Fresh off a trip to Florida, I came home and got hit with a flu so hard it knocked me off my feet for almost a week. It drained me physically, emotionally and mentally. As I slowly recovered, I kept thinking about you, because when you're trying to conceive, getting sick brings up a whole extra layer of worry. Will this mess up my cycle? Did I just lose this month? What if I conceived and I have a fever?
In today's episode, I explain what really happens in your body when you catch a virus. I also cover how a cold or flu can affect your cycle depending on whether you're in your follicular phase, around ovulation or in your two-week wait, and what the research says about implantation and early pregnancy. Then I share my top science-backed remedies for supporting your body through flu season, including the one supplement to use with caution in your luteal phase. Grab a cozy blanket and a cup of tea, and let's help you stay healthy and fertile this fall.
