Many women live with polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS) for years without realising it.

PCOS affects around 1 in 10 women and is the most common metabolic disorder during the reproductive years. Yet for many, the condition remains undiagnosed, especially when symptoms are mild or inconsistent.

PCOS matters because it affects hormones, ovulation, metabolism, and fertility 🤍

Understanding what is happening in the body can bring reassurance and help people take informed next steps.

The experience of PCOS is not the same for everyone. Some women may not have obvious symptoms. Others notice changes to their menstrual cycles, hair growth or hair loss, weight, or skin. Some only become aware when they experience difficulty conceiving. For others, PCOS may not be recognised until later years, when metabolic health is affected. In all cases, early recognition and evidence-based support can make a meaningful difference 🌱

At JIVA Fertility, we take a multidisciplinary approach to PCOS care. Our dietitian and nutritionist, Maria Kolotourou, Online Dietitian, supports patients with personalised nutritional guidance to help manage metabolic health as part of their fertility journey.

We often see how clarity and evidence-based guidance can reduce anxiety and help people feel more in control of their fertility health.

We have explained what PCOS is, why it is so common, and what symptoms to watch for, using international guidance and a patient-first approach.

Many people don’t realise how quickly fertility can change when planning for more than one child. 👶

If you’re hoping for two or more children, when you start trying really matters, especially as female age and to certain extent male age, recovery time between pregnancies, and fertility decline all play a role.

Over 80% of couples conceive within a year if the woman is under 40 and having regular, unprotected sexual in*******se. But that number drops to 45-55% after the age 40 years.

The NHS and NICE recommend waiting at least 18 months between pregnancies to support maternal and baby health. 🩺

That means for many, starting sooner than expected can give the best chance of growing the family you want.

At JIVA Fertility, we offer personalised support to help you make informed decisions, whatever your timeline.

We’ve explained what to watch for and how to plan with confidence.

A gentle reminder for anyone on a fertility journey:

Most pregnancies, whether conceived naturally or through fertility treatment, sadly do not result in a live birth. Early pregnancy loss is far more common than people realise, and it often reflects biology rather than anything someone did or didn’t do.

For those trying for pregnancy, understanding miscarriage can bring both clarity and comfort. Yet this topic is often left unspoken, adding to the sense of isolation many feel.

📊 Miscarriage affects around 1 in 5 confirmed pregnancies*. Most occur within the first few weeks and are often due to chromosomal problems in the embryos, that happen by chance.

🧬 While age of parents, certain health conditions, and lifestyle factors can influence the risk, many people with these factors still go on to have healthy pregnancies.

At JIVA Fertility, we’ve shared a clear, compassionate overview of what impacts miscarriage risk, when to seek support, and in certain circumstances, how investigations and early ultrasound scans may help.

💛 Thyroid & Fertility: What’s the Connection?

If you're trying to conceive, you might have been told to “watch your thyroid levels.” But what does that really mean? And do borderline results truly affect your chances?

📌 Here’s what the research tells us:

✅ Upper end of normal TSH levels (like 2.5–4.0 mIU/L) usually don’t reduce fertility or increase miscarriage risk in women with no previous evidence of hypothyroidism.

✅ Women with subfertility have slightly higher TSH (>4.0 mIU/L) and these levels can affect fertility treatment outcome

✅ Presence of thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies increase the risk of miscarriage, but the effect on fertility is unknown

✅ Combination of of raised TPO antibodies and TSH levels of >4.0 mIU/L is associated with increased risks of miscarriage and pregnancy complications

✅ Not every thyroid variation needs treatment

✅ A normal thyroid function test in the 12 months preceding conception is important.

At JIVA Fertility, we believe in evidence-based, personalised care, not unnecessary medications or fear over numbers. Your journey is unique, and so is our approach to your health.

💬 Have questions about your thyroid and fertility?
