Key Takeaways:
- AMH levels are not indicative of natural fertility; rather, they reflect ovarian reserve in the context of assisted reproductive technology cycles.
- Your body’s biological age, influenced by lifestyle and health, can differ significantly from chronological age, impacting reproductive wellness.
- Hormonal balance is crucial, and factors like chronic stress and sleep quality can affect reproductive hormones
- Preconception health is essential for both partners, especially during the 90 days it takes for eggs and sperm to mature.
- Adopting a fertility-friendly lifestyle by reducing exposure to endocrine disruptors and improving diet can enhance egg and sperm quality, regardless of age.
