Generally healthy women do not need to worry too much about egg problems. As long as they do the following points, they can basically guarantee to have a healthy egg. Of course, clinically, it often appears that women of childbearing age have problems of one kind or another with their eggs and ovaries, but the woman herself is in very good health. I will share these problems with you one by one in the following chapters. Here, let me first talk about how a healthy and normal woman can ensure to have a healthy egg. These points must also be followed by healthy women or women with fertility disorders. This is to ensure that they have a healthy egg. The most fundamental prerequisite for healthy eggs.
1. 23-30 years old – the most suitable age has a high pregnancy success rate
I once saw a 40-year-old successful woman in the clinic. When she was young, she struggled for her career and missed the best opportunity to get pregnant. When she finally decided to have a child, she encountered various problems and had difficulty getting pregnant. After various treatments, she finally had to do in vitro fertilization, and the result remained the same. The pregnancy stopped within 3 months. When I last saw this physically and mentally exhausted woman, she was 43 years old, and having a child of her own had become a luxury. This woman cried to me again and again: \”Dr. Yu, what I regret most now is that I didn\’t listen to your advice to have a child sooner.\”
All the tears of regret cannot exchange for the passage of time. There are many women. Like this woman, they all regret their youth and ignorance throughout their lives. As a member of nature, human beings must comply with the objective laws of nature. There are appropriate moments for \”flowering\” and \”fruiting\”.
For men, sperm will be renewed every 30 days, while for women, eggs are with the woman from birth. Lifestyle, environment, and age will all affect the quality of the eggs. According to the physiological laws of women, fertility is strongest at the age of 25, slowly declines after the age of 30, and declines rapidly after the age of 35.
Therefore, the best childbearing age for women is 23 to 30 years old, but women’s fertility is more susceptible to age than men’s. There was an in vitro fertilization experiment: the eggs of women over 40 years old and the sperm of young men formed the first group, and the sperm of women under 30 years old and men over 50 years old formed the second group. As a result, the success rate of the second group was significantly higher than that of the first group. This shows that age has an important impact on egg quality (ability to conceive).
On the other hand, older women have more risks than younger women even if they succeed in conceiving. For example: the weight of premature babies or full-term newborns is lower than that of normal babies of the same gestational age, and unexplained stillbirths are also increasing., the rate of congenital malformations has also increased relatively. At the same time, when women reach middle age, the joints of their ischium, pubic bone, ilium and cuboid bone have basically ossified, forming a fixed pelvic cavity, so older women are most likely to have prolonged labor or dystocia. When the fetus is delivered, it can easily lead to labor difficulties, which greatly increases the risk of various complications for the mother. At the same time, it is also very easy for the fetus to stay in the womb, causing fetal distress. This kind of distress syndrome poses a threat to the fetus. In mild cases, it can lead to fetal heart and brain ischemia and hypoxia. In severe cases, it can lead to irreversible brain damage or fatal asphyxia.
The main complication for older first-time mothers is pregnancy-induced hypertension, which can easily affect maternal and fetal health and life safety. If mixed with other diseases, it can lead to premature degeneration of placental function, which is even more detrimental to the fetus.
2. Keep your body healthy – eggs have fewer mutations and pregnancy is easier
The healthier a woman’s body is, the lower the probability of chromosomal mutations in her eggs. Not only will it be easier to get pregnant, but the miscarriage rate after pregnancy will also be reduced. The worse the health, the higher the probability of chromosomal mutations in the eggs, the poorer the quality, and the greater the probability of infertility and miscarriage. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure good health and receive treatment as soon as possible if a disease occurs.
3. Healthy sex life – improve egg vitality and facilitate sperm entry
Refuse menstrual sex. The mucous membrane of the reproductive tract is damaged during menstruation. If you have sex, sperm and its antigens will enter the blood, opening the door for sperm to come into contact with immune cells, and AsAb antibodies will easily be produced. Once this antibody is produced, the sperm injected into the body will agglutinate and lose its motility, making it impossible to successfully conceive. Among women with unexplained infertility, about 80% have AsAb antibodies found in serum tests. On the other hand, sex during menstruation can cause pelvic infection, endometriosis, etc., and reduce egg vitality.
In addition, the survey found that women who maintain a regular sex life are 2.5 years younger than women who have no sex life. In addition to loving life more, regular orgasm experience can increase vaginal and cervical secretions. These secretions can act as \”escorts\” and \”pioneers\” for sperm, weakening the acidic environment in the vagina and making it easier for sperm to survive. Moreover, when you are sexually excited, the cervix will also open the door for sperm to enter, making pregnancy possible.
4. Maintain a healthy weight – neither too heavy nor too light is easy to conceive
Women with exercise habits are less likely to be overweight, and weight is also related to Related to a woman’s fertility. Experts have found two extremes – people who are too heavy or too light are less likely to get pregnant. The reason is that too little will cause the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to secrete insufficient follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, causing the ovaries to reduce egg production, gradually leading to chronic anovulation and infertility. Being overweight will cause an increase in androgens in the body, leading toCystic ovary syndrome and hirsutism further lead to chronic anovulation and infertility.
