Being underweight or overweight can lead to infertility and this goes for both male and female. So therefore if you're underweight, try gaining some weight and if you're overweight, try losing some. By doing these your chances of getting pregnant will increase.
- Get proper nutrition
Eat a healthy, balanced diet. This should consist of carbohydrates, proteins, fats (yes, fats), enough water, mineral salts, and vitamins. Also, you should ensure that you are getting all of the necessary requirements of vitamins and minerals that your body needs from supplements if you're not getting it from the foods that you eat. These nutrients are important for lots of things. One such thing is the production of healthy sperm and eggs.

Processed foods often contain preservatives and additives and these can interfere with your hormones.

Pesticides (herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides) are not used in the production of organic produce (fruits and vegetables) and so these chemicals aren't on them. These chemicals can play a role in infertility by interfering with your hormones also.
