The good news: Not only are both conditions relatively easy to reverse, often significant improvement can come about with all natural solutions – changes in diet, lifestyle and nutrition that not only reduce symptoms but in the process boost fertility and make conception possible – even in women who have been told their only chance is donor eggs! As such Green Fertility devotes two complete chapters to each of these conditions. Some of what you'll find in these chapters: ·
How to identify the sometimes silent symptoms.
·
How to know if this is your fertility problem.
·
How to encourage a healthy menstrual cycle – even if you are not menstruating now.

Foods that reduce inflammation – and put you on the path to good reproductive health.

What patients are saying about
Green Fertility : Green Fertility is the Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant But don’t just take our word for it! Read what patients who have tried the Green Fertility plan have to say ... “I had been trying to get pregnant for 5 years. I had been previously treated by other doctors with several rounds of fertility drugs but never conceived. When I got to Dr. Lauersen’s office he performed several tests and told me I did not need fertility drugs – Instead he gave me a list of vitamins and supplements to take and told me what to eat and not eat . I followed his lifestyle advice completely and within 2 months I got pregnant naturally and eventually gave birth to my son. I followed his advice a second time, and 6 months after my first birth I got pregnant again and gave birth to my second son – all naturally.”
“I had difficulty getting pregnant but when I found Dr. Lauersen, his positive attitude and his explanations of what vitamins, supplements and foods to eat helped me get healthier. A few months after following his recommendations I was pregnant with Peter, my beautiful healthy boy who was 8 pounds when he was born! He is now healthy and strong and smart!” LUCY J - Westchester, NY

“
“People who do not have problems conceiving a child do not understand the extent of the mental and heartfelt anguish infertility can cause. I was miserable and angry because I wanted to have children and I could not. When I finally found Dr. Lauersen, he was very positive about my being able to get pregnant , and he gave us hope. I followed his diet, and his vitamin and lifestyle regime and under his direction and care, it was not long after that we conceived our son. Children are a blessing from God and Dr. Lauersen. We are blessed . “ Jody S., New Jersey
“ I never thought I would have a baby but just as we were about to give up, my friend referred us to Dr. Lauersen who immediately gave me new hope with his natural approach to conception. He put me on a special fertility diet to encourage ovulation and help me gain a few pounds, and he gave me and my husband a vitamin and supplement regimen to follow. At his suggestion we made a few lifestyle changes to help us deal with our stress and within several months we could hardly believe it when he told us we were finally pregnant with our daughter! We had waited so long and our dream finally came true. A couple of years later we followed the same regime and conceived our wonderful son! “

GREEN FERTILITY: NATURE’S SECRETS FOR MAKING BABIES
Sample Chapter INTRODUCTION
How Mother Nature Can Help You Get Pregnant Faster & Easier! etting pregnant is one of the most beautiful and natural of all life’s activities. It is, in fact, what “boy meets girl” is really all about! And much like that special chemistry that draws you and your life partner together, so too does a special kind of chemistry draw your egg to his sperm. And when they meet … magic happens, as the most natural of all unions occurs: A baby is created! And it’s been happening this way since the beginning of time – and continues to happen every day for millions of couples all over the world. At the same time, if you and your partner are like many couples trying to conceive today, the pregnancy “ magic” seems a bit elusive. While you’re sure you’re doing everything “right”, still, conception just isn’t occurring, certainly not as quickly or as easily as you thought it would. In fact, you may even be asking yourselves why, if pregnancy is such a natural event, it doesn’t occur as quickly and easily for all couples who try?

not as quickly or as easily as you thought it would. In fact, you may even be asking yourselves why, if pregnancy is such a natural event, it doesn’t occur as quickly and easily for all couples who try? And if that is the question that’s on your mind, let me reassure you that you are not alone. As a fertility specialist for nearly two decades and an obstetrician for over three decades, I can tell you without hesitation this is a question I have heard over and over, thousands of times. So what is the answer? For many couples, it’s just a matter of patience and time! Indeed, no two couples work on the same pregnancy “ time table” – and by that I mean conception is such a unique and individual experience, that no two couples will get pregnant at the exact same moment, even if they “try” on the same schedule. The truth is, that even under the most “normal” circumstances there is only a 25% chance a pregnancy will occur during any given menstrual cycle so certainly it’s possible for conception to take up to a year to occur – and still fall within the normal time frame. At the same time, however, for some couples there are sometimes obstacles which can get in the way of getting pregnant – and in many ways make conception much harder than it has to be. What kind of obstacles? Certainly, for a small number of couples these obstacles are rooted in medical problems existing somewhere in their reproductive system. For women it can commonly be a blockage in the fallopian tubes that keep sperm and egg from uniting, or sometimes a problem related to producing or ovulating eggs. In men problems are usually related to sperm that is either defective, slow moving, or in too low a concentration. And in both men and women problems conceiving can be linked to an infection. And if any of these issue turn out to be the reason behind your conception problems, there is a multitude of treatments available to help. But if you’re like most couples having a problem getting pregnant today, research has shown – and my vast experience has proven to me – that there is likely no serious problems standing in your way. Indeed, you may be very surprised to learn that for the majority of couples who visit a fertility clinic - and I believe tens of thousands of those who don’t - the diagnosis turns out to be something we call “unexplained infertility “.
Essentially, this means that although you may be having problems conceiving, tests show both you and your partner are healthy, with no signs that something is wrong. So… now you’re probably asking yourself “ If you can’t find anything wrong – then why can’t I get pregnant?” And that is where Mother Nature comes back into the equation.

Essentially, this means that although you may be having problems conceiving, tests show both you and your partner are healthy, with no signs that something is wrong. So… now you’re probably asking yourself “ If you can’t find anything wrong – then why can’t I get pregnant?” And that is where Mother Nature comes back into the equation.
Overcoming “Unexplained Infertility” Naturally! Although the diagnosis of “unexplained infertility” leads us to believe there is, in fact, no reason you can’t get pregnant, both common sense and science tells us this cannot be true. When something goes wrong – even in nature – there is always a reason, even if we don’t know right off, what that reason is. And the same is true for “unexplained infertility.” Indeed, when this is the case it often means there is “something” some small, sub-clinical problem in one or often both partners - sometimes too small to even measure in a blood test or identify during an exam – that has formed a stumbling block to conception. In my experience – that “stumbling block”, that indefinable “something”, can be found in lifestyle factors. Indeed, the latest research – as well as my own personal medical experience – has shown that everything from the foods and nutrients you eat (or miss out on ) to the products you use, the environment in which you live, work and play, your daily habits like smoking or drinking alcohol, your exercise routines, and especially, how you deal with the everyday and the big-time stresses in your life – these are the kinds of things that can have not only an important impact on your overall health, but more so on your ability to get pregnant. In fact, nowhere is the power of Mother Nature more evident than when you stop to look at all the ways in which your life and your lifestyle impact your fertility.

What’s more, while many couples believe that the only way to “fix “ a fertility problem is via expensive medical treatments, I can promise you that this is not so! In fact, some of the most successful “fertility fixes” aren’t found in a doctor’s office or even a reproductive laboratory. For the vast majority of couples trying to get pregnant, Mother Nature holds the secret to pregnancy success! Moreover, with just a little bit of knowledge and a few small changes in your diet and lifestyle habits, you can unlock those secrets and get pregnant faster and easier than you ever believed was possible. And this is true whether you have just begun to try, or you’ve been trying for a long time with no success! And when you think about it, the power of Mother Nature to get you there, is not really so hard to understand – or believe. In the past decade and particularly in the last several years, evidence continues to mount indicating that diet and lifestyle changes can make an enormous positive difference on so many aspects of our health. From prevention of life threatening illnesses like cancer, heart disease and diabetes, clear down to the common cold, one of the most significant scientific lessons put in place this past decade has been the enormously important role that preventive lifestyle changes can play in not only keeping us from getting sick, but also helping us to heal the problems that plague us. And nowhere is this tenant truer than when it comes to the world of fertility. In fact, while there have been great strides and tremendous success with some amazing scientific and medical developments in the treatment of infertility, I am happy to tell you there have been an equal number of impressive advances made in identifying important links between lifestyle and fertility as well.
And certainly, for me, none of this has come as any great surprise. I have been a strong proponent of the importance of diet and lifestyle factors and the valuable role they play in encouraging fertility since I began my medical practice in the 1970’s! Throughout all my many books on pregnancy and reproductive health, including my best selling book “ Getting Pregnant: What You Need To Know”, I have always emphasized the important role that both diet and lifestyle can and should play in not only getting pregnant, but in insuring the birth of a happy, healthy baby – a baby that also grows forward with superior health and happiness throughout their lifetime. In fact, I can tell you with all certainty that I helped thousands of couples go from infertile to fertile by doing nothing more than making a few small but significant changes in certain lifestyle habits. I have seen the miracles happen, and I have delivered thousands of these “miracle babies” - so I can tell you not just from the research, but from my first hand experience, that diet and lifestyle issues - and they matter a lot. And it’s not just in cases of “unexplained infertility.”

