Newly married couple Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are trying to start a family. They have been visiting fertility doctors for the same.
The Poosh founder recently opened up about her fertility journey on an episode of “The Kardashians.” Kourtney said a doctor told her to drink husband Travis Barker’s semen “four times a week“. This was apparently to increase their chances of conception. Medically, this advice has no grounds in reality.
The eldest Kardashian said the doctor claimed doing so would “improve” her thyroid levels. “I can’t remember what he said, if it was low or high.”
“Well, he told me that the thing that would help it was drinking his cum like four times a week,” she said, pointing to her husband. “Love this doctor,“ Barker responded.
The couple didn’t confirm whether they tried following the advice or not. They did describe the experience in the past tense. Further, they discussed new approaches with Martha Soffer, an Ayurvedic medicine practitioner.
Drinking semen is not part of a fertility plan. The Ayurvedic medicine practitioner made this clear. While Kourtney is a big promoter of Ayurveda for wellness, the practice is not a typical detox that people can pick and choose from to boost their health. It is a long-term approach for achieving balance in all aspects of life.
The concept of Ayurveda is talked about a lot in Poosh.
Kourtney Kardashian And Travis Barker’s Fertility Journey
The couple is now legally married. They had a grand wedding in Italy. They are now chronicling their fertility journey in season one of the new Hulu show.
On Thursday’s episode called “Where I’ve Been and Where I Wanna Go,” Kardashian detailed their “pre-cleanse.”
“We’ve had no caffeine, no alcohol, no sex, no working out, no sugar. We feel amazing,” she said.
Cameras followed them to Soffer’s spa. There, they each received personalized treatments for seven consecutive days.
Kourtney took a ginger foot bath to bring “warmth to the womb” to help prepare for the baby. On the other hand, Barker receive a personalized massage and was seen struggling to meditate.
Kardashian opened up about her journey with IVF in April 2022 to Entertainment Weekly.
“It’s a beautiful thing that we’d love to have to happen, but the journey is a bit hard for any woman who went on it,” she said.
