The Food & Fertility study is asking thousands of people going through fertility treatment to share information about what they eat and drink. Researchers will then look at whether eating habits have any connection to how well fertility treatments work — including sperm quality and pregnancy success rates.
Right now, doctors don't know much about how diet affects fertility treatment outcomes. This study aims to fill that gap and may help guide future recommendations about eating habits for people trying to conceive.

You would complete an online food frequency questionnaire (a survey about what you typically eat) once. The researchers will then use information from your medical records and national health registries to track your sperm quality (if applicable) and whether your fertility treatment results in pregnancy and live birth. The study runs through 2024, so you'll be part of a long-term research project designed to help future patients.
