Amara is 29. She and her partner Mark have decided that “someday soon” they’d like to start a family—but between work deadlines, brunch plans, and a half-marathon on the horizon, someday keeps slipping further away.
One afternoon Amara scrolls past a headline: “Half of Canadian pregnancies are unplanned.” She pauses. How can that be, in 2025? A quick search buries her in medical jargon—folic-acid dosages, vaccination schedules, STI screenings. The more she clicks, the more lost she feels. Mark shrugs: “Guess we’ll ask the doctor at our next check-up.” Spoiler: they won’t; their appointment is eight minutes long and mostly about blood-pressure numbers.
Amara’s story isn’t unique—our 2025 community survey found that 69 % of people have never even talked about pregnancy planning with a health-care provider. Four in ten told us they’d never heard the phrase preconception care. And when we asked why, the top answers were: I don’t have time… I’m not sure what’s trustworthy… I’m worried about privacy.
The irony? National and global health bodies—from the Public Health Agency of Canada to the World Health Organization—insist that the single best moment to protect a future pregnancy is before it starts. They recommend folic-acid supplements, STI treatment, chronic-disease tune-ups, weight optimisation—the works. Yet even doctors admit the gap: 60 % say they rarely get to cover preconception guidance during routine visits.
So where does that leave Amara and Mark—and the thousands like them who want clarity now?
Enter PreConnix
Imagine Amara opening one app, answering a handful of friendly questions (two minutes, tops) and receiving her Reproductive Readiness Score™ on the spot—plus a personalised checklist that says, in plain English:
“Great job on vaccinations! Next: add 0.4 mg folic acid, swap one sugar-drink for water daily, book that dental cleaning you’ve postponed.”
If she wants, she can tap a button and chat privately with a nurse. Mark can do the same on his phone—because fertility, after all, is a team sport.
Our survey shows 88 % of people would jump at a tool like this, and three out of four said they’d be even more eager if live-chat support were built in. That’s PreConnix: marrying the evidence institutions champion with the convenience real people crave.
The takeaway
Health agencies have issued the blueprint; our data prove the need; PreConnix turns both into action.
Amara has already started her plan. Mark’s following his. Your turn: take the free assessment now and give your future family the healthiest beginning—starting today.
