Why Fertility Feels So Hard (And How the Right Support Changes Everything)

Enter your New Leaf Fertility Support Team. If you're reading this, chances are you've been trying to conceive for longer than you expected. Maybe you've had months of negative tests, confusing cycle patterns, or conflicting advice from Dr Google. Perhaps you're preparing for IVF and want to give yourself the best possible chance, or you've been told "just relax" one too many times.

Here’s what we know after supporting hundreds of people through their fertility journeys: it’s not supposed to feel this confusing or lonely.

The Gap Between “Just Keep Trying” and Real Answers

Most people come to us feeling stuck between two extremes. On one side, there’s the “just relax and it’ll happen” advice that dismisses real concerns. On the other, there’s an overwhelming amount of information online—conflicting supplement recommendations, restrictive diets, and expensive tests with no clear guidance on what they mean.

What’s missing? Personalised, evidence-based support that actually makes sense for your body and your situation. Our fertility naturopaths, Hannah Boyd and Jacintha Gunasekera have over 25 years of combined experience in helping patients start their families. They’re ready to help you!

 

The Hidden Factors That Make Fertility Feel Impossible

Through our work at New Leaf, we’ve identified seven key areas that often go unaddressed in conventional fertility care:

1. Cycle Irregularities That Get Dismissed

If your cycles are unpredictable, too long, too short, or you’re not ovulating regularly, conception becomes a guessing game. PCOS, thyroid issues, and hormonal imbalances don’t just resolve on their own—they need targeted, individualised treatment.

2. Inflammation No One’s Talking About

Chronic inflammation affects egg quality, implantation, and overall reproductive health. Conditions like endometriosis, autoimmune issues, and gut inflammation create an environment that makes conception harder—but these are all addressable with the right approach.

3. A Nervous System Stuck in Overdrive

Your body won’t prioritise reproduction if it thinks you’re in survival mode. Chronic stress, burnout, and nervous system dysregulation send signals that now isn’t a safe time to conceive. This isn’t about “just relaxing”—it’s about genuine nervous system support.

4. Thyroid Issues Flying Under the Radar

Standard thyroid testing often misses subclinical issues that significantly impact fertility. Even “normal” results can mask problems with ovulation, implantation, and maintaining early pregnancy.

5. Nutritional Gaps That Matter More Than You Think

Folate, B12, iron, zinc, vitamin D, omega-3s—these aren’t just “nice to haves.” Deficiencies in key nutrients directly affect egg quality, hormone production, and your ability to conceive and maintain pregnancy.

6. Treatment Gaps and Conflicting Advice

You might be taking supplements that don’t suit your body, following generic protocols, or receiving advice that contradicts what another practitioner told you. Without a cohesive, personalised plan, you’re working harder without getting closer to your goal.

7. The Emotional Weight of Doing This Alone

Fertility challenges are isolating. You need someone in your corner who understands the science, listens without judgment, and creates a clear path forward—not just another Google search or well-meaning friend saying “it’ll happen when it’s meant to.”

What Actually Works: Personalised, Evidence-Based Naturopathic Care

At New Leaf Naturopathic Health, we don’t do cookie-cutter fertility protocols. Every body is different, every fertility journey is unique, and your treatment plan should reflect that.

Our approach combines:

 

    • Comprehensive health assessments that look at your whole picture—hormones, cycles, thyroid, gut health, inflammation, stress, and nutrition

    • Evidence-based herbal medicine and clinical nutrition tailored specifically to your body and your fertility goals

    • Functional testing when needed to get clear answers (not just more confusion)

    • Ongoing support and adjustments as your body responds and your needs change

    • Collaboration with your medical team if you’re pursuing IVF or other fertility treatments

We’ve supported people through natural conception, IVF preparation and support, recurrent miscarriage, PCOS, endometriosis, “unexplained infertility,” and everything in between.
