Let’s take a trip down memory lane 🩷 Because if you were doing these things 20 years ago, it might be time to start thinking about how to future-proof your fertility.
The truth is, our fertility longevity depends on keeping our cells, hormones, and mitochondria healthy as we move through our 30s and 40s.
- DHEA-S naturally declines after our mid-20s, and it’s one of the most important hormones for maintaining healthy eggs and ovarian function.
- In your 30s or 40s? You’re officially in the era of supporting your mitochondria, the tiny powerhouses that fuel egg development. CoQ10 (300–600 mg daily) helps your eggs stay youthful and energetic.
- Small nightly doses of melatonin can help defend against oxidative stress and slow ovarian aging (research typically uses 2-5 mg per night)
- Antioxidants like vitamin C, E, and carotenoids protect your eggs from free radical damage and support reproductive longevity.
- Focus on fiber (30g daily) to keep blood sugar stable and feed the healthy bacteria in the gut.
