Preparing the Uterus for Pregnancy After Thirty… Simple Steps That Make a Big Difference
Do you know the baby in this picture? This baby had a serious problem, and unfortunately, this problem could have been prevented with a very simple step: proper nutrition before pregnancy! Not with complicated tests, expensive treatments, or MRI scans… but just a dietary regimen called the “Fertility Diet,” which includes enough folic acid. Its deficiency leads to a condition called “spina bifida,” a deformity in the lower spine that can cause the child to have walking difficulties.
So, before you even think about pregnancy, your body needs to be ready—not just with tests, but also with the right food and vitamins that support fertility. Of course, each of us is different, and some women have enzyme deficiencies that prevent the absorption of beneficial nutrients from food. This is where dietary supplements come in—but only under medical supervision, not on your own.
What about exercise?
It needs to be balanced—not too much and not too little. You need to understand, with the help of a fertility doctor or a knowledgeable fitness trainer, what exercises actually help your body rather than exhaust it. You also need to know what to eat before and after exercising because eating at the wrong time can spoil everything.
To provide all this, we have gathered all this information in a comprehensive course—not only for women over forty but also suitable for those in their thirties. Preparation needs to start early, even before you decide to begin the pregnancy journey.
Now, back to caffeine…
That small cup of coffee we used to drink has turned into a large mug that wakes us up but also harms us. High caffeine intake affects fertility by increasing dependency and causing the body to flush out water, which impacts all vital processes. The solution? Not to stop suddenly, but to gradually reduce it until you’re free from it without withdrawal symptoms.
What if you get pregnant?
Some cases develop anemia as soon as pregnancy is confirmed, and many say, “Just take iron!” The truth is no. The first three months of pregnancy are not the best time to take iron because the body cannot tolerate too much. It’s better to have your iron stores built up before pregnancy through food and vitamins.
There are also vitamins like L-Arginine, Coenzyme Q10, and Zinc that are important before pregnancy but are not always safe or beneficial during pregnancy. That’s why you need to prepare yourself before pregnancy and take what your body needs at the right time.

An important point: track your menstrual cycle!
It’s not acceptable to come to the clinic, be asked “When did your period start?” and answer “I don’t remember.” You must monitor and record it because that helps us know if ovulation is regular or not, and we might detect problems early.
On the Tebibty website, we have provided a way for you to record your cycle dates and track your condition accurately.
What’s the difference between a gynecologist and a fertility specialist?
There is a big difference. Not every gynecologist specializes in fertility and infertility. Some doctors focus on normal pregnancy and childbirth, while others keep themselves updated with everything new in IVF, infertility, and fertility fields.
And support?
Support is very important—whether from a doctor, a specialist, or even someone close to you who encourages and stands by you. It’s not just the wife; the husband also has a big role. He needs to take his vitamins, avoid smoking, drink enough water, and reduce stress because he is also part of the equation.
And finally, not all delayed pregnancies mean IVF.
Many cases thought they needed IVF, but we started with simpler steps, and God blessed them with natural pregnancy. All the stories you’ve heard and seen from our clinic confirm this. IVF has its time, but it’s not always the starting point.
If you are struggling with infertility, we have gathered here all the topics related to delayed pregnancy in detailed lessons with scientifically documented and organized information to help you achieve the motherhood dream you deserve:
