population. It includes real-life approaches involving both

Promotion reproductive health:
Have frequent intercourse, especially 5 days before
and after ovulation.
Don’t smoke.
Limit alcohol.
Cut back on caffeine if you’re a woman.

Heat exposure can lower sperm count in men, so
wear loose underwear, avoid hot tubs, and don’t
rest your laptop computer near your scrotum.
Get plenty of sleep.
Try to avoid night shift work, which can disrupt
hormone production.
Exercise regularly, but don’t overdo it!
Excess exercise can interfere with ovulation. Limit
vigorous exercise to 5 hours or less per week if
you’re trying to get pregnant.
Take folic acid supplements to improve ovulation
and, if you conceive, prevent birth defects.
Limit meat in your diet. Eat more fish rich in
omega-3 fatty acids or plant-based proteins.
