Susan Horgan: Nutritional Therapist

Get your health on track & maximise your chances of becoming mum 

Are you looking to take charge of your fertility and prepare your body and mind for that much longed-for pregnancy?
Chances are, if you've made your way here, then you may have hit a few bumps in the road while trying to conceive.  No matter where on the journey you find yourself, the support and advice you need is at hand.
Are you:
  • just starting to try for a baby and wonder if there’s stuff you should be doing?
  • trying for a while with no success?
  • diagnosed with ‘unexplained’ infertility or your partner has issues with his sperm?
  • managing a condition that impacts fertility (such as endometriosis, fibroids or PCOS)?
  • preparing for a cycle of IVF or have had previous unsuccessful attempts?
  • struggling to get pregnant with a second or subsequent child?

Can I let you in on a secret?  Making a baby can be really hard.  

At the most basic level, you need an egg and a sperm.  Eggs take around 3-4 months to mature and sperm are produced in 2-3 month cycles.  So what you do in that preconception period can really make a big difference to both - from food choices, stress levels, sleep and more.

When you add on the range of other factors that need to be working properly to achieve a healthy pregnancy, such as hormones, genetics, nutritional status, toxic load, thyroid function, the microbiome and the immune system, you can see how it quickly becomes a really delicate balancing act.

 

I love to help cut through the noise and get clarity on what you are dealing with so you can regain control of your fertility and give yourself the best chance of getting pregnant. 

Fertility Conception Pregnancy
I have two ways to support women and couples looking to focus on their health & boost their chances of having that dream baby
1. Fertility & Preconception Power Hour

What would you want to ask me if you had an hour to pick my brains?  A Power Hour is just that - a once-off 60 minute session where you can get the answers to all of the questions you have swirling around in your head.

A Power Hour is for you if you:

  • are just starting to try for a baby and are looking to know how to support your (and your partners) fertility naturally

  • have questions about nutrients you need and how to get them through diet and supplements

  • have been trying for a while but nothing is happening and want to understand how to improve your chances of getting pregnant

2. Making Baby - a Nutritional Therapy package targeting Fertility & Conception

Are you looking for the peace of mind that comes from having someone there to hold your hand through what can be an incredibly emotional journey?  Someone to take a deep breath with you and help you focus your mind and give you clarity on what you are actually dealing with?  Then look no further - 'Making Baby' is a coaching package offering 1:1 Nutritional Therapy support to women or couples wanting to boost fertility and maximise your chances of getting pregnant .

This is for you if you:

  • have a chronic condition that can impact fertility (PCOS, fibroids, endometriosis etc)

  • have been trying to conceive for more than 12 months or have suffered multiple miscarriages

  • are diagnosed with "unexplained infertility" or your partner has issues with his sperm

  • are undergoing IVF or other fertility treatments

and

  • want to be prepared, physically and emotionally, for whatever direction the journey might take

Over the course of 6 sessions, we'll look at the many factors that can impact your egg health, sperm health and overall fertility - hormone balance, nutrient status, lifestyle, toxic load, thyroid function etc - with the aim of identifying potential root causes of any fertility issues.  Your action plan will be tailored specifically to your needs and will guide you on how to rebalance your fertility through 4 key lenses - Nourishment, Lifestyle, the Microbiome and Supplements.

Have any of these thoughts crossed your mind?:

  • "I don't think we need help just yet"

  • "We can't afford it at the moment"

  • "We're saving for IVF, so this costs too much"

These are reservations that come up a lot, and it can mean that people only seek help when they are desperate and as a last resort.  In fact, the sooner you get any issues identified and addressed, the more straightforward it will be for you to get results and get your fertility back on track.  Nutritional therapy can help to maximise your chances of conceiving, but it is not a magic wand - it requires time and commitment to get the outcome you want.

Still a bit unsure about which option is right for you?
