Hey, it's Milena, Registered Nutritional Therapist, Fertility and Women's health expert.
I'm here to help you decode your body using the functional medicine model that looks at the body as a whole. Everything is connected.
What you can expect
The aim of this mini program
This 6-8 weeks program is an immersive experience crafted to align with your health (or fertility) goals and to give you a taster of the power of personalised nutrition with a functional medicine approach (see FAQ), which looks at your whole body, e.g. not just your hormones in the case of fertility. The goal is for you to feel "ready and excited" again to be on your journey, knowing that all you do is personalised to you and your situation. No more second-guessing and trying a million things.
Pay the equivalent of one monthly instalment of my longer 1:1 Nutrition Programs, and see the difference
This mini-program is a spin-off from one of my most popular 1:1 Nutrition Programs, and also at the same time kind of trial period for you. I have created it because I want to make it as easy as possible to join me on my mission to elevate fertility care and nutritional status using the power of personalisation and nutrition. You only commit to one monthly payment (which can be further split - see below) and see the results it brings, before you decide to proceed further.
8 weeks or 60 days are all you need to see for yourself
I am pretty confident this new mini program model is still effective because my clients have big haha moments and start seeing the difference in a short amount of time (in their energy, their skin, their weight OR even in their hormones and menstrual cycles) in as little as 2 consultations. It all gets even more personalised after that, but the first 2 consultations are were the big discoveries are made.
What happens after this mini program is finished
You have the chance to continue working together (as a couple OR solo if that's your scenario). Or you can choose to leave it at that. Up to you. No strings attached but I'm confident you'd walk away with much more awareness about how you can make shifts in your health or fertility and a personalised plan of dietary and supplement recommendations for your unique circumstances.
Why I'm offering this
Working with a nutritionist for 4 months
feels like a big ask for some
I get it, I was always battling with the idea of "doing it all on my own" and not needing any help. Surely I could google things, right?
But it was only when I dug deep in my own health that things started making sense. And it took a long time on my own. In fact, this was the main reason I went back to college and studied nutrition - which took 4 years! I wish that I knew then what I know now as a fertility nutritionist, it would have made things much easier and straightforward. Instead of going in circles and trying lots of things that didn't work or stopped working for me (and for us as a couple).
However, I am confident that focusing on real nutrition and testing helped me fall pregnant naturally and have my children at age 37 and 41 against all the odds and despite what the doctors were saying. Whilst feeling and continuing to feel the best I ever have. And now I get the honour to see the same in my nutrition practice, with my clients.
I just want to show that it doesn't have to be complicated and that working with me an on your nutrition for 8 weeks can bring big shifts for you. If you wish to explore deeper testing during that time, then wonderful, as we we can go even deeper.

""[The thing that I liked the most is] Your passion and rigour for your work, not leaving any stone unturned. Being able to have a direct line for regular support was extremely appreciated - I also learned so much from you! Much of what we learned together I can now replicate on my own. Loved all the tips and hacks in particular."

"My pregnancy test arrived today so I took another test. I can’t believe it, but... I got a positive result!!! I’m amazed!! I just can’t quite believe it yet but wow!!! I’m still in shock. I’m so delighted but it feels surreal.
It’s amazing to think the difference that my diet has made in such a short amount of time. I’m so glad we didn’t wait for months and months before getting support 💕.I can’t wait to talk on Tuesday about next steps"
Fertility Client, V, Age: 34
Natural Fertility Support, BFP after 1 month
"Before seeing Milena, I had been trying to figure things out on my own with limited success, Luckily, I was recommended Milena by another nutritionist as I was finding it hard to find the right person in a confusing social media marketplace. Whilst working with Milena, I was able to get and stay pregnant, which was my initial reason for seeing her. What I liked the most about Milena was her personal care, attention to detail and genuine desire to help. To anyone who is sitting on the fence and is unsure whether to consider working with Milena, I would say “just do it”"

Natural Fertility Support after Miscarriage for TTC baby n. 2, now mum of 3
"As a couple in their early 40s attempting for our first child through IVF, we signed up to Milena's program in spring 2023, just a couple of months before our first egg collection. All our 3 x EC in the year produced 1+ euploid, one of which I'm currently pregnant with.
Milena is warm, personable and a wealth of knowledge in nutrition and fertility. Working with her helped us familiarise ourselves with using our health data to base our lifestyle and supplementation changes on as well as exploit NHS services more, which we wouldn't otherwise have known that we could and how. Overall, it was priceless to have an unbiased third-party nutrition specialist whom you can turn to in the inevitably turbulent time going through IVF, and Milena's response time is unparalleled."

