Are you eagerly waiting for your pregnancy test to show 2 lines, which means pregnant? Then look no further, you have come to the right place. If you are looking for a way to boost and protect your fertility health then here is a list of herbs and spices to help you with the fertility process.

Ginger

Ginger is a necessity to make foods delicious and aromatic. But apart from this, it is high in antioxidants, which protect ovaries and eggs from oxidative damage and stress. Ginger also increases blood flow to both male and female genitals, delivering important nutrients and clearing away toxins.

Black Cohosh

Black Cohosh has been used for many centuries to relieve pain and treat wounds. It is also directly proportional to the fertility process. Not only that, black cohosh helps to regularise the menstruation cycle by reducing menstrual pain, premenstrual migraine and also treat ovarian cysts and endometriosis.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon is a very simple spice but can work wonders to improve fertility in both men and women. Cinnamon can warm the whole body which can have a positive effect on sperm quality. It can also balance the blood sugar and insulin level that also helps with PCOS in women.

Chinese herbs

According to some medical experts, Chinese herbs are said to improve fertility especially when taken with other fertility drugs. However, the effect of Chinese herbs itself on fertility is yet to be proven.

Withania somnifera

Ashwagandha is the best herb to treat fertility issues in men. It is believed to improve sperm quality and sperm count. It also helps cure male sexual disorders such as libido, psychogenic impotence, and unexplained infertility.
