Episode 268: Getting Pregnant Naturally After Birth Control
If you’ve been trying to get pregnant, have very irregular cycles, a history of long-term birth control use, and a high-stress lifestyle, this episode is for you. In this episode, I’m walking you through a real fertility case study to show what’s possible when we stop chasing quick fixes and instead support the body as a whole. This client’s story is a powerful reminder that fertility challenges aren’t always complex — but they do require the right foundations.
In this episode I’m sharing:
Why coming off birth control without proper nutrient replenishment often leads to irregular or missing ovulation
How chronic stress and a “go-go-go” lifestyle quietly suppress ovulation and fertility
Why we started with a hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) instead of running endless labs
What mineral patterns like low sodium, potassium, magnesium, and high calcium tell us about adrenals, thyroid, and cellular stress
The role of zinc, copper, and mineral balance in ovulation, egg quality, estrogen, and progesterone
Why low detox capacity doesn’t mean you should push detox, and how doing so can backfire
How supporting digestion improves mineral absorption and hormone signaling
Why fertility work must include both partners, not just the woman
I also share how we approached her retest and what changed:
How improving cellular vitality allowed her body to begin detoxing safely
Why retesting labs uncovers the next layer of healing instead of guessing
How nervous system support, habit-building, and letting go of perfection became a turning point
Why fertility healing isn’t about forcing results, but creating safety, nourishment, and resilience
Just weeks after her retest, this client became pregnant, not through aggressive protocols, but through steady replenishment, stress reduction, and foundational support. This episode is meant to educate, encourage, and remind you that your body is not broken. With the right support, timing, and patience, fertility can return, often more simply than you’ve been led to believe.
If you’re navigating fertility challenges and want to understand why your body is responding the way it is, this episode will help you see the bigger picture and where to start.
