Important Disclaimer
Infertility is a complex condition. The program helps you understand and address the common underlying factors driving it.
It explains how optimal nutrition enables the normal functioning of your ovaries, womb lining, hormones, digestion, immune system, and cellular metabolism regardless of your infertility condition, and how poor nutrition compromises all of these functions.
It guides you through implementing a nutrition plan optimised to your body’s specific needs with a focus on supporting mitochondrial energy production.
It is important to understand that this program does not claim to ‘cure’ any infertility condition. Neither I nor anyone else can guarantee a successful conception or pregnancy, but this program is my best effort to help you achieve that.
I occasionally offer opinions on how my program complements certain medical approaches to infertility such as surgery, IVF, IUI, or ovulation induction drugs. I do it from an evidence based respectful perspective without giving nor contradicting any medical advice.
None of the personalised investigations I suggest in the program are medically diagnostic in any way – rather they are functional and intended to help you understand your body better.
I strongly encourage you to consult your doctor for medical advice on fertility before starting this program, especially if you are currently taking any medications.
About me
I’m Brendan O’Brien NT MSc, the Natural Fertility Consultant and author of
For the last 15 years I’ve worked with couples struggling to conceive or maintain a healthy pregnancy.
Had I been unable to have children of my own it would have broken something in me, and seeing the anguish of those who cannot start their own family provoked me to commit myself to figuring out answers. I have worked on nothing else ever since.
I hold a master’s degree in the science of Personalised Nutrition, and a Practice Diploma in Nutritional Therapy. I also teach Nutrition Therapy Principles & Philosophy, and supervise clinical training at the International Institute of Nutrition & Health (IINH). I take continuous training in Functional Endocrinology and Nutritional Immunology.
I live in Limerick, Ireland with my wife Siobhán, our three children Ethan, David, and Kara-Maria (as well as four little dogs that would melt your heart!).

A few personal thoughts on WHY I created the Program
My work originally involved helping women prepare their bodies for the intense nutritional demands of pregnancy so that their children would not be born deficient in key nutrients, which is now a common occurrence. I am deeply concerned about the gradual decline in children’s health, much of which stems from poor nutrition during the critical “first thousand days” from conception – a fact that is now borne out by science.
From here I moved into helping women with infertility prepare for pregnancy because I met so many who were struggling, but my original motivation to help newborn babies start their life on a strong nutritional footing is still very much there in my heart.
Over the years I’ve witnessed the struggle of infertility many times and I know that the hardest part of it is dealing with uncertainty. The constant sense of not knowing if or when it will end can be overwhelming, confidence-shattering, and exhausting. I’ve seen couples give up in despair thinking they had ‘tried everything’ when they really hadn’t, and others who were forced to stop due to the mounting costs of fertility treatment. It’s heartbreaking.
To reach more people in this predicament I created an online program that strengthens the body so that it can deal more effectively with the underlying imbalances driving much of today’s infertility. I wanted to capture all my experience in one place and provide a step-by-step natural approach to infertility that stood a good chance of helping people get across the line without undue financial stress or overwhelm. Foundations Of Fertility is the result of these efforts.
Some common questions answered...
To answer this I need to explain something.
My original program, which was called Return To Fertility, boasted a 75% success rate. I’ve always been very proud of this am constantly trying to improve it. As you heard in the video above, I then divided that program into two separate programs – an online self guided program called Foundations of Fertility, and a follow-on one to one coaching program called Pathways to Pregnancy .
All of my new clients now start with the Foundations of Fertility program, and approximately 50% of them succeed. The remainder have the option of moving on to Pathways to Pregnancy where we do more advanced testing and personalised 1 to 1 support overcoming difficult issues. The Pathways program is only accessible by application and is exclusively reserved for women who have completed the Foundations program comprehensively.
Approximately 25% more will succeed following this program, though the duration of time needed varies by a lot and can involve referral to a wider range of experts in the field of medicine, trauma resolution, psychology, relationship counselling, energy therapies and more – all depending on need.
No, the programs are deliberately sequential and build on each other. Hopefully you won’t need to go any further than the Foundations program, but if you do please know that the second program relies on you having completed the first one because only then can I be sure that your foundation is solid, and from this we work out what to investigate next.
Yes, the foundation you will build in your body as a result of this program will benefit you no matter what kind of infertility you are experiencing.
Sure, please do. My book Getting Pregnant When The Body Says No, outlines the evidence-based process I use with clients. I’ve done my best to lay it out coherently so that you can follow it on your own. The book tells you how I think, why it works, and how you can go about it yourself.
The Foundations of Fertility program shows you how to do it step by step and offers guidance and support along the way – that’s the difference.
Yes, the program is not suitable for women who
- are receiving treatment for medical conditions requiring several medications (polypharmacy)
- are taking antidepressants or methotrexate
- who have cancer or are receiving cancer treatment
- are being treated for diabetes, reactive hypoglycaemia, bipolar disorder, or any eating disorder
- You can email me here if you have any doubts about eligibility.
Foundations Of Fertility is €350. You will incur additional costs for supplements too. I earn no commission on these as I have arranged for you to buy them at full practitioner discounts where I can.
There is no payment plan for this program, however I do offer payment plans on the more expensive follow on program – Pathways To Pregnancy – should you need to avail of it.
Yes. You will be able to post questions using the program portal which I will respond to regularly.
No. If you are not in menopause yet then there is always hope for a pregnancy. Several of my clients have been in their late 40’s, though the average span is women from 35 to 45.
