Biohacking your fertility is all about maximizing the areas that impact your fertility in the first place - 100% nothing to do with your actual lady bits. Because let's face it, your doctor has already told you everything looks fine [BIG EYE ROLL]. When you use specific biohacking tools for your fertility, you're boosting your cellular health, which inturns maximise all areas of your fertility including healthy hormones, uterine lining, gut health and egg quality.
Many of these biohacks you've already seen throughout The Formula, but there are a few new biohacks for you to check out & use to maximize your fertility! Where going to cover the top areas that most women [and men] need to focus on:

Sleep:
Fertility Biohacks:
- Obviously, you want to get away from screens, dim your lights and really allow your body and hormones to shift into a sleep and recovery mood. But these biohacks have been life-changing:
Blue Light Glasses - If you have to be in front of screens for one hour before bedtime, I highly suggest looking into getting some glasses that block the artificial light.
Sleep Induction Mat - I've used mine almost every night for over 8 years now!!
Stress & Anxiety Reduction:
Fertility Biohacks:
- Support the vagus nerve and calm the amygdala/limbic system. Increasing your vagal tone can support you to overcome anxiety and depression, and better manage them when they arise. Also, Vagus nerve stimulation can reduce inflammation in your body’s organs, including your reproductive organs. As stated before, stimulating the nerve also reduces stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure along with reducing inflammation, which can possibly increase your chances of achieving pregnancy more easily. WINNING!!
🦩Essential oils help calm the autonomic nervous system by engaging the vagus nerve. Some of the most commonly used essential oils are Ylang Ylang, Lavender, Lemon, Roman Chamomile, Melissa, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, Rose and Nerol. Inhaling essential oils (from the palms of the hands or diffused) has the most immediate and profound effect. I love using the SUN All Over Oil from Indigo Elixirs use code FINDINGFERTILITY for 10% off!!

🦩Get Ice Cold! 🥶 LOL - cold showers, an ice pack in the mid of your chest when your anxiety levels get high - especially in the mid of the night & cold immersion therapy!
Gut Health:
Fertility Biohacks:
- You don’t need to have inflammatory bowel disease to have inflammation in the gut, or your gut causing inflammation in other parts of the body. For example, if you have intestinal permeability (aka “leaky gut”), there could be bacterial products entering the bloodstream, causing your immune system to attack them and cause chronic inflammation. [THIS WAS ME] Now, I always suggest finding your food intolerances & managing your stress levels before using targeted supplementation. And if you're having major gut issues, you'll most likely need a full gut protocol [which you'll discover in week 9], but everyone can benefit from using ION*Gut Health
ION*Gut Health is a gut-strengthening, brain-boosting mineral supplement sourced from 60-million-year-old soil that naturally supports microbiome balance. The active ingredient, Terrahydrite®, has been shown to support the integrity of tight junctions in the gut lining, even in the face of damage from toxins such as glyphosate.
🦩Who should take it: If you're wanting to support gut function & your immune system.
🦩When you should take it: Before meals [if you can] Start with 3-5 drops twice daily increasing slowly as tolerated. You can take up to 5 ml (a teaspoon) three times a day.
🦩Top Tips: I use ION*Gut Health for ongoing gut health support. I don't stress over taking it every day, 3 times a day. When I have top gut health I use it when I remember. When I need more support I make an effort to have it at least twice a day.
🦩Who shouldn't take it: ION*Gut Health is safe for most people, but listen to your body. If you feel this supplement isn't right, stop taking it.
Mindset:
Fertility Biohacks:
- Your subconscious works throughout the day when you are both awake and asleep but takes over entirely when you sleep. Free from the interference of daily life and external stimuli, at night your subconscious mind has nearly all the resources of your brain at its disposal. So this time is incredibly powerful to rewire your limiting beliefs that might be impacting your ability to stick with the physical things you need to improve your fertility.
Listen to reprogramming messages over & over while you sleep. Remember, many of our fertility issues have nothing to do without lady bits. We got to get down to the root cause. Have a think about where you are in your mental & emotional journey and pick the best place for you to start.

It's best to listen to one for around 21 days, but you can play around with listening to something different every night.
Blood Sugar Levels:
Fertility Biohacks:
- Glucose monitoring could be a great tool when discovering the perfect fertility diet for you and how you can use food to maximise your chances of getting and staying pregnant - especially when you're dealing with infertility and/or have insulin resistance PCOS. You can read more about Insulin Spikes and Glucose Levels and the impact on your fertility here: Can Insulin Spikes and Glucose Levels Cause Infertility and PCOS? I highly recommend Veri Continuous Glucose Monitor for great consistent monitoring - use code FINDINGFERTILITY20 for 20% off today.
Cellular Health:
Fertility Biohacks:
- Red light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM) or lightbox therapy uses certain wavelengths of light to restore, repair, and protect tissue that is either injured, degenerating, or at risk of dying. The most effective red light wavelengths range from 630-670 and 810-880. Red light works on the lymphatic system to improve your body’s detoxification abilities by increasing blood flow, which will help boost your cellular health.
“With the use of daily, full-body red and near-infrared light therapy with our devices, not only did [women] see really healthy progesterone increases, but they also saw balanced progesterone to estrogen ratios, which is really important, because estrogen dominance is really common as females age,” says Nelson founder of Joovv - Listen to Shine a (Red) Light on Your Health
