Primary Prevention
- Preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as gonorrhea and chlamydia, may reduce your risk of infertility.
- When STIs are detected, early treatment of both partners can decreased chances of PID and subsequent adhesions or risk of infertility. [1]
- Maintaining a healthy diet, weight, and lifestyle may increase your chances for getting pregnant and having a healthy pregnancy.
- Avoiding environmental toxins such as nicotine, marijuana and other drugs.
- Take a prenatal or multivitamin containing folate before and during pregnancy. This lowers your risk for miscarriage and developmental problems in the baby.
