Fuhao\'s INCREASING FERTILITY

INCREASING FERTILITY

Women with much older partners are more likely to have MISCARRIAGES because babies who are conceived when a damaged sperm fertilizes the egg are often miscarried in the earliest part of pregnancy and older men tend to have more abnormal sperm.

Even when menstruation and ovulation appear normal, exercise can decrease progesterone levels that might prevent an embryo from implanting.

Stretching routines, yoga (Siddhasana) and relaxed strolls (under 2 miles) are good tension reducers amd can be useful substitutes for vigorous exercise. Muscles of the pelvic floor need to be kept strong. How? Will cover in the next report..

In her job as a supervising chef at a well-known restaurant, lillian was on her feet for 8 to 10 hrs a day, with little opportunity to relax. In addition, Lillian ran for recreation and to keep fit. At 5 ft 8'' tall, she likes to maintain her weight at 120 pounds. When she started attending the Mind/Body Program for Infertility, she had been trying to get pregnant for 2 years and the cause of her infertility couldn't be explained. She was 33 years old. When she learned about the possible connection between too much exercise and infertility, Lillian slowed down. She gave up running and walked more slowly at work. As part of her effort to take life more easily, she also practised the relaxation routines and meditation exercises taught in the program. 'Overall, I became much calmer. For a month I gave up trying to get pregnant. I relaxed about everything. I didn't worry about when to have intercourse and I got pregnant in 6 weeks. It was entirely unplanned.' She now has a less demanding job and takes care of her baby.

Inadequate NUTRIENTS may weaken your IMMUNE SYSTEM to the point where any sickness might diminish your fertility. Eat regular 3 meals a day and take food rich in nutrients and low in fats. Steaming, braising and cooking your food in a wok preserve vitamins and minerals . Take 1 or 2 nourishing snacks everyday as well. Eat more FRUITS and VEGGIES everyday. Take unsaturated fats from vegetables and oily fish; fewer cereals and starchy foods, white bread, potatoes and pasta; a little red wine as well. If you're not an enthusiastic vegetable/fruit eater, you may want to eat dark green and orange/yellow vegetables such as Swiss Chard, Kale, sweet potatoes, carrots, as well as red, orange and yellow fruits. Pink grapefruit has more nutritional value and watery but red water-melon is surprisingly nutritious as well. You can have fruit salads as snacks after meals everyday. Which NUTRITION VALUE is BEST for you? Will be discussed in the next report..
