What’s happening
Kate asks Natalie about her exciting new initiative called Fertility Matters at Work which you can follow on insta @fertilitymattersatwork Natalie has teamed up with Becky Kearns @definingmum and @ivfatwork
with the aim of raising awareness about your fertility experiences at work – regarding what’s happening in your workplace how supported are you and what needs to change? The project will then be going into workplaces with training offerings to HR professionals and management.

While you’re enjoying your cuppa, take a look @thekitschhen and her scrummy Biscuit cakes.
Kate answers your burning fertility questions
Harriet asks what she can do to control her lean PCOS? Kate recommends Harriet tries the supplement Inositol to regulate her cycle, promote good egg quality, reduce her PCOS symptoms and promote ovulation. If Harriet is underweight, Kate recommends she makes sure her BMI is normal as a low BMI may be the cause of anovulation.
Suzy asks should she take time off work after embryo transfer? Kate says that it’s important to listen to your body. If you’re feeling exhausted after all your treatment then taking some time off may be just what you need. Alternatively, some women find that working during the two-week wait is a good distraction. Be guided by your body.
Karen asks how she can thicken her uterine lining. IVF treatments and Clomid for example may cause a thin lining. Kate recommends enjoying moderate exercise, reduce caffeine and avoid allergy medication if you can. Acupuncture and fertility massage may help to improve uterine lining. Finally, one research study showed that the supplements Vitamin E and L-Arginine may help to improve uterine lining thickening.
