This guide offers a curated list of fertility tests I recommend to my clients in practice, empowering you with the knowledge to advocate for yourself with confidence.
Ideally, these recommended tests would be conducted with the guidance of a fertility nutritionist, but I understand that isn’t feasible for everyone. That’s why this guide also only highlights options for professional support with test interpretation (sometimes for an additional fee), so you’re left with clarity rather than confusion.
With this resource, my hope is that you’ll gain valuable insights into the “why” behind your current fertility journey and learn the best ways to seek support.
Remove the overwhelm
Find out which tests I use in clinic as a fertility nutritionist. These can provide information that may help to direct further fertility support needs.
Know where to go for testing
Where relevant, I have provided private options for testing companies, along with their hyperlinked website details, to make your life easy.
Cost
It's important to have an idea of potential costs involved, so that you are able to budget accordingly. I have therefore shared approximate costs of most test options where possible.
Hi there! I'm Sarah, your friendly fertility nutritionist!
Having worked both as a Nutritionist, and a Clinical Embryologist in various IVF clinics across the UK, I've witnessed firsthand the challenges and frustrations that individuals and couples face on their fertility journeys.
My mission is to provide support, guidance, and hope, to empower everyone navigating this often overwhelming and daunting path.
Appropriate fertility investigations play a pivotal role in regaining control, especially if you've been given the diagnosis of 'unexplained infertility'! This is a term that I passionately dislike, and would much rather use 'Unexplored Infertility' as it may just be that the right avenues haven't been investigated yet.
Understanding that not everyone has the means to invest in one-on-one nutritionist sessions, especially if having to consider the costs of fertility treatments, I wanted to make my support more accessible. That's why I've developed this resource to empower you with knowledge of avenues that could be investigated that you can then advocate for.
Combining my expertise in IVF with a holistic and empathetic approach to nutrition, I'm committed to providing you with the tools and guidance you need to thrive on your fertility journey.
Get back some control, and feel empowered about the avenues that could be explored.