5. Reasonable diet and lifestyle – improving ovulation ability
A German fertility expert has done an experiment: the participants in the experiment will The women were divided into two groups. One group ate a vegetarian diet except for a small amount of cheese and milk, while the other group ate normally. After the six-week weight loss plan, the researchers found that both groups of subjects had lost the same amount of weight, and under the same amount of exercise, 78% of the women who were vegetarians had stopped losing weight. The physiological phenomenon of ovulation, and almost all groups have shorter than normal menstrual cycles. But in the group eating a normal diet, 67% of women ovulated normally and had no significant changes in their menstrual cycles.
On the other hand, you should try your best to quit smoking and drinking, and avoid overeating and malnutrition. The toxicity of cigarettes can directly act on eggs, causing you to enter menopause early. Long-term smoking will damage the entire endocrine system of the body and affect the function of the ovaries. Drinking alcohol, insomnia, and irregular eating will have a serious negative impact on women\’s reproductive health, leading to a decrease in egg quality and fertility.
6. Supplementing food with vitamin E – maintaining the ovaries, which is the foundation of pregnancy
A good way to maintain the ovaries is to increase the intake of cooking oil . Because various edible oils contain a large amount of vitamin E, also called tocopherol, animal experiments have found that appropriate supplementation of vitamin E can delay the process of gonadal atrophy and play an anti-aging role. The daily intake of vitamin E is 150 to 300 mg.
7. Wear less tight clothes – reduce ovarian and uterine diseases
The latest research report by British scientists pointed out that tight clothes around the uterus and fallopian tubes Great pressure is generated. When the tights are removed, the pressure on the fallopian tubes will weaken, but the pressure on the thicker uterus will remain for a period of time. The pressure difference causes endometrial cells to leave the uterus and enter the ovaries, forming endometriosis. According to statistics from a key hospital in Yunnan, about 10% to 15% of women of childbearing age currently suffer from endometriosis, while Indian women who wear loose saris are less likely to suffer from endometriosis.
8. Regular exercise – keeping the fallopian tubes open
Exercise is a long-term task. Sitting for a long time can cause hemorrhagic embolism and block the fallopian tubes. . It is recommended that women who plan to conceive should exercise for about 30 minutes a day. Or stand up and stretch at least every 40 minutes at work. For example, walking, swimming, yoga, etc. after get off work can effectively improve the body circulation disorders caused by sitting for a long time.
Appropriate physical exercise can help women improve their physical fitness and ensure the quality of their eggs. Therefore, for anyFor a woman who is planning to become pregnant, she should exercise regularly for a period of time before becoming pregnant. For example, 3 months before planning a pregnancy, perform appropriate and reasonable exercises or related physical exercises, such as jogging, calisthenics, swimming, Tai Chi, etc., to improve physical fitness and lay a solid foundation for pregnancy.
9. Wear less high heels – flat shoes can promote pregnancy
Experts remind that wearing high heels for a long time will make the body tilt and the pelvis will also Then tilt. Over time, it will not only cause the pelvic cavity to shift, but also easily cause the uterus to tilt forward, increasing the probability of infertility. So, it’s better to prepare a few pairs of comfortable flat shoes.
10. Use good contraception – reduce the pressure of pregnancy on the uterus and ovaries
Recurrent miscarriages after frequent unwanted pregnancies are the greatest overdraft of pregnancy. First, forceps scrape the endometrium, which thins the uterine wall and reduces the endometrium. Even excessive curettage involves part of the basal layer of the uterine membrane, making it difficult for a fertilized egg to implant. Secondly, post-abortion surgery is prone to infection, which can easily cause gynecological inflammation, thereby affecting sperm motility and survival time, and also reducing pregnancy. After artificial abortion, the pregnancy is suddenly interrupted and the hormone levels in the body drop suddenly, which affects the living environment of the eggs and affects the quality and vitality of the eggs.
11. Reduce vaginal douching – reduce ectopic pregnancy and gynecological inflammation
Vaginal douching should not be performed too frequently and can be used under the guidance of a doctor when necessary . Because frequent douching will destroy the balance of the vaginal environment. The survey found that those who frequently douche with douching equipment are 3 to 4 times more likely to have an ectopic pregnancy than those who never do vaginal douching. In addition, vaginal douching may also cause salpingitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. Therefore, if you suffer from gynecological inflammation, please seek medical treatment in time.
12. Adjust emotions – maintain ovarian ovulation function
When stress persists or occurs frequently, the body will produce a large amount of a substance called cortisol. The release of \”anxiety hormones\” increases people\’s sense of tension. Excessive secretion of a single variety of hormones breaks the original hormone balance, leads to endocrine disorders, and affects the ovarian ovulation ability. Therefore, appropriately reducing stress and relieving tension can effectively ensure your \”good pregnancy.\”
A healthy body is an essential asset for pregnancy. If you want to become pregnant more easily, you must start with a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, a balanced diet, and appropriate vitamin supplements. Of course, it is also necessary to improve the daily environment. Car exhaust, industrial emissions, computer radiation and other substances can cause chromosomal mutations in female eggs and affect fertility.