The noted Harvard Nurses study of some 18,000 women, validated the idea that women who paid attention to lifestyle factors – including diet – had up an 80 percent lower rate of certain types of infertility, then women who did not pay attention to these factors.
Indeed, even for those patients who, for one reason or another, come to require medical treatment for their fertility problems, those who also focus on their diet and lifestyle habits no doubt have a much higher rate of conception success – and go on to deliver healthier babies – far more often than those who chose to believe that medicine alone provides all their answers. Today, I am proud and happy to tell you that the philosophies I have long subscribed to and written about, and the diet and lifestyle changes I have always suggested to my patients as a way of encouraging conception, have come to fruition, having been proven to work in several major and important studies. Indeed, the noted Harvard Nurses study of some 18,000 women, validated the idea that women who paid attention to lifestyle factors – including diet – had up an 80 percent lower rate of certain types of infertility, then women who did not pay attention to these factors. In another new study published by researchers from the Department of Nutritional Sciences at Pennsylvania State University it is suggested that diet, particularly one featuring foods high in antioxidant vitamins like C and E, can play a role in not only increasing the opportunity to get pregnant faster, but at the same time help reduce the risk of early miscarriage. In short, each week my desk is piled high with studies showing that for many women trying to get pregnant, lifestyle factors may be one of the most important factors to consider today. In fact, in many instances, making just a few simple changes could tip the scales from infertile to fertile in just a few months time, without the need for costly fertility testing and treatments!

HOW THIS BOOK WILL HELP YOU Although the research in this area has continued to prove time and again just how effective this “natural” approach to boosting fertility can be, as I traveled the country talking to couples who were having difficulty conceiving, I began to realize how few men and women were actually taking advantage of all we had learned. While some couples would have bits and pieces of information on how lifestyle and infertility could be entwined, time and again I began to see how few really had the “whole picture”. Even more disturbing was how often proven facts about “natural fertility” were being diluted by anecdotal evidence – or confused with totally unproven theories. Unfortunately because the word “ natural” still by and large represents “unregulated territory”, too often what has never been proven to work gets the same “headline value” as those things that have been scientifically validated. As time went on I began to see how difficult it can be for many couples to sort through all they hear or read to get to the truly solid evidence concerning what works and what doesn’t to boost fertility. And that is exactly why I decided to write this book – a “green print” to pregnancy success that simply and effortlessly guides you to the most important , proven and up-to-date medical research on the natural lifestyle changes that impact fertility. But it doesn’t stop here. Because in this book I will also teach the secrets to using all this new scientific information in a way that will enhance your personal fertility profile. In fact, my goal for this book is to help you and your partner create your own personal “green print” for healthy conception – a quick and easy way to identify the factors standing the way of your fertility – and the equally quick and easy solutions that can turn your fertility odds around. And throughout this book , this is what you will find! Not only is it packed with the latest, most important research covering every lifestyle factor known to affect fertility, it’s also brimming with my personal, time-tested , proven diet and lifestyle advice, featuring solutions that have already guided thousands of my own fertility patients to successful pregnancies for over two decades! And the really good news: Once you put these changes into place, most couples can turn their fertility odds around in just 60 to 90 days! Imagine, in less than three months from today, you could be pregnant! Plus, you will feel better, and your overall health will be better so that you can go forward into your pregnancy giving your baby the very best chance in life!
