Your Weight Determines Your Fertility!

=======================================


Good day to you,

Happy Sunday!

I woke up this morning, thinking about Value! so, i went online as I normally
carry out my research then this disturbing issue came up!

The alarming rate of infertility here in Nigeria.

Do you know?

A woman’s weight can be the deciding factor between getting pregnant and dealing with infertility.

According to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, 12 percent of all infertility cases are a result of a women either weighing too little or too much.

ESTROGEN AND FERTILITY-

Estrogen is a sex hormone primarily produced by
the ovaries and stored in fat cell. During the menstrual cycle, estrogen prepares a suitable environment for fertilization, implantation and nutrition of an early embryo (Nichols 2014).

But when a woman is obese, her body produces too much estrogen, which acts like birth control and lowers her chances of conceiving.


Being underweight is also problematic as it means that the body does not
produce enough estrogen, causing hormonal changes and shutting down the reproductive cycle.

Eating a healthy diet is the first step to achieving healthy body weight.
Unfortunately, westernized foods are the primary food source for much of the world. Although they are fast, tasty and cheap, processed foods act
like poison to the body.


However, eating a diet rich in vegetable protein has been associated with a modest decrease in the risk of infertility (Chavarro et al, 2008). To increase fertility and achieve a healthy body weight, consider eating less
processed foods, especially meat, and more plant based foods.

Please, do something about that excessive Body Fat in your belly/waistline, arm or thigh which may be affecting your health.

Health / How To Deal With Infertility, Menstral Disorder And Endometriosis by funkefertility: 7:06pm On Nov 02, 2015
Good evening, 

I will like to give brief lecture on one of the causes of infertility which is Endometriosis.

What is endometriosis?

Endometriosis is the abnormal growth of cells (endometrial cells) similar to those that form the inside or lining the tissue of the uterus, but in a location outside of the uterus. Endometrial cells are the lining cells of the uterus and are cells that are shed each month during menstruation. Endometriosis occurs when cells like the lining of the uterus grow in or on tissues outside the uterus; these areas are called endometriosis implants. These implants are most commonly found on the ovaries, the Fallopian tubes, outer surfaces of the uterus or intestines, and on the surface lining of the pelvic cavity. They can also be found in the vagina, cervix, and bladder, although less commonly than other locations in the pelvis. Rarely, endometriosis implants can occur outside the pelvis, on the liver, in old surgery scars, and even in or around the lung or brain. Endometrial implants, while they can cause problems, are benign (not cancerous).


Who is affected by endometriosis?

Endometriosis affects women in their reproductive years. The exact prevalence of endometriosis is not known, since many women may have the condition and have no symptoms. Endometriosis is estimated to affect over one million women (estimates range from 3% to 18% of women) in Nigeria. It is one of the leading causes of pelvic pain and reasons for laparoscopic surgery and hysterectomy in this country. Estimates suggest that 20% to 50% of women being treated for infertility have endometriosis, and up to 80% of women with chronic pelvic pain may be affected.

While most cases of endometriosis are diagnosed in women aged around 25 to 45 years, endometriosis has been reported in girls as young as 11 years of age. Endometriosis is rare in postmenopausal women. Studies further suggest that endometriosis is most common in taller, thin women with a low body mass index (BMI). Delaying pregnancy until an older age, never giving birth, early onset of menses, and late menopause all have been shown to increase the risk of endometriosis. It also is likely that there are genetic factors that predispose a woman to developing endometriosis, since having a first-degree relative with the condition increases the chance that a woman will develop the condition.

What causes endometriosis?

The cause of endometriosis is unknown. One theory is that the endometrial tissue is deposited in unusual locations by the backing up of menstrual flow into the Fallopian tubes and the pelvic and abdominal cavity during menstruation (termed retrograde menstruation). The cause of retrograde menstruation is not clearly understood. But retrograde menstruation cannot be the sole cause of endometriosis. Many women have retrograde menstruation in varying degrees, yet not all of them develop endometriosis.

Another possibility is that areas lining the pelvic organs possess primitive cells that are able to grow into other forms of tissue, such as endometrial cells. (This process is termed coelomic metaplasia.)

It is also likely that direct transfer of endometrial tissues during surgery may be responsible for the endometriosis implants sometimes seen in surgical scars (for example, episiotomy or Cesarean section scars). Transfer of endometrial cells via the bloodstream or lymphatic system is the most likely explanation for the rare cases of endometriosis that develop in the brain and other organs distant from the pelvis.

Finally, there is evidence that shows alternations in the immune response in women with endometriosis, which may affect the body's natural ability to recognize and destroy any misdirected growth of endometrial tissue‎.


What are endometriosis ‎symptoms?

Most women who have endometriosis, in fact, do not have symptoms. Of those who do experience symptoms, the common symptoms are:

Pain (usually pelvic) that usually occurs just before menstruation and lessens after menstruation

Painful sexual intercourse
Cramping during intercourse
Cramping or pain during bowel movements or urination
Infertility‎
The pain intensity can change from month to month, and vary greatly among women. Some women experience progressive worsening of symptoms, while others can have resolution of pain without treatment, the goodnews is that the fertility boost helps to get rid of the endometriosis.
