5 key points to prepare your body before fertility treatment

You’ve made the most important decision: seeking professional help to have your baby. Whether you’re starting Artificial Insemination or In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) at IREGCI, it’s normal to wonder, “What can I do to help?”

The answer is: A lot.

Although technology and science do much of the work, your body is the “soil” where we plant the seed. Preparing that ground two or three months in advance can improve the quality of your eggs, the receptivity of your uterus, and ultimately, your success rates.

Nutrition: Your first medicine

It’s not about “dieting” to lose weight, but about nourishing your fertility.

Folic Acid: Don't wait for a positive test

It’s the star supplement. Ideally, you should start taking it at least 3 months before trying to conceive. It not only prevents birth defects but also helps create a healthy cellular environment for egg development.

  • Note: During your consultation at IREGCI, we will advise you on the exact dosage and whether you need any other vitamin supplements (such as Vitamin D).

"Detox" of Habits (Tobacco and Alcohol)

This is the most critical point.

Weight and Exercise: Find Balance

Neither a sedentary lifestyle nor extreme exercise are good for fertility.

Stress Management (The Forgotten Factor)

We know it’s difficult to ask you to “relax” right now, but cortisol (the stress hormone) can interfere with your reproductive hormones.

  • Dedicate 15 minutes a day to yourself: meditation, reading, or breathing exercises.
  • Getting enough sleep (7-8 hours) is essential for hormonal regeneration.

    A message for them! (50% of the equation)

    If you have a male partner, remind him that this is a team effort. Sperm take about 70 days to develop. If he improves his diet, quits smoking, and avoids excessive heat in the genital area for the three months prior, the quality of the sample will improve significantly.

    At IREGCI we do the rest

    You take care of your temple (your body), and we’ll take care of the science. By combining your healthy habits with our cutting-edge technology, we’re creating the perfect environment for the miracle of life.

    Ready to begin this journey? Don’t wait any longer to take the first step.

    Why choose IREGCI for this process?

    We know that changing habits and preparing your body requires a great deal of physical and emotional effort on your part. At IREGCI, we honor that commitment by offering you a treatment that enhances your results.

    How to get to IREGCI

    1. Personalized (Not Generic) Protocols: Not all women need the same medication dosage or supplements. At IREGCI, we evaluate your body mass index, ovarian reserve, and overall health to design a customized stimulation protocol for you. This not only improves results but also protects your health and minimizes side effects.

    2. Comprehensive Support from Day 1: You’re not alone in this preparation process. Our medical team will guide you on the specific vitamins you need (such as the exact doses of folic acid or vitamin D) and which lifestyle changes will have the greatest impact on your particular case. You won’t have to guess or rely on advice from the internet.

    3. Technology that Maximizes Your Effort: You focus on producing the best possible eggs while taking care of your health, and we take care of them in the laboratory. We have state-of-the-art incubators and sperm selection technology that ensure your physical effort translates into the highest possible success rates.

    4. A Human and Empathetic Approach We understand that fertility is a marathon, not a sprint. Our team is not only there for the technical aspects, but also to support you when stress arises. We are your partners on this journey, celebrating every small step forward with you until you reach the finish line.

    Experts in guiding you step by step: You won't walk alone.
