Product description
When a couple decide it’s the right time to start a family, it’s a good idea for both partners to ensure their diet and lifestyle help to support the chances of conception and maintain their general wellbeing.
FertilWoman is part of the babystart range of fertility supplements and is a multivitamin and mineral food supplement with amino acids, expertly formulated to increase maternal folate status and nutritionally support women who are trying for a baby.
Who should use FertilWoman?
A sensible decision for any woman planning a pregnancy, is to make sure their intake of vitamins, minerals and amino acids gives them the best chance of conception.
Fertility, reproduction and hormonal activity
FertilWoman contains a comprehensive formulation of nutrients, including Zinc which contributes to normal fertility, reproduction and DNA synthesis. Zinc also contributes to normal maternal tissue growth. The formulation also includes Vitamin B6 which contributes to normal regulation of hormonal activity and Vitamin D, B12 and Iron, all of which contribute to cell division.
FertilWoman also contains Folic Acid which contributes to normal tissue growth.
*Supplemental Folic Acid intake increases maternal folate status (low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus). The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental Folic Acid daily intake of 400µg per day for at least 1 month before and up to 3 months after conception.
The recommended daily intake of FertilWoman® provides 400µg of Folic Acid, exactly the level recommended by the UK Department of Health for women while they are trying to conceive.
