Things You May Not Know About Your Fertility
1. Your fertility is mostly determined by genetics, which influences how many eggs you
are born with.
Doctors believe that the number of eggs you have at birth determines the length of time
you will remain fertile. At birth, women have about two million eggs in their ovaries.
For every egg ovulated during your reproductive life, about 1,000 eggs undergo
programmed cell death. Other things, such as smoking cigarettes and certain types of
chemotherapy, can accelerate egg cell death and promote an earlier menopause.
2. Most women have regular cycles lasting between 24 and 35 days. This is usually a
sign of regular, predictable ovulation. Women who do not ovulate regularly have
irregular menstrual cycles. Those who do not ovulate at all may have a genetic
condition called polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
3. Basal temperature charting does not predict ovulation.
An older method of tracking ovulation involves taking your oral body temperature each
morning before getting out of bed. This is called basal body temperature. This method
is used to spot a rise in basal temperature, which is a sign that progesterone is being
produced.
The main problem with using this method is that your temperature rises after ovulation
has already occurred. This makes it more difficult to time intercourse at an optimal
time for conception.
A better method is to use over-the-counter urine ovulation predictor test kits such as
Clearblue Easy. These kits test for the hormone that prompts ovulation, which is called
luteinizing hormone (LH).
4. Most women with blocked fallopian tubes are completely unaware they may have had a
prior pelvic infection.
About 10 percent of infertility cases are due to tubal disease, either complete
blockage or pelvic scarring causing tubal malfunction. One major cause of tubal disease
is a prior pelvic infection from a sexually transmitted disease such as chlamydia.
These infections can cause so few symptoms that you may be completely unaware your
tubes are affected.
This is why fertility physicians will order a dye test of the tubes, called a
hysterosalpingogram (HSG), if you have been trying and failing to conceive for 6 months
or longer.
5. In most cases, stress does not cause infertility.
Except in rare cases of extreme physical or emotional distress, women will keep
ovulating regularly. Conceiving while on vacation is likely less about relaxation than
about coincidence and good timing of sex.
6. By age 44, most women are infertile, even if they are still ovulating regularly.
Even with significant fertility treatment, rates of conception are very low after age
43. Most women who conceive in their mid-40's with fertility treatment are using
donated eggs from younger women.
7. Having fathered a pregnancy in the past does not guarantee fertility.
Sperm counts can change quite a bit with time, so never assume that a prior pregnancy
guarantees fertile sperm. Obtaining a semen analysis is the only way to be sure the
sperm are still healthy!
8. For the most part, diet has little or nothing to do with fertility.
Despite popular press, there is little scientific data showing that a particular diet
or food promotes fertility. One limited study did suggest a Mediterranean diet with
olive oil, fish and legumes may help promote fertility.
9. Vitamin D may improve results of fertility treatments.
A recent study from the University of Southern California suggested that women who were
undergoing fertility treatments, but had low vitamin D levels, might have lower rates
of conception. This vitamin is also essential during pregnancy. At Pacific Fertility
Center, we recommend our patients take 2,000-4,000 IU per day.
10. Being either underweight or overweight is clearly linked with lowered levels of
fertility.
The evidence in recent years is that obesity is clearly linked with a longer time to
conception. Having a body mass index less than 18 or over 32 is associated with
problems ovulating and conceiving, as well as problems during pregnancy.
The World Health Organization estimates there are between 120 and 160 million couples struggling with
infertility worldwide.
"IVF is made to sound complicated, but the fact is that the early embryo is not very demanding," Says
fertility experts.
A human embryo doesn't need much beyond some basic solutions, a steady pH level and constant
temperature, he said.
Realising your dream of parenthood.
It is the dream of most couples to have their own children as part of their relationship. In India 1 in 6 couples
will have problems conceiving.

investigations and treatment, by offering a one-stop diagnostic and treatment service for infertile couples.
