Hormonal health impacts fertility from "summary" of FLO by Alisa Vitti

Hormonal health is a crucial factor that plays a significant role in determining your fertility. Your hormones are like messengers in your body, communicating important information to your reproductive system. When your hormones are out of balance, it can have a direct impact on your ability to conceive. For example, if you have high levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, it can disrupt the delicate balance of your other hormones like estrogen and progesterone. This can lead to irregular menstrual cycles, anovulation, and difficulty in ovulation. Without regular ovulation, it becomes challenging to get pregnant. Similarly, if you have insulin resistance or high levels of insulin in your body, it can also interfere with your fertility. Insulin resistance can cause an imbalance in your sex hormones and disrupt the ovulation process. This is why conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which are characterized by insulin resistance, often lead to fertility issues. Furthermore, thyroid hormones also play a critical role in your fertility. An underactive or overactive thyroid can affect your menstrual cycle and ovulation, making it harder for you to conceive. Thyroid imbalances can also increase the risk of miscarriage if left untreated.
  1. Hormonal health is the foundation of your fertility. By focusing on balancing your hormones through proper nutrition, stress management, and lifestyle changes, you can improve your chances of conceiving. Understanding how your hormones impact your fertility is key to optimizing your reproductive health and increasing your chances of getting pregnant. By addressing hormonal imbalances and supporting your body's natural rhythms, you can enhance your fertility and pave the way for a healthy pregnancy.
