Manage episode 486413236 series 3641039
Lifestyle factors play a significant role in infertility, impacting both men and women’s reproductive health. Poor diet, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, and high stress levels can disrupt hormonal balance, reduce sperm quality, and impair ovulation. Obesity or being underweight can also affect fertility by altering hormone levels, while excessive exercise or sedentary habits may further complicate conception. Environmental exposures, such as pollutants or chemicals, alongside irregular sleep patterns, can exacerbate these issues. Adopting a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress, and avoiding harmful substances can improve fertility outcomes for many individuals.
