Obesity and fertility
By admin | August 28, 2007
We all know about how weight and obesity can affect our health. But, recent studies show that there is a significant link between female obesity and infertility. Australian scientists have proven that food, which contains a lot of fat, can cause ovarian damage.
Australian scientists from Australian University of Adelaide are trying to warn people and young women about obesity, and how it can affect pregnancy and ability to get pregnant. They did a research on animals and found out that fat cells have great impact on ovaries and make eggs unable to develop into embrios.
The real reason for all this is a protein that’s in the cells which are suppose to help ovaries make nutritious substances that are very important to conceive.
The scientists believe that, with the help of adequate medications, these conditions are possible to avoid.
