3 Issues that Affect FERTILITY of Couples

3 Main Factors Affecting Fertility in Both Genders - Key Points:

• Smoking:

  
  The effects of first-hand smoke are well documented.
  
  2nd hand smoke (inhaling other people's smoke) - insidious and just as deadly.
  
  3rd hand smoke (find toxins in your furniture, etc.) - impacts ovarian aging, etc.

Reversible within a year after stopping smoking.

• Cell phones and Laptops:

Should you keep your cell-phone in the front pocket or back pocket?

Or even on your pelvis at all?!

Affects motility of sperm.

And then there's the HEAT from your laptop (not to mention the electromagnetic emissions) which lowers sperm count.

Using a laptop-pad to dissipate the heat is ... false security!

Note: 30% of infertility stems from the MALE (contrary to popular belief).

So, it's a double whammy for sperm cells - lower motility AND sperm count!

•  Lifestyle, Stress, Alcohol... (Non-genetic, Non-congenital Issues):

May take longer to conceive with high stress levels, insufficient sleep, and hgh alcohol intake.

Steroids, obesity, herbicides, TV-watching, etc. impact sperm-count / sperm-normality negatively.

The message is clear: Dry out for a while (both partners) if you wish to conceive.

Some countries are proactive in trying to stop the decline in their (aging) populations due to decreasing birth rates by providing incentives or assistance to couples. Check out what your local agencies provide and take it from there, if this applies. One effect of the different birth rates or fertility of different groups mean that the demographic dynamics of a country or region may change or is changing significantly and within a relatively short time.

*"Infertility Rates are Rising as Sperm Counts Drop"

"One couple in the film described the waiting room at their infertility clinic as similar to an emergency room – packed with lines extending down the hall. Infertility is more common than many think these days. An estimated 1 in 6 American couples struggle with getting pregnant each year¹ and there's compelling evidence that hormone-disrupting environmental chemicals are partly to blame.

The problem with low sperm counts has become so severe that the World Health Organization has had to continually drop what’s considered a ‘normal’ sperm count to lower and lower levels over the last several decades, lest too many men be classified as infertile.

Chemicals that may disrupt sperm count and quality are pervasive in today's modern world. They lurk in personal care products, food containers, medical tubing, toys and more. Bisphenol-A (BPA) and phthalates are two of the most well known culprits..." 

We tend to take our fertility for granted and may not be aware of how chemical and other pollutants affect it until we try to start a family. So what better time than now to learn how to help ourselves and protect our fertility >

Infertility treatments

What Kind of Infertility Treatments?

 

Infertility is a global public health concern and affects approximately 10% - 15% of couples worldwide. This condition may stem from numerous anomalies in the body, ranging from infections and cysts in the ovaries and reproductive tract, to the disproportionate secretion of hormones by the glands. Infertility treatments are many, and are of various kinds. The best way to tackle it is to identify the exact cause of this condition and then alleviate it.

The Real Cause of Infertility

What Are The Real Causes of Infertility?

Infertility can be defined in two ways: as inability to conceive after a year of regular sexual intercourse without contraception, or as repeated ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages or perinatal loss. Male and female specific factors account for about 30% of the infertility causes (individually);the combination of male and female causation leads to an additional 20% and the remaining 20% are caused by uncertain origins.

Signs of Infertility

What Exactly is INFERTILITY?

The problems with either conceiving a child, or with carrying out the pregnancy to its eventual fruitful end, fall under the definition of infertility. Infertility is the incapability of an individual to become pregnant, in case of females, or the incapability to induce pregnancy, in case of the males. The inability of an individual to carry out a pregnancy to its full term is also dubbed infertility. How does one recognize infertility? What are the signs of infertility?
