Supporting the Energy and Quality of Your Eggs/Embryos

As women age, the tiny energy centers inside the eggs—called mitochondria—begin to function less efficiently. Because eggs require tremendous energy to mature properly, divide correctly, and support early embryo development, this decline can lead to poorer egg quality, fewer healthy embryos, and greater difficulty conceiving. Fertility naturally decreases with age, and markers such as AMH may also decline over time, reflecting changes in ovarian reserve and reproductive potential. But there is help: targeted lifestyle changes, nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, and supportive reproductive care may help improve the body’s internal environment and support better outcomes.
