Most people don’t think about food when they think about fertility. But what you eat day to day really does affect your hormones, your egg quality, and how ready your body is for pregnancy. At Dr. Mazen IVF, our fertility nutrition team works hand in hand with Dr. Mazen Dayeh — a Consultant Reproductive Endocrinologist with 20+ years of experience — to build an eating plan that actually makes sense for you, whether you’re trying naturally or going through IVF. Your nutrition plan isn’t handed to you by someone who’s never seen your bloodwork. It’s built alongside the specialist reviewing your case.
Why Nutrition Matters for Fertility
It surprises a lot of people how much food ties into fertility. Poor eating habits over time can lead to weight gain, hormone imbalance, and lower quality eggs or sperm. Good foods for fertility do the opposite. They help your body function properly and get you into better shape for pregnancy. Before we suggest anything, we look at your daily diet, your lifestyle, and your medical background. That way the plan is built around your actual life, not some sheet handed to every patient who walks in.
What Our Nutrition Service Includes
When you come in for a fertility nutrition in Dubai consultation, you won’t just get a list of foods to eat and avoid. We spend time first understanding where you’re starting from.
- A real look at your diet and lifestyle – We ask about what you’re eating now, how you’re sleeping, your stress levels, and whether you’re dealing with anything like PCOS, thyroid issues, or low vitamin D. These show up a lot in infertility cases, and food genuinely helps with managing them.
- A plan built for you – Once we know your situation, we create a nutrition plan around it. This isn’t some generic IVF diet everyone leaves with. A woman with PCOS needs something very different from someone dealing with low ovarian reserve or thyroid trouble.
- Support that changes as you progress – What your body needs shifts depending on where you are. Getting ready for treatment, in the middle of an IVF cycle, trying on your own, each stage calls for something a bit different, and we change your plan to match.
- Help with preconception nutrition- Getting your body ready before you even start trying makes a real difference down the line. Preconception nutrition is mainly about fixing gaps, low iron or folic acid being common ones, so your body is in decent shape before pregnancy even starts.
- Check ins along the way – This isn’t something we do once and forget about. We follow up regularly, see how you’re responding, and adjust things whenever needed.
Foods That Support Fertility
Everyone’s plan looks a bit different, but there are some foods for fertility that tend to help most people:
- Leafy greens and colourful vegetables, good sources of antioxidants
- Healthy fats from things like olive oil, nuts, and fish, which support hormone health
- Whole grains instead of refined carbs, helps keep blood sugar more stable
- Lean protein such as eggs, beans, and fish
- Foods with folic acid, important for both partners before conception, not just women
We’ll also point out what’s worth cutting back on. Too much sugar, heavily processed food, and too much caffeine can slowly work against fertility, even if it doesn’t feel that way day to day.
Why Choose Our Fertility Nutritionist in Dubai
Nutrition works better when it isn’t treated as its own separate thing. That’s why our nutrition team stays in constant touch with Dr. Mazen Dayeh throughout your fertility journey, so your eating plan actually supports what’s happening medically instead of running on a different track. Patients regularly tell us this combined approach made them feel more in control of the process — and heading into treatment with a fertility plan built by both a nutritionist AND their Reproductive Endocrinologist, they feel a lot more confident.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can food really change my IVF outcome?
It’s not a guarantee, but a solid diet can support egg quality, hormone balance, and your body’s overall readiness, which helps alongside your medical treatment rather than replacing it.
I have PCOS. Does that change my plan?
Yes, quite a bit actually. PCOS affects insulin and hormones differently than other conditions, so the plan focuses on that instead of following a general fertility diet.
How early should I start preconception nutrition?
A few months before starting treatment is ideal, since it takes a bit of time for changes to actually show in your body. Still, it’s worth starting even if you’re closer to your treatment date.
Will I get a strict meal plan to follow?
Not really. We keep things practical and realistic rather than handing you something rigid you can’t stick to for long.
Is this only for women?
No. Sperm quality is affected by diet too, so we work with both partners when it’s relevant.
