Zita West hosted a masterclass on Thursday 22nd September on How to Get Pregnant Faster.
This is one of the most common questions that couples and individuals ask when they first start trying to conceive. On average, it takes around 12 months to fall pregnant but as we know, age, diet, lifestyle and a whole host of other factors can increase this dependent on the individuals.
Over the course of her career, Zita has pinpointed several factors that can speed up the process of getting pregnant. The answer is not as straightforward as having more sex or simply eating more of certain foods. Making adjustments to your lifestyle can greatly improve your chances of getting pregnant faster as well as lead to a healthier pregnancy.
No, a man cannot be "too old" to conceive in the way a woman can, but age does matter. Sperm is produced fresh on a roughly 70–90 day cycle, which means quality is not fixed. Even after a disappointing semen analysis, many men in their 40s and beyond can make meaningful improvements to count, motility, morphology and DNA integrity. Age raises certain risks, but it rarely closes the door.
