Ovulation is the star of the show. But figuring out exactly when it is is not as simple as we’re lead to believe.

🙅🏻‍♀️ It’s not always on day 14, it’s not always the same day every month, you might not get the same physical indicators every month (hello unwanted pimples 🙄) and peeing on an ovulation stick isn’t going to give you the clear cut answer you think it is!

👉 Ovulation predictor sticks (pee sticks) sense the LH surge that happens before ovulation. BUT that doesn’t always lead to ovulation, and in some cases the body might try to ovulate (in which case the sticks will give you the thumbs up) but for one reason or another won’t ovulate, and then might try again later in the cycle.

Better ways to track ovulation are:

💕 Basal body temperature (I love @ovusense)
💕 Cervical mucus (let’s not be squeamish please)

👀 Do you think you know when you ovulate? How do you know?

🤷🏻‍♀️ We’re told its day 14. We’re also told it’s then 14 days until the start of our next cycle 🤯

🤦🏻‍♀️ It’s just NOT TRUE for soooo many women!

👉 Many women ovulate after day 14, and some can ovulate earlier.

🤷🏻‍♀️ Does it matter?

👉 Yes if you’re trying to conceive because you need to time things right!

👉 Yes even if you’re not trying to conceive because it can be a really useful indication of what’s going on with your hormones.

💕 P.S. ... relying on ovulation sticks might not always be the best way to tell. More on this later in the week!

😬 Ok, yes, I used balls to grab your attention. Now keep reading...

🏀 There’s a link between young adult males with smaller testicles and phthalates found in plastics (and in everything from cosmetics to household cleaning products) which the mother was exposed to during pregnancy.

🏊‍♂️ Young men with high exposure to phthalates have also been shown to have poorer sperm motility and morphology - the speed and shape that matter when trying to conceive.

🙋🏻‍♀️ Women aren’t off the hook either - high levels of phthalates are linked to PCOS, anovulation and even premature ovarian failure.

👉 Scary stuff huh? Luckily, we can all make steps to try and reduce our exposure.

🙋🏻‍♀️ The above info is from Shanna Swan’s book, ‘Countdown’. @drshannaswan is a leading reproductive epidemiologist and her work makes eye-opening reading - I highly recommend looking her up.

🧴 Swipe for some ideas on how to reduce your use of plastics.

👉 Even if you just pick a few, you’re making steps in the right direction.

👉 There are so many more ways to reduce exposure to plastics but it’s about making the choices you can and doing more over time.

🙋🏻‍♀️ What are your top tips to reduce plastic exposure? I’d love to know!

🧴Plastics are a part of our lives. And it terrifies me.

🙋🏻‍♀️ I use plastic at home, it’s pretty impossible not to, I get it.

🙅🏻‍♀️ But you know all those people clamouring about how plastics are disrupting our health, ruining our hormonal balance and jeopardising the future of the human race? THEY’RE RIGHT. And it’s REALLY frightening.

🤰 So one huge tip I can offer you if you’re thinking about your fertility (or, to be honest just your health in general) is to take it seriously. And FYI...

🚫 BPA-FREE plastic isn’t any better - it just contains other chemicals like BPA-S which is equally as harmful.

👉 I totally appreciate that overhauling your entire life in one go to remove all traces of plastic is unrealistic but tomorrow I’m going to post some ideas as to how you can cut down your exposure.

🤷🏻‍♀️ How do you feel about all of this?

☀️ Do you get enough vitamin D?

🤷🏻‍♀️ It’s a tricky one in the summer because we are all told to cover up or wear plenty of sunscreen (and I totally agree!) but that can stop us from getting enough vitamin D.

🙋🏻‍♀️ We are also all unique! Which means we have different optimal levels and different requirements.

🩸 I like to get many of my clients to do a simple finger-prick blood test to check their vitamin D status so that I can be certain they’re getting enough.

💊 I can then work out whether my client needs to supplement, the correct type of supplement and the correct dosage.

👉 Remember, vitamin D is essential for health hormone function, preconception planning and a healthy pregnancy.
