The 6 Tools That Actually Make TTC Easier.
The TTC journey is many things - hopeful, overwhelming, empowering, emotional. What it shouldn’t be is something you feel you have to navigate alone. While no single tool can magically simplify the process, the right mix of support, science, and community can make each step feel just a little more manageable.
Here are 6 genuinely helpful tools that belong in every TTC toolkit.
1. The App: Mindful IVF.
Think of this as your pocket-sized calm button. Designed specifically for people going through fertility treatments, Mindful IVF offers evidence-based meditations, nervous-system regulation exercises, and gentle prompts for the moments that matter most, before scans, during the two-week wait, or on nights when your mind won’t switch off..
2. The Hotline: Fertility Network UK’s Support Line.
When TTC gets heavy (and it does), speaking with someone who truly understands can be grounding. The Fertility Network’s free support line connects you with trained volunteers who offer non-judgmental listening, practical guidance, and emotional reassurance.
3. The Community: Find Your People on Peanut.
No one should have to Google in the dark at 2 a.m. trying to decode symptoms or acronyms. The TTC community on Peanut is full of cycle buddies, IVF vets, first-timers, and people who get the rollercoaster you’re on. Expect honesty, humour, shared experience, and the reassurance that what you’re feeling is normal.
4. The Book: It Starts With the Egg.
If you want the science without the overwhelm, this book is your starting place. Author Rebecca Fett takes complex research and distills it into clear, actionable guidance, covering egg health, environmental factors, and supplement strategies backed by evidence.
5. The Supplements: OVAHer & OVAHim.
Navigating fertility supplements can be… a lot. OVAHer Fertility & Pregnancy Support + OVAHim Advanced Sperm Support were created to take the guesswork out of it. With targeted nutrients and antioxidants designed to support egg and sperm health in women and men, they give you a thoughtful, research-aligned foundation.
6. The Daily Nervous-System Reset.
Whether it’s a 10-minute walk, a grounding breathwork routine, or a quiet journal moment, a small daily reset can do wonders. Consistency - not perfection- is what supports your resilience through unpredictable cycles.
