You may be wondering if you read this title properly. Yes, I’am actually implying that music can be therapeutic for fertility. Mostly by means of reducing stress, since the stress response has such a dramatic impact on your hormones. The stress of trying to conceive can be all-consuming. Music has been proven to alter brain waves and reduce cortisol (your main stress hormone). Why not use smooth tunes to improve wellbeing as you go through this challenging time?

Music has been a part of human culture for millennia, and its effects on the human body have been widely explored. Music can stimulate the release of endorphins, our which can boost mood and promote relaxation. In fact, certain types of relaxing music can also modulate heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing. Music actually helps regulate some hormonal feedback systems, such as your HPA axis (hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis). The HPA regulates how stress affects other systems, such as your reproductive hormones.

It’s no secret that chronic stress can wreck havoc on the body, often disrupting ovulation cycles, suppressing progesterone production or and causing free radical damage. Research suggests that music – with its ability to soothe, uplift, and even regulate physiological responses – has the potential to be an incredibly valuable tool in the journey towards conception. A study of 60 female volunteers, for example, suggests that calming music brought down their stress responses almost instantly. So, Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or undergoing fertility treatments, incorporating music into your daily routine might not only enhance your fertility but also make your journey more enjoyable. Tune into today’s episode to get the goods on all things music and fertility.
