Supporting Fertility in Practice: Nutrition, Lifestyle & Functional Insight

with Gwen Bastian Enright

Fertility is about far more than getting pregnant — it’s a powerful marker of overall hormonal, metabolic, and nutritional health.

In this practical, evidence-informed webinar, designed specifically for Nutrition & Health Coaches and Nutritional Therapists, you’ll gain the confidence and clarity to support clients experiencing fertility challenges — whether they are actively trying to conceive, planning ahead, or navigating unexplained symptoms.

We’ll cover the foundations of fertility and infertility, explore key female and male factors, and look at how nutrition, lifestyle, and functional insight can be used ethically and effectively within your scope of practice. You’ll also gain guidance on supporting clients who have experienced miscarriage, and how functional testing can inform (but not replace) nutritional care.

This session is ideal for nutrition professionals who want to feel more confident, informed, and grounded when fertility shows up in client work.

What You'll learn:

  • The fundamentals of fertility and infertility (female and male)

  • Key lifestyle and nutritional factors that impact reproductive health

  • How to support fertility nutritionally without overstepping scope

    A brief look at miscarriages and when and how functional testing can support your work

Date & Time: Tuesday 24th March, 7:00-8:30pm

Cost: €18/£15  (FREE for members of our Alumni Community Hub)

CPD points: 1 personal or NTOI registered point (contact ciara@iinh.net for Cert afterwards)
