Women who regularly drink more than half a cup of black or green tea may double their chances of getting pregnant, according to one scientific study.

Yes, indeed, the researchers, said that the benefits of tea may be related to some compound in the brew, or it may be that tea drinkers have better health habits than coffee drinkers do.

Experts also advise women who want to get pregnant to shed excess kilos if they're overweight.

Tea is good but it contributes to bloating because of the caffeine. Speaking of caffeine, this is not good when you are TTC.

I agree with raquel_q. Caffeine can be detrimental if you are TTC. Also if you are having fertility treatment or taking fertility drugs, it would be wise to stay away from tea, coffee, soda and other colored beverages as it can affect your kidneys while undergoing treatment.

So ladies, stay off coffee and tea for a while.

neither. stay away from caffeine and caffeine products for the meantime.

Im not really fond of tea but Ive heard a lot of things about green tea over the years. In Japan over 75% of the male population smoke and yet they have very few incidents of stroke and heart disease. This is all thanks to the benefits of drinking 8-10 cups of green tea per day.

However, tea contains caffeine which is bad for women TTC and also pregnant and nursing mothers.

FertiliTea is an herbal tea blend used to encourage fertility in women. this is also a green tea.

I love green tea becoz this can lessen my stress and purposely i won't get fat... but ihave to be careful also with my fertility coz i dnt want yet to get pregnant..

Drinking green tea may even help not only with female fertility, but with male fertility problems as well. Some green tea advocates suggest that green tea may help with low sperm count, and even with sperm motility.

If you enjoy green tea, there's no harm in drinking a cup or two a day while you're trying to conceive. But don't expect it to significantly increase your odds of getting pregnant.