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this program for couples or individuals?
This program is only for one person. Even though I believe wholeheartedly that, when it comes to a preconception journey, both partners in the couple should prepare together for optimal outcomes, there is only space to support one person in this program, in order to get the maximum benefits.
What does functional medicine have to do to with nutrition?
I will use exactly the same approach that I use with my longer programs, which is based on Functional Medicine. Functional Medicine looks at the body as a whole, not as separate systems i.e. fertility is not separate from your general health and certain imbalances in other areas e..g. in gut symptoms, mood or skin can tell us more about what may be going on and what needs to be focused on to improve fertility and your overall health as well.
(NEW!) This mini program now offers some opportunities for functional medicine testing, based on your main goal For example you can choose the payment option that includes vaginal MB (microbiome) testing or gut MB testing. You can also now choose to include a CGM (continuous glucose monitor) for 8 weeks. The is so you can experience for yourself the type of advanced testing and personalised recommendations that I can offer.
What are the Advanced Testing recommendations offered on the Program?
The Advanced Testing recommendations include Functional Medicine testing, which can only be done privately. I offer this type of advanced testing in my practice to all my clients, which has been very valuable because we've often been able to find the root causes of any imbalances or presenting symptoms. Some examples of advanced testing are extra blood testing that the GP wouldn't be able to do, or Vaginal Microbiome Testing (now included as part of the payment options for this mini program in 2 instalments), Gut Microbiome Testing (now also included in the payment options) , DUTCH testing, Nutrigenomics testing. We can discuss this as we start working together and I'd be able to make a more specific recommendations based on you case history and priorities.
How long does this mini program last?
This mini program is designed to show you what it looks like and feels like to work on your nutrition in a personalised way with an expert nutritionist specialised in fertility and women's health. The consultations will be done with 2-3 weeks space between them and the program will last up to 60 days from your first consultation. If any testing is done and we're waiting for results, we'll bear that in mind and there will be some flexibility.
What happens at the end of this mini program?
After your second consultation, you have the option to decide whether you want to keep working together or not. If you wish to continue, we can involve the other partner in the couple, if not there'll still be plenty to cover to fully optimise your fertility.
What if I decide to stop after this mini program, can I use any of your other programs or services?
Absolutely no problem, It's all up to you. With all being well, you could jump on to m other 1:1 Programs later on or you could even use my individual mini consultations, bearing in mind I will only be able to provide recommendations on specific topics and no extra support in between consultations will be provided with mini consultations.
What is the refund policy on this mini program?
Once we have started working together on our first consultation, a lot of work would have happened behind the scenes to prepare for meeting you and providing the best support possible. Also, I'd be reserving a space for you in my calendar which would otherwise go to another client. So the full payment of £350 would not be refundable.. If you change your mind before our first consultation, I would only be able to refund half of the amount (£175) of this mini program. Any testing ordered can be refunded but there will also be an admin fee of £50. CGM monitoring cannot be refunded once ordered.
What are the payment options?
To make this program more affordable - I'm well aware of all the financial worries that can impact a fertility journey - you can choose to pay in one payment of £350 or you can pay in 2 monthly instalments (£175).
If you choose to pay the Test Me For One Month mini program in 2 instalments, the second payment of £175 will be taken automatically 30 days after the first one and probably just before our second consultation.
This would allow to spread the cost even more. If you decide to continue working together as I hope at the end of this mini program, £350 will be deducted from the entire 1:1 payment.
Please also review the payment options including testing as discussed above.
