Stress affects fertility

Is it true? Why is infertility mostly caused by chronic stress?

The biggest problem of a newly married couple who wants to fulfill the family life is infertility.

Stress affects fertility

 

It is a health problem that is very crucial to the couples who are ready to get pregnant but can’t make it happen. Nowadays, infertility rates of married couples are increasing continuously. There are several key factors causing infertility: stress, medical conditions, social roles, economic problems, and others.

Do you believe that “Stress” can affect ovulation and your pregnancy chance? So, it becomes a difficult issue for some couples because too much stress influences physiology, feeling, and mental state. Prolonged stress may disturb the secretion of some hormones especially follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). As a result, the ovaries are unable to produce mature eggs and women will reach menopause faster than it should be.

Young couple’s reproductive health is a main cause of infertility. It is a complex problem of mind and body. There are several elements that can affect the thought. However, women with ovulation disorder should hurry to visit the doctor for hormone checks. Moreover, trying too hard to get pregnant may lead to the stress on a couple’s relationship. Therefore, when you start facing infertility, kindly share it to your partner in order to let him/her know what problem you are struggling with then fix it together.

In conclusion, getting a consultation with fertility specialist to seek the advice for your physical and mental health is considered the way to cope with infertility. New fertility treatments using assisted reproductive technology can help with fertilization to become an embryo as well as promote embryo implantation in the uterine cavity. Infertility is one of the biggest problems. Hence, if you are planning for pregnancy, the stress also matters as it can lead to infertility. Trying to relieve stress is hard. However, if you can overcome it, there will be a greater chance of having baby more easily.

Tips for people with infertility who want to conceive successfully

  • Calculate ovulation

This is the first step of people who want to have baby by natural fertilization. It’s easy, doesn’t cost any expense, fits for women with regular periods. To calculate ovulation day, the first day of your bleeding is day 1 and 14 days after that is the ovulation day of the next cycle. So, any couples who want to conceive should have sex during this ovulation period.

  • Take ovarian stimulation medications

Take oral medicines to induce ovarian function is another way of women with infertility. These medications consist of hormones that stimulate nervous system to secrete hormones of egg production then induce ovulation in order to make the eggs ready for fertilization with sperm. Definitely, hormonal medications are not over-the-counter drugs because everyone responds to the drugs differently. Severe adverse reactions can be found in some people. Therefore, these drugs should strictly be used under the care and medical advice of a specialized doctor.

  • Eat healthy foods

Another tip is to consume 5 food groups. The foods must be cooked, fresh, and clean. Getting complete nutrition can help stimulate the function of reproductive system efficiently. As well as taking vitamin supplements like egg and sperm nourishing supplements is another option for couples who need extra self-care to completely get all essential vitamins.

  • Change lifestyle

Some lifestyle habits can lead to infertility: sleep late, lack of sleep, inconsistent bedtime, drink alcohol or caffeine, get smoke odor or too much chemicals, and others that may be harmful to the body. These are not recommended to do at all. 

  • Consult with fertility specialist 

For those who have been struggling with natural pregnancy after trying for a while, we suggest seeing the doctor to get medical examination and seek the cause of problem. If the results come out that either party has some health conditions causing inability to conceive naturally or pregnancy difficulty, there are some medical treatments using technology to help overcome infertility. For example, IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) which is a semi-natural method but comes with low success rate. Another method is ICSI. It is a modern technique that has been accepted globally. Moreover, it offers high success rate between 50-80%.

Frequent drinking and hangovers increase the risk of infertility

Frequent drinking and hangovers increase the risk of infertility

Frequent drinking and hangovers increase the risk of infertility

Frequent parties and hangovers can directly and indirectly affect your health, especially for those who are already planning to have children. This makes it even more difficult to have children!

Because frequent and large amounts of alcoholic beverages cause the hormones in the body to function abnormally.

What are the effects of drinking alcohol and hangovers?

In men > Abnormal testosterone production results in the body producing less sperm, poor quality sperm, and reduced fertilization ability.

In women > Abnormalities in the pituitary glands hormone system and hormones that control ovarian function result in no ovulation, abnormal uterine lining, and increased chances of premature birth or miscarriage.

It also reduces the absorption of vitamins and minerals, increasing the risk of malnutrition such as magnesium and potassium. It also comes with negative effects from a “hangover” such as insufficient sleep, restless sleep, headaches, dizziness, vomiting, dehydration, fatigue, etc. These are indirect negative effects that affect the body. 

Therefore, drinking excessive amounts of liquor, beer, wine, or other alcoholic beverages is a cause of infertility and reduces the chances of having children by up to 50%.

If anyone is planning a pregnancy and still has problems controlling their alcohol consumption, you may need to consider consulting a mental health professional or medical professional to find a treatment plan.

Prime Fertility Center does not only provide infertility treatment. What Prime Fertility Center aims for and continuously develops is to provide services to customers with care, consultation, care, and concern for all your feelings, like family members.

When preparing to have a baby, should you eat more animal protein or plant protein?

 

When preparing to have a baby, should you eat more animal protein or plant protein?

 

When preparing to have a baby, should you eat more animal protein or plant protein?

“Protein” is important for people of all ages, and they will receive different benefits. It must be consumed in different amounts at different ages. Protein is easily found in animal products, such as meat, milk, eggs, and processed foods such as butter and cheese.

But for parents who want to start taking care of themselves to avoid infertility, they can begin by avoiding high-fat foods and trans fats, such as margarine, fried foods, and snacks, to control blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of diabetes.

So how should people who want to have children eat protein?

If you are preparing to have children, you should eat 1-1.5 grams of protein per body weight/day. Proteins that should be eaten include fish, eggs, chicken, beef, pork, etc. 

Eating protein from animals should be done in moderation. Although the nutritional value of animal protein is high, fat, cholesterol, and the risk of various dangerous diseases are also increased. 

Plant protein is low in saturated fat, has no cholesterol, is high in fiber, and has fewer calories than animal protein. They can be eaten together, but it is recommended to avoid plant proteins that have effects similar to female hormones, such as soybeans and processed soybean proteins because they can affect the uterus. 

Eating protein with iron will help strengthen the uterus and also help produce quality eggs. In addition, eating green vegetables to increase folate and vitamin B helps accelerate ovulation, resulting in a good chance of pregnancy in the future.

Prime Fertility Center does not only provide infertility treatment. What Prime Fertility Center aims for and continuously develops is to provide services to customers with care, consultation, care, and concern for all your feelings, like family members. Because we understand the feelings, pressure, and stress of those who cannot successfully conceive, the clinic intends to provide warmth and full convenience to those who receive services, with determination and care from a team of expert doctors, embryologists, and a team with extensive experience in providing comprehensive care and consultation.
