We all have some bad habits that we need reminding every once in a while to cut out of our life. It takes 21 days to form and break habits, so encourage yourself to try something for 3 weeks before you completely disregard it. Some major bad habits we need to come clean about relating to fertility are:
- Smoking. No amount of smoking is ok when trying to conceive or have good overall menstrual health. Nicotine and the preservatives in cigarette smoke can interfere with egg quality and hormone levels.
- Caffeine. Caffeine is moderation is ok. One cup of coffee and one other source from chocolate or tea is ok, but a double extra grande with an extra shot may be pushing it. Be mindful of how much caffeine you consume.
- Sedentary lifestyle. If you have no exercise in your life, think about setting a realist goal and getting something going.
- Drink plenty of water.
