7 FERTILITY FACTS PEOPLE DONT KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT

Introduction

• Infertility is a topic that is surrounded with a
  lot of taboos. This prevents free discussion
  about the topic, which consequently leads to the
  propagation of many myths. For example, there
  still exists a belief that only the female
  partner is to blame if a couple fails to conceive
  naturally. However, statistics do not support
  this assumption. It has been found that among
  couples who seek fertility treatment, the fault
  lies with the male partner in over one-third of
  the cases. Similarly, a couple is tagged
  infertile if they are not able to conceive a
  child in the first couple of attempts. However,
  its perfectly normal for a healthy and fertile
  couple to attempt pregnancy for several months
  without success. The key is to keep trying in
  accordance with the female partners ovulation
  cycle.

Fertility issues affect men and women equally,
its gender neutral.

• In over 30 of infertile couples, male-factor
  infertility is the primary cause. Female-factor
  infertility is the main cause in another 30 of
  cases with the remaining infertility issues being
  a combination of both.

4
Getting pregnant can take time, even for young,
fertile healthy couples.

• In any given month, a healthy and fertile couple
  only has a 20 chance of getting pregnant. Trying
  to conceive for several months without success is
  considered normal and not a sign of anything
  problematic.

5
Too much of anything is bad, even exercise.

• While its important to be healthy, excessive
  exercise should be avoided as it can affect
  fertility in men as well as women. Men especially
  should be careful of testicular heat as it can
  harm their sperm quality.

6
Pre-pregnancy health is important.

• The diet, health and lifestyle of each partner in
  the period leading up to the pregnancy can have
  an impact on the childs long-term health, affect
  their adulthood and even stretch into the next
  generation. 

7
Excess weight can affect fertility.

• Obese and overweight women struggle with
  irregular menstrual cycles. Irregular refers to
  cycles that last 31 days or longer or skip a
  month. This causes infrequent ovulation, which
  makes getting pregnant difficult.

8
Lifestyle choices influence fertility.

• Lifestyle choices are proven to affect a man or
  woman's ability to conceive a child. Before
  seeking expert assistance, its a good idea to
  evaluate everyday habits and see how they might
  interfere with fertility.

9
Diet plays a key role in fertility

• A fertility diet can help a woman conceive
  faster. While fertility-affecting factors like
  genetics and age cannot be controlled, dietary
  choices can be. For e.g., avoid processed and
  sugary foods as they can affect ovulation.
