Many women aim to achieve the best possible health before conceiving to increase their chances of a safe, healthy pregnancy and the birth of a thriving baby. This proactive approach to preconception care is an excellent investment in both your and your child’s future. At Rozelle Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, we recommend starting these preparations at least 2 to 3 months before trying to conceive, giving your body the time it needs to adjust and heal.
Our recommendations vary based on each individual’s unique health status. If you’ve been on birth control for many years, have a chronic gynecological condition, or are managing a chronic health disorder, our team will develop a personalized plan tailored to your needs. Whether you’re planning to conceive naturally or through IVF, our approach helps create the best possible conditions for fertility and a successful pregnancy
