B. Why are more and more people “difficult to get pregnant”?
01 Women sleep too late, ovaries prone to premature failure
Many women are irregular and stressed, leading to irregular menstruation, premature aging, and even childbirth has become a problem. If you sleep late, you will not sleep well, and it is useless to make up for it.
And now women are busy at work, mental stress, often stay up late at night, these bad habits, psychological stress often lead to premature ovarian failure in women.
If you want to have children and want to be beautiful, don’t stay up late. When you are young, you owe too much sleep debt, which will affect the quality of your eggs; estrogen levels drop, and women age faster.
02 sweets eat too much, affecting the endocrine
Because of the pleasure that sweets bring to people, women tend to prefer to eat sweets. But women who eat too much sugar are prone to many diseases, such as the common vaginitis.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, sweets are thick and fatty, and they tend to accumulate phlegm and dampness when eaten excessively, which can affect the ovaries and cause ovulation and endocrine disorders, thus affecting the uterus. It will also affect the secretion of estrogen levels in the body and affect ovarian function.
03 usually always sit, easy to stagnant blood stasis
The more you sit for a long time, the worse the circulation of blood and qi will become, the longer you are not relaxed and comfortable, when there is stagnation of blood stasis phenomenon, the health of the period, the uterus are not good.
04 too much fried food, resulting in hormonal disorders
Too much fried food, coffee and cola can also lead to hormonal disorders in the body and trigger polycystic ovary syndrome.
The chemicals in fried foods can affect the body’s control of blood sugar, thus nearly doubling a woman’s chances of developing diabetes during pregnancy. And gestational diabetes can lead to premature delivery, low birth weight babies or stillbirths.
05 Excessive psychological stress can also affect pregnancy
Some women who fail to get pregnant do so because of psychological factors. The more you can’t get pregnant, the more nervous you are, using test strips to test ovulation every day, and going to the hospital to do ultrasound, a thick stack of ultrasound sheets over several months, the more nervous you are, the less likely you are to get pregnant.
06 Indiscriminate use of ovulation drugs, but affect ovulation
In order to increase the chance of conception, some female patients blindly use drugs to promote ovulation, some girls even promote ovulation more than ten times a year in order to increase the pregnancy rate!
However, the number of eggs in a woman is limited, so ovulation will cause a large loss of eggs in a short period of time, resulting in a significant decrease in the reserve function of the ovaries, and eventually even ovulation will not be possible.
The special physiological structure of a woman is a delicate flower, eating, wearing, living, using, walking, need to pay special attention, do not give gynecological disease left to take advantage of.
