor.
Lexington Medical Center is recognized as the Best Hospital for Maternity Care in the Midlands, with nearly 40 OB/GYNs available to support you when you’re ready.
