Summary
There is recent interest investigating diet and time to pregnancy, suggesting higher intakes of fruit, minimal intake of fast food and sugar sweetened beverages, and a diet lower in glycemic load, may improve time to pregnancy. There is minimal recent literature on paternal diet and impact on fertility. Present advice to women with polycystic ovary syndrome is in line with international recommendations for lifestyle management to improve reproductive outcomes; and for gestational diabetes, prepregnancy may be an optimal time to improve dietary intakes, particularly through consumption of an overall healthy dietary pattern or a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern.
