A few words about INFERTILITY

When it comes to infertility, my thoughts are as follows:

With the exception of special situations, such as anatomical disorders, women with no eggs available, menopause, very low sperm counts in men or defective sperm, etc., I treat many cases in my practice by improving lifestyle habits. For example, in traditional Eastern culture, women who want to get pregnant are guided and encouraged to significantly improve their self-care, especially in terms of the quality of their diet, rest and healthy exercise. This is and always will be the main thing for men who want to produce quality sperm. For both of them, good lifestyle habits are fundamental to providing the best conditions for fertilization and maintaining pregnancy, especially in the first few weeks, which are crucial and during which many losses occur.

Along with improving habits, it is essential to assess deficiencies and excesses, as well as imbalances of nutrients, and especially hormones and neurotransmitters. If necessary, replacement should ideally be done with bioidentical hormones. Many hormonal deficiencies can cause infertility, such as hypothyroidism (including a lack of T3), low DHEA levels, cortisol and insulin disorders.

Women undergoing in vitro fertilization often receive very high doses of non-bioidentical hormones, which are foreign to the body, for a prolonged period. This can upset the overall hormonal balance if pregnancy doesn't occur. It's important to be aware of this! If pregnancy does occur, the high levels of HCG and progesterone generally help to rebalance the body, sometimes even improving the previous situation.

Hugs to all of you, I wish you luck, success and good self-care, with God's help, which is always fundamental!

*I'm not an infertility specialist, but as many patients who come to me have this issue among their complaints, I thought I'd share my opinion on the matter.

*If you don't have good lifestyle habits, your body is forced to function far from optimally. This can lead to dysfunction and inflammation of the body and brain due to increased stress, resulting in symptoms, illnesses and even sequelae. This doesn't just apply to low fertility, but to hundreds of possible combinations of health problems. Find out what these lifestyle habits are at https://icaro.med.br/15habitos/.
