Fertility Support
The journey to growing your family can be exciting, emotional, and at times overwhelming. Whether you are just beginning to think about conception, actively trying to conceive, preparing for fertility treatments, or experiencing challenges along the way, our team is here to support you.
At Momentum Kelowna, we take a comprehensive approach to fertility by assessing factors that may influence reproductive health, including hormone balance, menstrual cycle health, thyroid function, nutrition, lifestyle, stress, and overall wellbeing. Our goal is to help optimize your health and create the best possible foundation for conception and a healthy pregnancy.
We work with individuals and couples at all stages of their fertility journey and collaborate with family physicians, fertility clinics, and other healthcare providers when appropriate.
Our Approach
Every fertility journey is unique. We believe in providing compassionate, evidence-informed care that helps patients understand their options and feel supported throughout the process. Whether you are preparing for pregnancy, trying to conceive naturally, or working with a fertility clinic, our team is committed to helping you navigate the next steps with confidence.
Preconception Care
Preparing for pregnancy starts long before a positive pregnancy test. Preconception care focuses on optimizing health prior to conception to support fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and the health of both parents and baby.
Areas of focus may include:
- Nutritional optimization
- Prenatal supplementation
- Hormone health
- Thyroid assessment
- Lifestyle and environmental factors
- Cycle tracking and ovulation awareness
- Medication and supplement review
Female Fertility
Many factors can influence female fertility, including ovulation, hormone balance, cycle regularity, egg quality, and overall health.
Common concerns we support include:
- Irregular menstrual cycles
- Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) (Previously Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS))
- Ovulatory dysfunction
- Thyroid-related fertility concerns
- Endometriosis
- Recurrent pregnancy loss
- Unexplained infertility
- Fertility treatment support
Our naturopathic doctors help patients better understand their cycles, identify potential barriers to conception, and develop individualized treatment plans to support reproductive health.
Male Fertility
Male factors contribute to fertility challenges in a significant number of couples, yet are often overlooked. Optimizing sperm health is an important part of the fertility journey.
Areas we commonly assess include:
- Sperm count
- Motility and morphology
- Hormone health
- Lifestyle factors
- Nutrition and nutrient status
- Environmental exposures
We work with patients to support overall reproductive health and optimize factors that may influence fertility outcomes.
Fertility Treatment Support
For patients undergoing fertility treatments such as ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI), or in vitro fertilization (IVF), naturopathic care can help support overall health throughout the process.
Treatment plans are tailored to each individual and may include nutrition and lifestyle guidance, supplementation, stress management strategies, and coordination with your fertility team.
