10 Day Liver Support Reset

When you think about how to optimize fertility, you may not initially think about supporting your liver health. But that is why you’re here! To learn more than just surface level fertility education. 

​

The liver is a very busy organ. It is responsible for over 500 functions in the body, and many of these directly relate to fertility:

​

1. Hormone metabolism and balance

   • Metabolizes and excretes excess hormones, like estrogen. If estrogen doesn’t get eliminated, it can get reabsorbed into the body leading to symptoms of excess estrogen, like heavy and painful periods, weight gain, breast tenderness, headaches, fibroids, endometriosis, etc.

   • The liver also produces sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), a protein that transports sex hormones in the bloodstream, and imbalances in this can affect the levels of free, active hormones.

2. Nutrient processing & storage​

   • The liver processes nutrients from food and stores essential vitamins and minerals crucial for reproductive health, including Vitamins A, B12, folate, iron, copper, and zinc. These nutrients are vital for healthy egg and sperm development, DNA synthesis, and embryonic development.

3. Blood sugar regulation

   • A healthy liver helps maintain stable blood sugar and insulin levels, which is an important factor for ovulation. Blood sugar regulation is particularly important for women looking to support fertility with PCOS, as insulin resistance is often a driver of PCOS symptoms, such as annovulation (no ovulation = no periods), irregular cycle lengths, weight gain, increased facial hair (hirsutism), acne, hair loss from head, etc.

4. Detoxification

   • The liver acts as a primary filter, breaking down and expelling toxins and waste products from the body that could otherwise negatively impact the reproductive system and overall health

When your liver becomes overburdened by daily exposures to toxins from your food, water, excess alcohol, prescription or recreational drug use, cleaning products, personal care products, occupational exposures, etc. - this puts a strain on your liver functioning.

It will continue to do its important job, but it will prioritize the threats (toxins) first. This means there is less capacity for the functions essential for optimizing your fertility (as listed above).

​

This will ultimately lead to a sluggish liver that is just working on damage control vs. living its best life.

​
