Infertility Causes - 6 Steps You Can Take Right Now to Reverse Infertility

Posted: 02 Dec 2009 09:53 AM PST

You don't have to turn on The Learning Channel (TLC) to see a parade of families with sets of multiples to realize infertility is becoming a more common issue in our society. However, before you spend thousands of dollars on infertility treatments and procedures such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI) you might want to take a closer look at your lifestyle to determine if there are steps you can take to increase your chances of conceiving naturally.

Common Infertility Causes for Men and Women

Many infertility causes are not a result of any type of genetic defect rather they are a result of the toxic environment we live in and the poor choices we make on a daily basis. You may not be able to overcome a genetic defect through natural remedies but you can certainly reverse lifestyle choices which are negatively impacting your reproductive health. Some of the common causes of infertility, which can be reversed, affecting men and women are:

Obesity - Men who are significantly overweight may not be as fertile as their counterparts who are at a healthy weight.
Pesticides - Overexposure to pesticides can result in a reduction of sperm production making men less fertile.
Substance abuse and tobacco usage - These chemicals can lower the sperm count and the quality of sperm.
Medication - The use of certain medication can make conception difficult for women.
Caffeine - Excess consumption of caffeine makes women less likely to conceive.

Traditional Chinese Medicine as a Fertility Treatment

Some people do not realize traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can be used to eliminate some infertility issues. TCM may not be able to reverse genetic conditions such as irregularly shaped sperm in men or fallopian tube damage in women but it can help with many physiological impairments such as irregular menstrual cycles. Acupuncture, in particular, can help to regular the menstrual cycle for the purpose of improving fertility. Both men and women can turn to acupuncture and massage as a natural way to improve fertility. These procedures ca can also be beneficial for helping to flush toxins out of the body and increase fertility.

Six Steps You can Take Now to become More Fertile

Now that you know a little about some of the reversible causes of infertility, you may be wondering what steps you can take to make yourself more fertile and improve your chances of conception.

Lose weight - Your body operates optimally when it is at an ideal weight. This includes your reproductive health as well. For this reason, if you are overweight, it is a good idea to start eating balanced meals, cutting out junk food and adding exercise to your daily return.
Eat organic - The pesticides used on fruits and vegetables and hormones fed to cows and chickens are resulting in shifts in our own hormonal balances. Your body cannot properly process these chemicals. By choosing organic produce, milk, meat and eggs whenever possible you are taking steps toward improving your overall health and shifting your own hormonal balance back to normal.
Quit smoking - You probably already know tobacco smoke increases your risk of certain cancers but it also adversely affects your reproductive health.
Cut out caffeine - Excessive consumption of caffeine makes reproduction so by eliminating it you can boost your fertility.
Reduce stress - By taking measures to eliminate stressors in your life, you may also increase your fertility. These stressors may be related to work, friends or family. You can reduce stress by exercising more, meditating, getting massages. It may also be necessary to remove yourself from stressful situations, if possible, such as a stressful job or relationship.
Your cycle - Women can track their basal temperature to gain a better understanding of their cycle. The basal temperature typically rises during ovulation. By determining when you ovulate, you can increase your chances of conception.

Food During Pregnancy - 3 Harmful Foods You Should Never Eat While You're Pregnant

Posted: 02 Dec 2009 09:28 AM PST

Food during pregnancy is always a concern for a pregnant woman. You want to eat delicious food but you don't know if it's healthy for you and your baby. This concern is completely normal and justified. There are certain foods you should stay away from if you want to eat in a healthier way since you are now pregnant. Here are some of the 3 worst foods that you want to stay away from.

1-Microwave dinners

Microwave dinners are harmful not just for their packaged "quality," but mostly for the fact that you need to microwave them to enjoy them.

Microwaves use radioactive waves to heat the food by burning the meal and changing the chemical construction. The result would be you eating the harmful radioactive "lumps" you thought were real dinners.

Microwaves should be the first thing to get rid of in your home when you're pregnant.

2-Canned foods

Canned foods are one of the worst things to eat if you're pregnant simply because they have traces of rodents and rodent poo. Yes, that is fact and even the factories that make them admit to it. Further, they are, needless to say, not as nutritious as fresh foods (and never will be).

3-Pop/Soda drinks

Pop and soda drinks not only bloat your belly, but they also bloat the rest of your body. You do not need more bloating while you're pregnant, so stay away from these fizzy drinks if you want to be slimmer and experience less bloating.
