Infertility in Women

Research has shown that about 25% of women experience infertility in their reproductive years. As a woman grows older, her chances of infertility increase. This may be due to higher risk of chromosol abnormalities that occur in the eggs of older women or other health problems that may interfere with fertility.

Women who are at risk of experiencing infertility includes those with eating disorders like anorexia or bulimia, those on low-calorie diet, strict vegetarians if they lack some essential nutrients in their diet, marathon runners, dancers, and those women who exercise intensively. Eating healthy is a solution to infertility.
