Fertility and Conception Support

At Metabolics, we offer a carefully selected range of fertility supplements designed to support both men and women in preparing for conception. Whether you are just starting to try for a baby or planning ahead, ensuring optimal nutrient levels can help support reproductive health and improve your chances of a healthy pregnancy.

Why Fertility Nutrition Matters

Nutrition plays a vital role in reproductive function. A well-balanced diet, combined with the right conception vitamins, supports hormone regulation, egg and sperm health, and the conditions needed for successful fertilisation and implantation.

Modern lifestyles, stress, and environmental factors can all impact fertility. That’s why supporting your body with the right nutrients—ideally from three months before conception—can be a game-changer for both partners. This early preparation allows time to build sufficient nutrient stores and promote a healthy internal environment for conception and pregnancy.

Fertility Supplements for Women

For women, essential nutrients such as folate, vitamin D, iron, and calcium support healthy ovulation, hormone balance, and the early stages of foetal development.

Folate (vitamin B9), particularly in its bioavailable form as methylfolate, is widely recommended before and during early pregnancy. It contributes to maternal tissue growth and helps reduce the risk of neural tube defects. UK guidelines recommend women take 400 micrograms daily, beginning at least 12 weeks before conception.

Vitamin D is also crucial for women trying to conceive. It contributes to normal immune function and supports healthy bones, teeth, and muscles—key during early pregnancy when the body’s demands increase.

Our Preconception Formula is free from unnecessary additives and uses bioavailable nutrient forms to ensure your body gets what it needs efficiently.

Fertility Supplements for Men

Fertility is not solely a female concern—male reproductive health is equally important. Key nutrients such as zinc and selenium contribute to normal fertility and reproduction in men.

Zinc supports testosterone levels in the blood and helps maintain normal sperm function. Selenium plays a vital role in spermatogenesis, the process of sperm development. Given that a full sperm cycle takes around 64 days, men are encouraged to support their fertility well in advance of trying to conceive.
