I have always heard of needing iron during child bearing years. And the older folks stressed proper nutrition. My generation/socioeconomic group ate a lot of meat. We followed the American trend at the time. Now we realize that we need 75% fruits, veggies, grains, etc. There is definitely something there.

I cant see spinach as the reason for infertility by a long shot.

Are they not allowed to recommend meat? Doesn't it have the highest amount of iron? Red meat?

Odd how they keep recommending spinach as a source of iron when recent articles keep stating that something in spinach interferes with iron absorption.

Maybe that's why I never conceived. Now it's too late...

Or TOO HIGH IRON. I did five years of IVF without success and with hindsight found I had hemochromatosis, previously I had repeated miscarriages....Iron maybe a factor, but what is key - is yours in the right range. Also does it stay in the right range after becoming pregnant.

Other symptoms are aching hands, tiredness.....
