There is a certain relationship between pre-pregnancy diet and infertility. The more common reasons are as follows:
1. Inadequate nutrition: Inadequate nutrition may cause abnormal ovarian function, affect endometrial development and embryo formation, thereby affecting pregnancy.
2. Overnutrition: Excessive caloric intake and obesity may lead to irregular ovulation, abnormal ovarian function, reduced testosterone secretion and other problems, thus affecting fertility.
3. Bad habits: Bad habits such as smoking and drinking may damage reproductive organs and affect the secretion of reproductive hormones, thereby affecting fertility.
4. Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as air pollution and electromagnetic radiation may cause damage to eggs and sperm, thus affecting pregnancy.
Therefore, a correct pre-pregnancy diet and lifestyle are crucial to health and fertility during pregnancy. It is recommended to eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low-fat dairy products, nuts and fish before pregnancy, pay attention to the intake of necessary vitamins and minerals, and avoid bad habits such as smoking and alcohol abuse.
The impact of malnutrition on fertility before pregnancy:
Malnutrition has a great impact on fertility before pregnancy. Malnutrition can lead to poor physical condition, which reduces the normal function of the reproductive system and affects the production and maturation of sperm and eggs. This will affect fertility.
Malnutrition can also affect menstrual cycles and ovulation, affecting women\’s fertility. In addition, malnutrition can reduce sexual desire and sexual performance in both men and women, and reduce fertility.
Therefore, both women and men preparing for pregnancy should maintain a balanced diet and nutritional intake, especially ensuring adequate intake of high-quality protein, vitamins and minerals. This helps improve fertility and reduce the risk of infertility.
