PRE-IVF WELLNESS: HOW LIFESTYLE CHOICES CAN BOOST FERTILITY SUCCESS

Yet, the path to success involves more than the procedure itself. The body's preparedness for fertility treatment is crucial in influencing IVF results. The lifestyle choices made before starting IVF have a powerful impact on fertility. Focusing on pre-IVF wellness means adopting healthier habits that prime the body for conception. This includes nourishing the body with proper nutrition, staying physically active, and steering clear of harmful substances. When these factors are addressed, couples increase their likelihood of a successful pregnancy and enjoy a more seamless IVF experience.

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION

Excessive alcohol intake is a well-established risk factor for infertility in both men and women. A systematic review from 2017 highlights that consuming more than 12.5 grams of alcohol daily can impair female fertility by disrupting hormonal balance and ovulatory cycles. For men, the effects of alcohol are similarly detrimental, with studies showing a direct link between alcohol consumption and an increased prevalence of abnormal sperm morphology. Reducing or eliminating alcohol before starting IVF can enhance reproductive health, improving both egg and sperm quality.
