Eat cooked dried beans if you want to get pregnant — Kalyn’s Kitchen

Check what you eat

Taking in unhealthy meals, whether big or not too large can affect fertility as it can make your reproductive cycle irregular. This can cause you to ovulate only occasionally and if you are not careful, you will not ovulate at all. If you consume so much animal protein (beef, pork or chicken), replace them with animal vegetable protein sources such as cooked dried beans and nuts. Add high-fat dairy as well, as this will reduce your risk of ovulatory infertility. Eat foods rich in healthy fats like extra virgin oil. For women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), cutting down on carbs is also recommended. Refined carbs including sugary foods, drinks, and processed grains like white pasta, bread and rice should be avoided if you want to get pregnant as quickly as possible.
