High Cortisol, Low Progesterone. The Hidden Fertility Link

Описание: Let’s talk about cortisol and fertility, because this is not just about stress. It is about your nervous system living in survival mode for far too long.

And if you are trying to conceive, this matters. Not because stress magically blocks pregnancy, but because chronically elevated cortisol has real effects on your hormones and cycle:

It can reduce progesterone

Delay or disrupt ovulation

Raise blood sugar and drive insulin resistance

Increase inflammation

Interfere with thyroid hormones

Contribute to spotting or shorter luteal phases

Signal to your body that it is not a safe time to conceive

This is not you being weak or dramatic. This is your physiology protecting you.

When you have been holding everything together for years, managing careers, responsibilities, appointments, heartbreaks, and hope all at once, sometimes your body says,
"I am working so hard to keep you safe. I don’t have capacity for anything else right now."

That does not mean you are broken. It means your body has been doing its best for you.

Real fertility support is not about trying harder or forcing your body into submission. It is about restoring a sense of safety inside your system so your hormones do not have to fight for balance.

Start gently:

Eat slowly instead of rushing

Eat a grounding breakfast with protein

Take five minutes a day to breathe and slow down

Walk instead of punishing workouts

Allow real rest without guilt

Try magnesium in the evening

Practice saying no without apology

Your body does not need perfection. It needs peace and capacity again.
